Menger Hotel | http://simoninstitute.org/201-simon-institute-symposium
Just twenty-three years after the fall of Te Alamo in 1836, German businessman,
William A. Menger, opened his luxury hotel right next door on the abandoned site
of Texas’ frst brewery. With the extraordinary Menger Bar as its centerpiece, the
elaborately designed hotel soon became a favorite among Texas titans of industry,
commerce and politics. Exorbitant cattle sales and oil deals were sealed over handshakes
and shots of rye at the bar. Tis is also where Teddy Roosevelt recruited his famous
Rough Riders cavalry brigade.
Today, after over 150 years of refnements and enhancements, the Menger stands
as the oldest continuously operating hotel west of the Mississippi. Te hotel is renowned
for its exquisite architecture, including a stunning 3-story lobby and a meticulously
restored wing adorned with 19th-century Victorian panache, rare antique furniture, and
paintings. Stately columns rise from the burnished lobby foor, and antique furnishings,
light fxtures, and artwork lend an air of historic luxury. Many cherished traditions
continue to this day, most notably the Colonial Room’s famous mango ice cream – once
made fresh from the mangos growing in the courtyard garden.
