The Historic Alma House Inn is locally owned and operated.

The Alma House was built in 1898 as a miner's hotel.   Most of the construction and interior remains original.  However you will find modern amenities such as wifi and electric heat as well as private baths in most rooms.  Step back in time while enjoying luxurious furnishings from the turn of the 19th century.

Bridget Hughes founded the Alma House near the end of the 1800's.  Constructed in 1898, The Alma opened for business in 1902.  She saw the need for a hotel to house and feed the many miners who were flooding the area at that time.  Building on the south side of the rowdy downtown area of "Notorious Blair Street", she found a perfect location for the hotel.  Blair street was a rough and tumble part of town full of saloons and bordellos.  Many a miner stumbled his way to his room at the Alma House after a wild night on the town after a hard day in the mines.

I had a great stay prior to a ski day at Silverton. The included breakfast really helped me to get on the road quickly.
