Tonopah, NV - Mizpah Hotel


Bookmark and Share



Tonopah, NV is one of a number of old mining towns in Nevada. It is a part of Nevada's historic silver mining triangle. Recently I spent a night in the historic Mizpah hotel. This hotel was the first constructed west of the Mississippi with an elevator. It was built in 1907 and opened in 1908. The hotel was restored in 2011. It is in the National Register of Historic Places.


The hotel is one of those unexpected gems which one can come across. It is truly historic. I spent a night here and ate dinner in the hotel restaurant. It was a true pleasure.
