The Wort Hotel, built in 1941 and a member of Historic Hotels of America® since 2001 was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.
Historic Hotels of America is the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation® for recognizing and celebrating the finest historic hotels across America.
The inspiration for The Wort Hotel began with Charles Wort, a homesteader who dreamed of opening a luxury hotel in Jackson Hole. In 1917, he bought four lots in downtown Jackson, but it was not until 1941, that his two sons, John and Jess Wort began construction of the hotel. With its Tudor Revival architecture and rustic interiors, The Wort Hotel was an immediate success, serving as a gathering place for locals and a sought-after destination for visitors. The hotel's famous Silver Dollar Bar with 2,032 inlaid 1921 Morgan Silver Dollars was added in 1950. Since 2006, the hotel has been fully restored, boasting spacious Western-themed guestrooms, each uniquely configured, individually appointed, and tastefully accented.
