One of our favorite parts of restoring the hotel is giving historic pieces a new life.

This beautiful parlor set was generously donated to us and has found the perfect home in our Art District Suite (Room 205). Even more special, the furniture originated right here in Bureau County and remained in the same family for several generations before being entrusted to our care.

We're honored to preserve a small piece of local history and share it with our guests for years to come.
