Severs Hotel, Hotel building in downtown Muskogee, United States.
Severs Hotel is a four-story brick building from the early 1900s with decorative metal cornices along the top edge of its facade. The interior contains guest rooms while period systems like chilled water distribution reflect the mechanical innovations of its era.
Frederick B. Severs started construction in 1911 but died before completion, with the building opening to guests in 1912. His vision for the project was realized posthumously by those who finished the work.
The hotel served as a gathering place for prominent travelers and dignitaries who passed through Muskogee during the early twentieth century. This role helped establish it as a social hub in the growing city.
The building's multiple floors take time to explore and can be accessed by stairs or elevator. Its downtown location puts nearby shops and services within walking distance.
The interior features a carefully crafted staircase with marble steps and cast bronze railings, surrounded by oak wood paneling. This blend of materials was typical for upscale hotels of that period and remains a fine example of period craftsmanship.
