Historic Park Inn Hotel
7 W State St, Mason City, IA 50401
✦ The only remaining Frank Lloyd Wright–designed hotel in the world
✦ Cozy, design-forward interiors: sitting rooms, library, basement bar
✦ Restored 1919 Grand Ballroom with original floors and custom chandeliers
The Historic Park Inn Hotel in Mason City is a dream for architecture people. It’s the last Frank Lloyd Wright–designed hotel still standing, and the ambiance runs from swanky sitting rooms and the upstairs library to the basement bar and those funky corridor carpets. Prairie School lines, warm woods, and patterned glass—every detail photographs beautifully.
The 1919 Grand Ballroom has original hardwood floors, restored ceiling details, textured wall coverings with hand-painted gold accents, natural light, and three custom chandeliers. It’s scalable for intimate dinners or larger receptions, with hotel suites right upstairs.
If you’re drawn to timeless architecture and Midwestern design history, this is a space worth celebrating in. Inquire here →
