The Armstrong Hotel - a photo on Flickriver

Charles and Carolyn Mantz opened the original Armstrong Hotel in 1923 and named it after Carolyn’s deceased father (Andrew Armstrong), whose house once stood on the property. When it opened, the hotel was the tallest building in Fort Collins, boasting two elegant dining halls, 41 guest rooms, and various retail shops. The Mantz family advertised the Armstrong Hotel as the ideal location from which to tour the Poudre Canyon and Rocky Mountain National Park.

During the 1970’s, downtown Fort Collins fell into decline as new growth to the south drew business away. During that time the Armstrong Hotel slipped into disrepair as more and more visitors opted for newer hotels. Eventually, the hotel closed its doors in early 2000.

The newly renovated and revitalized Armstrong Hotel reopened its doors in June 2004.
