The hotel's design includes elements of the Prairie School and bungalow styles.[2] The brick building has flat-roofed porches supported by wooden piers on both street-facing sides. A flat cornice rests below the hotel's roof line. While the Paris Public School also has a horizontal emphasis in its design, the hotel's blend of its two styles is unique in Paris.[3]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]

The hotel is still in operation. It is located next to the historic LDS Tabernacle and a museum in downtown Paris.[4]
