The Weatherford Hotel

The Weatherford Hotel is a historic entertainment complex anchoring the heart of downtown Flagstaff, Arizona. Opened on January 1, 1900, the three-story brick-and-sandstone building was constructed by John W. Weatherford and has welcomed guests for more than a century. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the hotel has hosted notable figures including author Zane Grey, painter Thomas Moran, and newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst. Today the Weatherford operates as both a boutique hotel and a multi-venue event destination, with 17 turn-of-the-century guest rooms and four distinct event spaces — Charly's Pub & Grill, The Exchange Pub, the Zane Grey Bar, Ballroom & Balcony, and The Gopher Hole. Together they accommodate gatherings from intimate 15-person rehearsal dinners in the historic telephone exchange to standing receptions of up to 213 guests in the speakeasy-style basement pub. The hotel hosts weddings, rehearsal dinners, corporate dinners, holiday parties, birthday celebrations, and private events year-round. Each space retains the character of the building's era — stained glass windows, antique woodwork, original fireplaces, and reconstructed double-tiered balconies overlooking Flagstaff's historic railroad district.
