The Blennerhassett Hotel

Historic Hotels of America is the official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation® for recognizing and celebrating the finest historic hotels across America. In 1889, local businessman and entrepreneur William Chancellor began a legacy of culture and sophistication with The Blennerhassett, which has played host to over a century of businessmen and tycoons. Touches such as lavish crown moldings and extravagant light fixtures captivated guests with their splendor. The original entrance to the hotel housed the First National Bank of Parkersburg, a trendsetter in the use of a luxurious new invention: air-conditioning.
