The iconic Monticello Hotel was built in 1923. The hotel is currently being restored, to bring back the original 1920's charm it once had.  The beautiful Monticello Hotel is a local Historic Landmark and it's known as the heart of our city. The hotel was recently purchased and is in the process of undergoing a complete revitalization at the moment.  We are hoping to have the bottom floor completed by the first of the year in 2017! The Hotel will offer luxurious suites, apartments, fine dining, bar, ballroom, provide space for weddings, receptions, conferences, coffee shop, among many other amenities!

The Monticello Hotel is a hotel and apartment building in Longview, Washington. It was given to the city by founder R. A. Long in the early 1920s.





The Monticello Hotel
Early photographs seen in Longview indicate its original name was "Hotel Monticello," and the large sign on the roof was rearranged when the name was changed. Several other hotels named Hotel Monticello exist in the Washington, D.C. area. The Hotel in Longview is probably named after the historic "Monticello Memorial" document, signed in the tiny settlement of Monticello, Oregon Territory at the time, near the site of the Hotel, petitioning the US Congress to grant the residents north of the Columbia River a separate territory, which ultimately led to the establishment of Washington Territory and Washington state. Monticello itself is a reference to Thomas Jefferson's estate in Virginia.

The building contains an intact original lobby area with dark hardwood paneling, above which are a series of oil paintings by Joe Knowles depicting the early years of the settlement of western North America, including depictions of the Marcus Whitman expedition rafting the lower Columbia River and portraits of many early American notables such as John Mcloughlin of the Hudson's Bay Company.

We are very excited about all of the renovations and we'd love to have you visit the New Monticello Hotel!
