Denver Wellness District

The Neighborhood

Tucked just south of Denver, Englewood’s “Little Hampden” is more than a dot on the map. It’s a walkable, welcoming enclave anchored by world-class hospitals and grounded in community.

The Stay on Marion puts you at the center of it all: close to Swedish Medical Center and Craig Hospital, but also steps from coffee shops, casual bites, cozy bars, and neighborhood charm. This is a place shaped by care, and it shows.

Walkable, comforting, and full of character

The surrounding area blends hospitals and care centers with tree-lined streets, locally loved restaurants, and small businesses. Whether you’re out for a bite, a morning coffee, or just need to clear your head, it’s all within easy reach.

A District Designed for Wellness

The City of Englewood officially named this part of town the Wellness District, centered around Swedish Medical Center and Craig Hospital. Though you’ll also hear locals refer to the area as “Little Hampden,” the spirit is the same: a close-knit district built around healing, hope, and neighborhood care.

And it’s not just hospital patients. The area welcomes travel nurses, visiting physicians, clinicians in training, and extended families — all of whom need more than a place to crash. They need a neighborhood that holds them gently while life is happening.
