OUR STORY
Built in 1917, Hotel Vendome was originally built to help with the demand for housing in Prescott. People were moving from the East for the mining opportunities and the health benefits of the dry desert air. When the hotel was built it housed 31 rooms and 16 bathrooms for guests, stating it was "the classiest place in town" Prescott Journal Miner. People have loved the Vendome throughout the last century. In 1983, the building was overhauled. They were meticulous about the amount of preservation they did, even down to the numbers on the guestroom doors. So although you have modern amenities such as private bathrooms, air conditioning and heat, you still see all of the charm of the craftsmen woodworking, and a few of the vintage clawfoot tubs from the past.
