Letter to the Media

2006

To Members of the Media,

Thank you for your interest in the historic Plains Hotel. This boutique hotel in downtown Cheyenne, Wyo., has been an icon of elegant Western dining and lodging for more than 90 years. Built in 1911, the hotel completed a multi-million dollar renovation in 2003, adding modern conveniences and special touches such as custom-designed furniture and bed coverings with a cowboy high-style decor.

The hotel features 131 beautifully appointed guest rooms and thirty luxurious parlor and two-room suites, with an on-site day spa, fitness center and full-service business center. For event and meeting planners, the Plains has six meeting rooms, professional catering and banquet staff, and a dedicated meeting services liaison.

There are special events, packages and promotions throughout the year, ranging from wedding and spa packages to six-course wine dinners and murder mysteries. Two on-site restaurants provide convenient dining options, serving award-winning cuisine featuring the finest, fresh, local ingredients prepared by the executive chef and his staff. The Reata Collection, located in the hotel lobby, offers a sophisticated collection cowboy chic jewelry, handbags and women’s accessories, plus upscale serving pieces inlaid with silver and genuine elk antler, Cripple Creek Western wear, and Plains Hotel signature Wyoming gifts.

The Plains Hotel is conveniently located in downtown Cheyenne on the historic Lincoln Highway, a great stopping point for travelers heading to Yellowstone National Park or the Grand Tetons. Perhaps best known for Cheyenne Frontier Days, the granddaddy of all rodeos, Cheyenne’s celebrated past and dynamic future are blended in a city alive with history, culture, entertainment and outdoor recreation.

The enclosed packet includes more detailed information about everything the Plains Hotel has to offer. If you have questions or are going to be in the Cheyenne area, please contact The Plains Hotel at (307)638-3311.
