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.

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.
