Overview
by Amanda Geronikos
Opened in 1902, Buffalo Bill’s Irma Hotel is the centerpiece of Cody, Wyoming. This historic hotel—named after Buffalo Bill’s youngest daughter and built to be the region’s most luxurious hotel—will take your family back to the Old West! Listed on The National Register of Historic Places, Irma offers simply furnished guestrooms with one king, one queen, two double, or two queen beds; some rooms also have one double and two single beds. Kids will get a kick out of the old-fashioned toilets in some of the rooms—you have to pull a chain to flush!
Be sure to make reservations for the prime rib buffet at the onsite Irma Restaurant and Grille (where breakfast and lunch are also served), and browse the hotel’s darling gift shop.
Bonus: The Wild Bunch performs a nightly, free-admission skit right outside of the Irma Hotel, and the Cody Trolley Tours kiosk/departure point is located onsite, too.

Our room was cute, but the radiator made it so hot and loud that as had to check out at midnight and go somewhere else. It’s an old building, so I understand they weren’t able to change anything. Next time we will just try the restaurant.

We stayed here in Sept. 2019. We couldn't wait to stay and eat here and it didn't disappoint. We stayed in room 37. It was very comfortable and very quiet. The beds were great and the room very clean along with the whole hotel. We ate in the dining area for both breakfast and supper and both were excellent. The breakfast was buffet style. We attended the shoot out and it was a great time. We didn't encounter any ghosts even though we were hopeful we would. The hotel keeps most of the old west charm with just the right amount of modern amenities. All staff were helpful and polite. This is a must stay if you are ever in Cody.
