We were taking photos for my wife's birthday and saw time cherry statue in front of Balfour. A security person told us to leave as it was private property and we had to leave even though it was a public road. Bad form. Bad look.

Families describe Balfour Riverfront Park as a visually stunning, historic downtown Denver community with a devoted core of staff who form close relationships with residents, but reviews reveal a stark split between the beautiful setting and a management/operations side that many say has grown less reliable over time. Long-time residents often report years of satisfaction and strong care, especially in memory care, while others describe serious lapses in staffing, dining consistency, and communication as the community changed ownership and directors.

My mom has been here for over a year in assisted living. She had lived in other Balfour facilities previously. I will say from walking in to leaving this place is five stars. The food is incredible. Sunday brunch is a must. The nursing staff takes such good care of my mom and she has many complications. I'm so grateful Balfour came to us in a time of need.
