Ernest Hemingway stayed at the Chamberlin Inn repeatedly in the early 1930s and finished the manuscript of Death in the Afternoon here. He wrote in Room 9, which is still bookable and has been preserved with period furnishings appropriate to the era. The inn itself has maintained its 1930s character throughout — the courtyard, the low-key common areas, and the general atmosphere of a small western town hotel that serves actual travellers rather than just performing history.
Even if you are not staying, it is worth walking through the courtyard. The inn is on Sheridan Avenue a few doors from the Irma Hotel, and the contrast between the two buildings says something about the different speeds at which Cody operated in the early 20th century. If you are a Hemingway reader, staying in Room 9 is one of the more specific literary experiences the Mountain West offers.
