Marble walls, stained-glass windows, frescos and sparkling chandeliers adorn the public spaces. Rooms are large and decked out with imported English and French antiques. The Art Deco Cruise Room Bar is one of Denver's swankiest cocktail lounges.In a simple red sandstone building, this classy boutique hotel exudes historic elegance. Although the Oxford began its storied history as a Victorian masterpiece in 1891, it went through several transformations as the decades progressed. In the 1930s architect Charles Jaka remodelled the place as an Art Deco showcase. Then in the 1980s a three year renovation brought back some of the original architectural details that had been hidden behind false ceilings for more than seventy years. Today the Oxford pays homage to both eras, with rooms featuring either Art Deco or Victorian decor. Public areas are graced with sterling chandeliers and impressive marble floors. Rates vary dramatically based on season and demand; check the website for the best rates and well-priced packages in the off season.

The Oxford is in the heart of Denver's coolest neighbourhood, historic LoDo. Spread out around Larimer Square, Lower Downtown is a great place to spend an afternoon eating, drinking and window shopping. Try walking down Blake or Market streets, both are packed with sidewalk cafes, coffee shops and plenty of funky and oddball boutiques selling everything from really cool gag gifts to gorgeous cashmere sweaters and hand-tooled cowboy boots.
When the Oxford opened its doors for the first time in 1891, guests entering the plain sandstone building were amazed at the extravagance found inside. Included were, multiple dining rooms, a barber shop, library, pharmacy, telegraph office, high-end saloon, and, of course, horse stables to park your ride overnight!
