3 Best Hotels in Cody, Cody, Sheridan, and Northern Wyoming

Named for Agnes Chamberlin, who opened a boardinghouse on this spot in 1904, this artfully restored redbrick inn a block off Cody's main street counts Ernest Hemingway and Marshall Field among its many past guests. Some rooms have exposed brick, claw-foot tubs, antique furnishings, and hardwood floors. Cody's original courthouse is now a stand-alone suite that sleeps six. A glass conservatory adjoins the courtyard and is ideal for sharing a cocktail or a glass of wine. There is also a peaceful outdoor garden. The uniformly gracious staff members help make a stay here memorable.

Here you have the chance to stay at an authentic, upscale 33-acre Western ranch, just a 15-minute drive from downtown Cody, without spending a mint or having to contend with a minimum-stay requirement. In one of the seven guest rooms a wooden fence stands before a wall-to-wall picture of the Tetons, and in another you can bed down in quilted comfort in an old chuck wagon. More options? Sleep in a genuine sheepherder's wagon, circa 1897. Guests don cowboy hats for breakfast, which is cooked over an open campfire, while an Australian sheepdog and two horses show off their repertoire of tricks. Ask head wrangler Jerry about his autographed guest soap collection.
