Established in 1929, the Hotel Nevada quickly became Ely’s premier destination for dining and lodging, anchoring the bustling downtown economy. Live gambling was added in 1931, enhancing its vibrant appeal.

Over the years, Ely has transformed from Nevada’s largest mining town to a popular stop along America’s Loneliest Highway. Through it all, the Hotel Nevada has remained a cornerstone of comfort and hospitality, welcoming visitors exploring the majestic alpine beauty of White Pine County.

Ely shines year-round with signature events, including the Fire & Ice Festival in January, the Nevada Open Road Challenge in May, the White Pine County Fair in August, and the Astronomy Festival at Great Basin National Park. Don’t miss the Polar Express train rides during the holiday season! For more information on local events and attractions, visit The White Pine County Tourism & Recreation Board.
