Christine et al,
A helpful website is the Denver Metro Convention & Visitors Bureau's downtown hotel listings at http://denver.org/Listings.aspx?SID=2&LID=140. Please use caution--their definition of "downtown" is much broader than what is walkable to the Grand Hyatt. Some of the hotels I identified from this list that would work in terms of distance are:
Adams Mark/Sheraton
1550 Court Pl
Comfort Inn Downtown
401 17th St
Courtyard by Marriott
934 16th St
Crowne Plaza
1450 Glenarm Pl
Residence Inn by Marriott
1725 Champa
Denver Marriott City Center
1701 California
Hotel Monaco
1717 Champa St
Magnolia Hotel
818 17th St
The Curtis
1405 Curtis St
I'd also recommend checking the hotels through different sites such as expedia.com or hotels.com to see if one offers lower rates than the other. Please let me know if you have any questions.

For Karen and those looking for rooms -
I'm not from the Denver area, but when I called last week, I was given three nearby hotels:
Brown Palace - two blocks away
303-297-3111
[their government rates may be comparable or cheaper than Grand Hyatt conference rate]
Marriott - 2 blocks north
1707 California Street
303-297-1300
Comfort Inn - 1 block away
303-296-0400
Hope this helps.

Well, I guess I left this too late; I called the conference hotel for a room, and they are sold out of rooms at the conference rate. Is anyone still looking for a non-smoking female roommate? Or can anyone suggest a nearby hotel?
