United operates two large clubs at their Denver hub, at either end of concourse B: as is name indicates, the United Club East is located on the East side of the terminal, while another lounge is available in the West wing.
United Club DEN design
United Club East – Denver, CO (DEN)
The entrance is both central and discreet: automatic doors at the center of the concourse reveal a small reception area and escalators which lead patrons upstairs to the club room.
Denver International Airport is spacious, and the United Clubs are no exception. A grand customer service area above the escalators connects to two large rooms with various seating arrangements conductive to both work and relaxation. Some seats in the connector hallway in the back between the two rooms and opposite the windows offer a comfortable degree of privacy.
The window walls let plenty of natural light in and offer sweeping views on the tarmac and the visually striking main terminal — a sight to behold at dusk.
Unfortunately, the club suffers from a lack of maintenance. The furniture is worn out, power outlets are lacking and are often inoperative, and the paint is peeling off in the bathroom. While the East and West clubs have a similar layout and offer the same amenities, the West club recently went through a much needed renovation and now offers more comfortable seating spaces, new furniture, and power outlets at all seats. In comparison, the East club looks dated and should be avoided if you have time to walk to the other side of the concourse.

United Club DEN amenities
A bar is located in one of the larger rooms. Soft drinks, house wine and well drinks are complimentary, while premium drinks may be purchased. The food selection is standard at all United Clubs; continental breakfast is offered in the morning, while patrons will find soups, salads and snacks throughout the day. The food is tasty and the selection is sufficient for a substantial snack but is no substitute for a meal.
A business center with work cubicles is available next to the bathrooms.
United Club DEN bottom line
Overall, the United Club East at Denver airport Concourse B is a spacious but pretty sad place. While Denver is a major domestic hub, United does not offer any enhanced amenities such as showers, and the club suffers from years of neglect. If you can, walk to the West wing location for a slightly better experience.
The pluses
The views on the tarmac and main terminal.
The minuses
The worn furniture.
The lack of power outlets.
The fact that United often closes one of the two clubs, forcing patrons to walk to the other side of the terminal.

  Worst lounge I have ever seen. Extremely worn leather seats and upholstered furniture. Stains all over the carpets, sticky seats. Tables are cleaned after 2 hours for the first time. Review is about East Lounge.

  Renovations are much needed. Use the West club in the meantime!
