Additional Details:
This magnificent hotel was first opened to public patronage in 1895; it was erected by the late Major Lewis Ginter at a cost of nearly two million dollars. In 1901 a disastrous fire destroyed about one-half of the structure, but it has since been rebuilt and remodeled, and, in its present condition, is not surpassed, in point of architectural beauty and completeness of equipment by any other hotel in the country
