Balfour Riverfront Park

I love visiting my grandmother in law at The Balfour. The place is beautiful and the valet parking convenient. The staff is also great. I like eating at The Peacock restaurant. The service at the restaurant has really improved but the new chef has yet to wow me. The food and service today at the 3rd floor restaurant was horrible! What is going on?

I highly recommend Balfour at Riverfront. My mother lived there for four years. First in Independent living then assisted living. We were very pleased with her experience from start to finish. All the staff were very supportive of her needs. My mother was on hospice care in the end and everyone was so kind and delivered excellent care. Victor was a godsend. He was so professional and knowledgeable in end of life care. My sister and I never once worried that my mother was not receiving the care and attention she needed. All of the caregivers in assisted living treated my mother with love and respect. It was a gift that my sister and I will never forget.

Alex and Joe curated an amazing tour and experience for my Mom. I am so grateful for the love and caring they showed her. Balfour is a spectacular senior living building with fantastic food and friendly caring service.

I moved to Balfour Riverfront Park 3 1/2 years ago. I was attracted by the elegant decor and the downtown location. Balfour has surpassed my expectations. I’ve made many good friends. Before COVID we took advantage of the many cultural events and the good restaurants. Plus at Balfour we have performances by the Lamont school of music, Active Minds( lecture and study series), exercise classes, access to PT and OT on site, games, art and more. During Covid we felt very safe and the staff went out of their way to keep us safe and engaged. I was not eager to move to Denver. I am so grateful to have found Balfour Riverfront Park.

My wife and I identified Balfour Riverfront Park in 2009 as the place we'd like to live when we need it. My cancer diagnosis in August 2023 made a move to Balfour necessary sooner than we'd hoped. We've now lived at Balfour for one year (Oct'23 to Oct'24). In general, it's a great place to be for us. But our most disappointing experience is that management is more budget-driven than excellence-driven. We'd been led to believe that Balfour would pay higher prices for excellence and pass those costs to residents in the form of higher rents. In numerous ways we've found that isn't true. For example, 1) A ridiculously complex meal charge system has replaced a simple, understandable system. 2) Hours of Transportation availability have been significantly curtailed, and Transportation requests re
