The HOTEL WHITING is a rare example of an extremely original HISTORIC PROPERTY located in Pawhuska, Oklahoma. It has slipped through time. It is truly unique in Pawhuska, having not been “over-restored” like so many other properties that are gutted and built back all new. The Hotel Whiting has the unreproducible soul of a true CAREFUL RESTORATION.
Originally BUILT IN 1920 as a commercial apartment building, it retains the layout of the original 11 COMMERCIAL UNITS on the ground floor. With the exception of the north-most unit that serves as the HOTEL WHITING LOBBY, they are all occupied by stores that sell quality apparel, antiques, furs, art, jewelry, etc. And on the second floor the original 20 apartments have transitioned into 20 HISTORIC HOTEL ROOMS over the last few decades, without disturbing the original layout, trim, doors, etc. They are perfectly suited for this role due to interior hotel hallway access, spacious closets, kitchenettes, full bathrooms, living areas, etc…..and some units even have a separate additional bedroom
