Irma Hotel
Buffalo Bill's Irma Hotel
A hotel built by Buffalo Bill in 1902 and named after his daughter. Its cherry-wood bar is said to be a gift from Queen Victoria, and in summer staged gunfights take place outside.
The Irma Hotel is a landmark of Cody. Buffalo Bill called it 'the finest hotel in the world.' It still operates today, and some rooms are named after past celebrities and retain their old furniture. The ornate cherry-wood bar in the restaurant and bar is famously said to be a gift from Queen Victoria. You can enjoy steak or bison burgers here. In summer (roughly June to September), at about 6 pm Monday through Saturday, the Cody Gunfighters perform free Western gunfight skits on the street in front of the hotel, drawing large crowds.
