A new luxury brand with ties to Wyndham made its U.S. debut this week in Colorado.
The Mining Exchange, a hotel that collects registersopened Thursday in Colorado Springs, Colorado, as the brand’s first property in the United States. The renovated 128-room hotel was once a gold and silver trading post that originated in the Rocky Mountains in the early 20th century, but today it’s all about modern luxury. Guests can expect a full-service spa, an on-site art gallery, multiple dining options, and easy access to nearby attractions like the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum and Garden of the Gods.
“The Mining Exchange has been a Colorado icon since 1902,” said Bashar Wali, founder and CEO of Practice Hospitality (the company that currently manages The Mining Exchange), in a statement. a statement“Now, some 120 years later, we are honoring that legacy by creating a hotel steeped in local character and human connection, worthy of being the first Registry Collection hotel in the United States. We are proud to join the world-class international hotel portfolio and add Colorado Springs to the global Registry Collection list of destinations.”
We particularly like Blk Mgk, a cafe that serves breakfast and lunch—and also offers tarot readings for those who want to know their future while sipping their morning coffee. Golden Hour is the hotel’s indoor and outdoor cocktail lounge, serving light bites in the evening.
Rooms feature vaulted ceilings and exposed brick with accents of green, wood and leather. Local art, vintage furnishings and Malin+Goetz bath amenities also come standard. Spend the extra money on a suite for extras like a sitting room, day bed and ensuite.
While this may be the first Registry Collection hotel in the United States, it’s just the latest in a series of rapid growth for the brand.
