The Benson Hotel and Faculty Club Celebrates its Grand Opening in Aurora, Colorado

The Benson Hotel and Faculty Club celebrated its grand opening on July 18, 2023. The hotel is the new hospitality center for the nationally recognized University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus in Aurora. Long considered the gateway to the Rockies, Aurora has evolved into Colorado’s biotech hub and a health and life sciences research center. The Benson Hotel, a Preferred Hotel & Resorts member, is adjacent to the Fitzsimmons Innovation Community, the new business and residential district focused on medical and bioscience.

The Benson Hotel has been designed to accommodate the needs of the Aurora community as well as the hospitals and the University, offering luxury guestrooms, a full-service restaurant, spacious light-filled meeting facilities, and an elegant ballroom and a garden for weddings and large social functions. The Benson’s 106 accommodations include a mix of guestrooms, suites, and an entire floor of apartment-style suites.

The Common Good, The Benson’s 100-seat restaurant, serves a menu of freshly prepared cuisine created by Executive Chef Donovan Davis, a Four Seasons Hotels & Resorts veteran.

Visitors to The Benson Hotel & Faculty Club will experience a premier Western art collection featuring over 100 original new works by a selection of contemporary Colorado artists led by William Matthews. The Faculty Club at The Benson Hotel will serve as an off-campus, private environment for the CU Anschutz Medical Community leaders and influencers to gather socially.

The Benson Hotel is named for Bruce Davey Benson, the longest-tenured president of the University of Colorado (CU) system, from March 2008 to July 1, 2019. Olympia Hotel Management will operate the hotel, which was developed by Denver-based Aimco.
