"A Denver Landmark"
Overall Score4.0/ 5
The Oxford Hotel had its opening day on October 3, 1891, the first hotel built in Denver. Just recently I had the opportunity to visit with some staff members of The Oxford Hotel, situated in the historic district of Downtown Denver, known as LoDo (lower downtown). The area is filled with unique restaurants and shops and located only 1/2 block from Denver's Union Station.The Oxford Hotel sees constant rejuvenation and modern upgrades while continuing to preserve and restore the many historical details that make it unique. Entering the Oxford’s extravagant lobby is a step back in time, to be sure, but with the provided comforts of the 21st century, it remains one of Denver’s most luxurious landmarks.80 uniquely appointed guest rooms on 5 floors with elevators were the floor mats let you know what day it is. Antique oak furniture, marble and carpet floors frescoed walls, silver chandeliers and stained glass glistened inside.The McComick's Fish House and the Cruise Room Martini Bar are also located in the hotel.I loved this hotel and recommend The Oxford to all travelers including catering needs for receptions, fund raisers & corporate events.
