The Historic Plains Hotel

$ | 1600 Central Ave., Cheyenne, WY, 82001, USA

With its stunning lobby, this downtown landmark was built to be the height of elegance in 1911 and still oozes historic character even though it's no longer a top choice for people seeking a modern, trendy atmosphere. In its day, the hotel hosted several presidents (and presidents to be); since then, it's been worn a bit by the years. See if you can get a tour of Room 444, where long ago a young bride named Rosie killed her new husband and the prostitute he'd just met, before turning the gun on herself (you can still see the bullet holes in the window). Legend has it, you can also sometimes still spot Rosie roaming the halls.

Pros

  • Great downtown location
  • Tons of Old West charm
  • Good value

Cons

  • Dedicated parking is two blocks away (though there is closer street parking)
  • Small elevators (so cowboys wouldn't bring their horses up)
  • Small bathrooms
