Historic Sheridan Inn Changes Hands

The Sheridan Inn was purchased yesterday by a local hotel management group. The new owner joins the existing staff already in place to operate the hotel.

The Sheridan Inn is registered as a National Historic Landmark and designated as a Historic Hotel of America. According to the new owner, it will continue to be marketed as an independent boutique hotel, highlighting its authentic western charm and rich history.

The focus of the new owner is to uphold the integrity of the historic property, re-energize downtown Sheridan as a highly desirable travel destination and to provide guests with gracious Wyoming hospitality.

“We look forward to working with local businesses and focusing on community-centered events and happenings in our vibrant downtown area,” said Karen Schumacher, the General Manager of Best Western Sheridan Center Inn in Sheridan.

The previous owners, Bob and Dana Townsend, and the interim General Manager, Matt White, are working in stride with the new owner to ensure a smooth transition.
