Same order as the list above: ranked by a hotel's total event space across all its meeting rooms. The largest single room is shown here, so that column can run out of order. Space figures come from each hotel's meeting-space records. A dash means the hotel's data doesn't list that detail, not that it's unavailable.

Frequently asked questions

How does billing work when booking rooms for a large conference in Aurora?
Engine offers consolidated invoicing, so you get one invoice for all your guest rooms instead of tracking individual bookings. You can choose from multiple payment options, and there's no membership fee to use the platform. This makes it easier to manage expenses and reconcile costs after your event.
How far in advance should I book hotel rooms for a conference in Aurora?
For a large conference or corporate event, it's best to start looking at least three to six months out, especially if you need a significant room block. Properties with substantial meeting space, like the Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center (with its largest event space running about 48,000 square feet), can fill up early during peak seasons. Booking early gives you more options and better availability.
What should I compare when choosing between conference hotels in Aurora?
Look at the size of each hotel's largest event space and how many people it can hold. For example, the Marriott Denver Airport at Gateway Park has a largest space of about 3,200 square feet with capacity for up to 320 people, while the Gaylord Rockies can accommodate up to 4,809 people in the Aurora Ballroom. Also compare the number of event spaces (in case you need breakout rooms), total guest rooms, and proximity to the airport serving Aurora.
Can Engine help with both the guest rooms and the meeting space for our event?
Yes. For the guest-room block, you can book 8 rooms or fewer yourself on Engine, and for 9 or more rooms, Engine Groups handles the booking. For the meeting or event space itself, you can find and request venues through Engine Spaces, which connects you to meeting and event spaces. This way you can source both the accommodations and the venue through one platform.
How do I book a block of guest rooms for conference attendees staying in Aurora?
If you need 8 guest rooms or fewer, you can book them yourself directly on Engine. For 9 rooms or more, Engine Groups handles the room-block booking for you. Either way, Engine connects you to hotels across Aurora with the meeting capacity you need.
Why don't you show rates for these hotels?
Hotels give Engine rates they only allow us to show business travelers, so a public page cannot list them. Create a free account with your work email to see them.
Is Engine free?
Yes. An Engine account is 100% free and without commitment, and you can leave anytime. Sign up with your work email.
