The Wort Hotel

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. It served as a gathering place for locals and was a sought-after destination for visitors. The hotel’s famous Silver Dollar Bar, with its 2,032 inlaid 1921 Morgan Silver Dollars, was added in 1950. The Hotel’s luxurious Western-themed guestrooms are uniquely decorated and tastefully accented with custom-made furniture and original Western art.
