DENVER, CO. June 16, 2015 - The Curtis, a DoubleTree by Hilton is pleased to announce that it has named Zach Lybbert to serve as “Coach,” or Director of Sales & Marketing, at Denver's only pop culture hotel.

The 336-room Curtis is managed by Denver's Sage Hospitality.

“We are excited to have Zach and his extensive sales experience at the Curtis,” said Scott Sloan, “Starship Captain” or General Manger at the Curtis. “The hospitality industry is booming here in downtown Denver and I know that Zach will continue to position the Curtis as top performer in terms of revenue, occupancy and creative marketing and local events.”

Located in the heart of downtown Denver, the Curtis recently completed an extensive $7 million renovation that included upgrades to all 336 guest rooms, a lobby expansion and the creation of 13 “hyper themed” suites all featuring custom art by Colorado artists, unique flooring and decorations. Available suites include a Star Trek suite on the “Sci-Fi” floor and a Jimmy Buffett room on the “Mad About Music” floor.
