Peoples Hotel

Peoples Hotel was a frontier Mandan hotel located on the northeast corner of Main Street and Stark Avenue (today’s Collins Avenue).

George Peoples commenced construction of his namesake hotel in 1882. The brick three-story structure cost a little more than twenty-three thousand dollars to build. Sources vary on if it opened that same year, or in 1883.

Pat McGinley later acquired the hotel and renamed it The McGinley. It sold again in 1908 and it was during this ownership that it became known as Hotel Mandan. The Romers purchased it in 1916 and held ownership until at least the late-1920s. It ceased operating as a hotel in 1968. The building was demolished in April 2007.
