Facility Overview
The 3801 Quebec St Garage is a five-story, detached covered parking facility serving the Renaissance Denver Hotel & Conference Center as well as nearby visitors in Denver’s vibrant Northeast Park Hill and Central Park (formerly Stapleton) district. Offering multi-level sheltered parking alongside adjacent surface stalls, the garage shields vehicles from seasonal Colorado weather, including harsh winter snowstorms and intense summer hail. The structure features a maximum vehicle height clearance of 6 feet 8 inches (6'8"), accommodating standard passenger sedans, crossovers, mid-size trucks, and standard SUVs. Drivers operating lifted trucks, commercial vehicles, high-roof cargo vans, or vehicles outfitted with rooftop carriers should exercise caution and utilize designated exterior surface parking stalls when available.

Visitor & Driver Tips
Drivers planning to visit should take note of several helpful operational tips. First, check your vehicle roof clearance before entering; standard SUV roofs fit comfortably, but roof boxes, bike carriers, or lifted suspension kits will exceed the 6-foot-8-inch limit. If visiting during major sporting events at Dick's Sporting Goods Park or large multiday conferences, consider pre-purchasing a parking reservation via mobile apps such as SpotHero to secure guaranteed access. Exiting onto Quebec Street during weekday evening rush hours can encounter queue delays at the I-70 interchange; turning toward Smith Road or 38th Avenue offers an efficient alternative route when heading east or south.
