What a great job the community did with refurbishing this hotel. It's a wonderful experience staying in a FLW building with all the nooks and crannies. The restaurant was not open, as we were there on a Monday. That was disappointing. Breakfast was nothing special, but it was still enjoyable because of the surroundings. Staff were so welcoming and helpful.... More

Stayed in Mason City for business. The hotel, service and restaurant were outstanding. The hotel is true to the Frank Lloyd Wright school of architecture and the staff very attentive. The restaturant had a varied and delicious menu. the wine list was impressive. This hotel is in and of itself a reason to visit Mason City. You won't be dissapointed.... More

If you like Frank Lloyd Wright architecture you will fall in love with this hotel. The last existing Frank Lloyd Wright hotel in the world, it is beautifully renovated. We were upgraded to a king suite and it was stunning. Wonderful staff and an incredible restaurant, 1910, located on site. Absolutely loved this hotel and would travel the 300 miles... More

In 1910, a building to house a bank, offices for attorneys, and housing for those attorneys was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. Now renovated to a stunning truthfulness better suited to the 21st Century, the former bank is a lovely banquet area, the offices and housing spaces now serve as hotel rooms. The space is comfortable and the detail is... More

This is an extraordinary facility in many ways and its rescue and ultimate restoration is a wonderful gift from the many contributors in Mason City (and elsewhere) who supported this project to present visitors and future generations. The alternative - demolition and destruction - is unimaginable, although such things have happened elsewhere. The original number of rooms (+40) has been... More

Delightful, interesting, cozy hotel. Lots of little nooks to explore. Beautifully decorated. We chose to splurge a little and took a suite facing town square. We could hear people on the street early in the evening ( not bad or rowdy by any means) but by bedtime it was quiet. You can hear the train whistle at night, and it... More

Not only is this hotel special to Iowa, it's special to the world. On top of that, it's right in the heart of Mason City, has a great bar and restaurant, and is perfect for a tired traveler. Though the breakfast isn't much (bagels, toast, yogurt), the coffee is great. I look forward to many more stays!

We stayed at the HPI two nights while attending my sister's wedding. The hotel is very charming and has some trendy touches. The staff was extremely friendly and accommodating. The rooms are very nice but small. Unless you get a suite be prepared to feel cozy. The room we, and other family members had, only had showers, no tubs. The... More

Stayed in the suite with hottub and park view. Beautiful view of park and city. Room was spectacular. Staff was very professional and kind. We also got the romance package, with champaign and chocolates at arrival, very good! Ate at the adjoining 1910 Grille and then had a nightcap at the 1910 Lounge downstairs. The food was AMAZING! Don't even... More
