DTC to Park Meadows is about 5 miles south on 25 btw so it is essentially the same area that you are looking at.
I will second the Park Meadows Marriott. Just built about a year ago and right down the street from the mall and restaurants. Anything right in the Tech Center clears out on the weekends (its basically a huge office park). The JW in Cherry Creek is an awesome location but its going to be much more expensive. All of Cherry Creek is in walking distance and the mall is just steps away. The Marriott City Center is also good. Very close to the 16th Street Mall and the free shuttle which can take you to LoDo (about 15 blocks away).
