October 26, 2012 - The Curtis, a Doubletree by Hilton, is pleased to announce that Carmen Cruz has been hired to serve as the Assistant General Manager, otherwise known as the “Hotel Whisperer” at Denver's only pop culture-themed hotel.

Managed by Denver's Sage Hospitality, the 336-room Curtis encourages all guests to “Stay Happy with 13 themed guest room floors - including the “TV Mania Floor” and the “Mad About Music Floor.” In the lobby, front desk clerks are always willing to hula hoop with guests and a 5 & Dime novelty store brims with playful treats.

Cruz most recently served as the Assistant General Manager of the Archstone, a contemporary luxury apartment community in Studio City, California. Prior to that, she was the Director of Rooms at the Hilton Pasadena and the Hilton San Diego Bayfront, as well as the Director of Front Office Operations at the Hilton San Francisco. She also spent more than a decade in hospitality management in Spain, including at the Barcelo Hotel Sants and the Fira Palace Hotel, both in Barcelona.

Cruz is a graduate of Cornell University's School of Hotel Administration, the University of California at Berkley and the UB Centro Espanol de Nuevas Profesiones in Barcelona, Spain.

“We are so thrilled to have Carmen and her extensive international background at the Curtis,” said JoAnn Elston, “Leading Lady,” or General Manager of the hotel. “Her experience ranges from boutique properties to 5-star hotels, so she's the perfect person to help us continue to raise the profile and performance of the Curtis.”

The contemporary Curtis features 20,805 square feet of meeting space, including two ballrooms and 15 meeting rooms, as well as complimentary wireless Internet, a state-of-the-art fitness center and a business center. The Curtis is located in the heart of downtown Denver, across from the Denver Center for the Performing Arts and one block from the Colorado Convention Center.
