Hotel Finlen is a historic hotel in Butte, Montana, United States, built in 1924.
The Hotel Finlen was established by James Finlen, the son of Miles Finlen, an Irish immigrant who had opened the McDermitt Hotel in Butte in 1889.[2] The Hotel Finlen opened on January 1, 1924, and was architecturally inspired by the Astor Hotel in New York City.[3] It was completed on a budget of $750,000[2] . The tallest tower on the building was finished in 1924, and construction on a second tower began in 1927, but went unfinished due to the stock market crash of 1929.[3]
In 2018, the hotel was acquired by a group of four investors led by J. J. Adams, a professor at Montana Tech, by the Taras family, who had owned the hotel for approximately 40 years.[3]
The hotel was visited by various notable guests throughout the 20th century, including aviator Charles Lindbergh and Presidents Harry S. Truman and John F. Kennedy.[4]
