Boulder Dam Hotel

Completed in December 1933, the Boulder Dam Hotel was built to house the large number of tourists who wanted to visit Boulder Dam, as Hoover Dam was called at the time. Boulder City residents, however, were reluctant to lose the once-elegant symbol of their town's beginnings. They formed the nonprofit Boulder Dam Hotel Association and purchased the hotel in 1993. With funding from the state, the county, the city, and private donors, the structure was remodeled and reopened with twenty-two guest rooms. The restored hotel is now owned by the association, along with the Boulder City Arts Council, the Boulder City Chamber of Commerce, Boulder City Museum and Historical Association, and the city. In addition to the hotel, the building now houses the Boulder City and Boulder Dam Museum, a restaurant, and several shops and galleries.
