Touted as the oldest standing hotel West of the Mississippi, the Menger Hotel today has been restored to return much of its 1859 beauty. Inside, visitors can sit in the famous lobby where cattle barons built their empires. The hotel also features an impressive collection of historical artifacts and paintings from the 19th century.
