PARSIPPANY, N.J. (Sept. 5, 2024) – Guests looking to escape the hustle of everyday life and recharge amidst the shadows of Pikes Peak can now indulge in the charm of The Mining Exchange, a Registry Collection Hotel. The newly renovated, 128-room hotel, nestled in the heart of downtown Colorado Springs, marks the first for Registry Collection Hotels in the United States.
Once home to the bustling stock exchange for gold and silver sourced from the Rockies, guests can now take in the hotel’s rich history while enjoying modern luxuries including multiple onsite culinary outlets, a full-service spa and on-site art gallery, The Vault. Guests can also visit nearby attractions like the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Museum, just a short distance away.
First introduced in 2021, Registry Collection Hotels are hand-picked to offer elevated guest experiences and inspire the wanderlust of today’s travelers. Just three years later, the rapidly-growing portfolio now includes more than 20 world-class hotels around the globe spanning the stunning coast of Chalikidi in Greece to the bustling city center of Panama City, with nearly 10 more hotels in its pipeline.
“Today’s affluent travelers increasingly crave the bespoke and immersive experiences that boutique, independently minded operators can offer. Through Registry Collection Hotels, we’re committed to curating these one-of-a-kind experiences for guests—all while helping owners tap into the unparalleled scale and resources of the world’s largest hotel franchisor.”
