Hotels in Colorado, USA

As one of Colorado’s fastest-growing economies, as the name alludes, Commerce City is one spot not to skip on your next Colorado wander. A town founded as a junction for railroads and highways, Commerce City is a suburb just outside northern Denver that has since blossomed into more than just a transportation center. Now home to the largest oil refinery in the Rocky Mountain region, Commerce has had a steady trickle of visitors flocking to its streets for the last few decades to enjoy the many offerings and attractions in town. If you like the great outdoors, you’ve come to the right place, as Commerce City boasts 840 acres of public parks and wide open space to take advantage of during your stay. Plan an afternoon of hiking, mountain biking, or even horseback riding from the many nature trails just outside town. And being so close to Denver, you’ll be able to explore the big city by day and relax at top hotels in Commerce City by night.

While staying at resorts in Commerce City, get outside and into unparalleled nature from the Rocky Mountain Arsenal National Wildlife Refuge. This 15,000-acre area of protected land is one of the largest urban preserves in the country and is a sanctuary for more than 330 species of wildlife. If you’re lucky, you might even spot some park locals, like owls, eagles, raccoons, white pelicans, deer, and even bison! Enjoy this public land all afternoon during a nice nature hike, or take an educational tour to learn more about the history and geography of the preserve.

Anyone making a trip to Commerce City should consider a worthy trip into Denver to explore the stunning Denver Botanic Gardens. As one of the most-visited gardens in the country, you can expect to be blown away by the garden’s breadth of species, impeccably maintained grounds, and breathtaking beauty. The garden’s living collections cover plant specimens from around the globe, and features a plant palette that thrives in Colorado’s semi-arid climate.
