A very lovely stay at the Oxford hotel
Pros:

This was my first day at the Oxford Hotel, but won’t be my last. I was very impressed with the service at the hotel, from the doorman to the front desk clerks to the housekeepers.
The hotel itself was lovely and reflects the long history the hotel has been in existence. The historic details have been well preserved.

Best hotel I have stayed at in Denver so far
Pros:

This has been by far my favorite hotel to stay at in Denver. From the charming architecture (it's the oldest hotel in Denver), to the friendly staff to the cute little speakeasy tucked in the corner--it is such a fun and unique experience.

The room itself has a real key and you go up an old school elevator to get there. The rooms were large, quiet and comfortable and my stay included a free bottle of wine, which is always a plus.

I didn't get a chance to check out the restaurant as I had a concert and meet and greet that afternoon/evening and they were closed by the time I got back, but it smelled delicious and the menu was impressive.

Also-shoutout to the staff. They have a hotel car that will take you within 2 miles of anywhere in downtown Denver. The car was in the shop for repairs, so they paid for my Uber. Very, very cool thing to do.

I am planning to stay there again for a trip this week and I am super excited about it. I highly suggest checking them out.

Expected to see a cowboy!
Pros:

We did not know what to expect from this hotel we booked near Union Station. The location was perfect for the train ride from the airport and the Amtrak to Granby, CO. We loved the ambiance of this historical hotel. The pictures of western scenes the time appropriate furniture throughout and the coziness of the fireplace lobby were all excellent. Our room was comfortable. We hope to head back to Colorado in the future and stay again, looking forward to going to the Cruise room when we do.

A Denver Gem
Pros:

The Oxford hotel is a true gem! This was my second time staying in two years. As good as the first. There is so much character and charm throughout the building, but with real modern touches like bottle filling stations and refillable, luxury bath products. We loved our room and drinks at the bar. Used the car service too! Can’t wait to come back!

No crying at the Oxford...
Pros:

Went for AFC championship. Fantastic stay, old school and very few rooms are the same. Right next to Union Station. I went and cried in my homemade Ice cream at union lobby after watching the NFC championship.

Cons:

They charged me more than double for a room that had already been paid for. I booked with booking.com and per paid and the still charged me another $362.00. So I paid over $600.00 for a room that was $300. Bad business

Great location, cool idea of the oldest hotel but it is tired and could use some TLC. The bar is super cool! Love the whiskey tasting -- very period appropriate

Exquisite hotel staffed by ‘yeah…whatever’ front desk.
Pros:

Exquisite and beautiful hotel staffed by ‘yeah…whatever’ front desk. We stayed 3 nights. Not once did they service the room at all in spite of specifically asking at the desk each morning. Only when I raised hell at 6:30 pm on night 3 did they bother to send up towels. Be prepared to do everything you do at home when you stay here. For the price and the star rating we’d have wanted towels, toilet paper and the room/beds made. The excellence displayed by the front door men sadly began and ended right there. Spend the extra few dollars and stay 100’ down the street at the Cromwell. Again, everyone was nice…. But who cares if you don’t do anything?

First class hotel
Pros:

This is one very stylish hotel, beautifully decorated for the festive season.
The lobby area is incredibly comfortable with very kind helpful staff.
My bedroom was absolute luxury, I did find the shower needed modernising as some of its functions were not usable, no room service required during the stay.
This is located in Downtown Denver where much to see is within walking distance.
The union station is within a very short walk and a must visit for everyone.

Holidays at the Oxford
Pros:

The room, bourbon tasting and continental breakfast were great. It was also in a good location in LoDo and next to Union Station. It was an added touch to have a real fire in the fireplace during the cold weather.
