"Historic is an understatement. The inn, in the heart of Mason City, is the last remaining hotel in the world designed and built by Frank Lloyd Wright. The design is pure Prairie School-style—especially the dramatic lobby (reminiscent of the now-demolished Imperial Hotel in Tokyo which it preceded by fifteen years). Opened in 1910, the hotel was converted into office space and apartments, the building was shuttered in 1972, but after a full restoration certified by the Frank Lloyd Wright Foundation in Scottsdale, Arizona, it reclaimed its rightful place once again as an iconic hotel in 2011. Stickley furniture in guest rooms adds to the authentic appeal of this priceless piece of history, which is listed in the National Registry of Historic Places." - CNT Editors
