Jet Hotel's Twenty

Denver's most exclusive nightclub has arrived. If you're tired of waiting in lines and want a swank club to call your own, then Twenty is the spot for you. Hidden beneath the Jet Hotel's 19 guest rooms, Twenty features private liquor lockers, a custom bar, a sexy dance floor and is only accessible with a special membership card.

Inspired by the speakeasy days of LoDo, Twenty is reminiscent of a time when all the private clubs and hotels were connected by secret tunnels beneath the city. Each hotel had a private room, where the privileged could gather without being disturbed, and a special knock was necessary to gain entry.

To unlock the door to privilege, please contact Cassandra at Twenty directly for membership details.

Fridays & Saturdays, 8 pm – 2 am
