Oxford Hotel & Oxford Annex

Denver County

The grand opening of the Oxford Hotel occurred in 1891, and the new hotel quickly became popular due it its ideal location, a block from the Union Station railroad center, as well as its excellent service, fine cuisine, and moderate rates.

Oxford Hotel & Oxford Annex

In 1912, the owners erected an annex to provide 200 additional rooms.  Prominent early Denver architect Frank Edbrooke designed the original building, while the team of Robert Willison and Montana Fallis created the white terra cotta annex.
