Work Gets Underway on Aloft hotel in Broomfield
May 14, 2008

Ground recently broke on the new 140-room Aloft hotel in the northwestern Denver suburb of Broomfield, the Denver Business Journal reported. The five-story, 90,000-square foot boutique property will sit near Arista, a massive $350 million mixed-use development. Saunders Construction is building the hotel, and Stonebridge Cos. will operate it upon its scheduled completion in April 2009. The Broomfield locale will not be the first hotel to carry the Aloft brand in Colorado; Aloft Denver International Airport is scheduled to debut in February of next year, and Aloft Cherry Creek is on target to open in March 2010.
