One of Denver’s oldest neighborhoods, Capitol Hill (or Cap Hill) was built by some of Denver’s earliest and wealthiest residents. Gorgeous mansions with unique charm line the streets and capture the richness and beauty of the pre-modern era. This area (and neighboring Cheesman Park) had mostly single-family homes until 1893 when Denver’s economy plummeted during the Silver Crash. Then, the city began building multi-family housing, and some mansions were even split into multiple, affordable units.

Although there is a historic vibe, Capitol Hill is known for great nightlife. An abundance of hip bars, trendy coffee shops, late-night eateries, museums, and old school theaters ensure you always have something to do. East Colfax Avenue is lined with dozens of places you could easily become a regular at. The Civic Center neighborhood sits directly west and hosts festivals, concerts, food trucks, marathons, and more.

This walkable neighborhood is home to many Denver landmarks, including the beloved Molly Brown House Museum, the History Colorado Center, the Capitol Building (not surprisingly), and the Governor’s Mansion.

This neighborhood has a mix of weathered, renovated, and brand new buildings, providing a sliding scale of options and price points available. This means one beds are starting around $1300 for more seasoned but renovated buildings.
