MISSOURI: The Elms Hotel and Spa, Excelsior Springs

The Elms Hotel is made of limestone from Missouri.

People initially flocked to the area where the The Elms stands today in the 19th century for the reported healing powers of mineral waters in the area.

Land developers took the opportunity to build a community on the newly-popular site and settled the town of Excelsior Springs. The Elms Hotel was not far behind, first opening in 1888. The hotel burned down and was rebuilt twice before the limestone structure still operating today opened in 1912.

The Elms went through a $20 million renovation in 2011, restoring it to its historic glory as well as updating its luxurious spa.
