About The Company
The Oxford Collection’s hospitality legacy began in 1955 when Curtis O. Baney Sr. acquired the Geiser Grand Hotel in Baker City, Oregon. In the late 1960s, he expanded with the Cimarron Inn in Klamath Falls, setting the foundation for a portfolio of suites and hotels dedicated to comfort and service. In 1988, the Baney family launched Oxford Suites, offering affordable and spacious accommodations for business and leisure travelers across the western U.S. The collection grew in 2010 with opening of Oxford Hotel Bend, an eco-chic boutique hotel in downtown Bend, Oregon. Today, the Oxford Collection provides a range of accommodations, blending upscale elegance with refined comfort. Oxford Suites Located in 14 cities across California, Oregon, Washington, and Idaho, Oxford Suites offers a welcoming stay with complimentary breakfast and signature amenities.
