History
In 1870, Thomas J. Booth came to Montgomery County.[3] His education primarily consisted of common schooling in Kansas and Iowa, followed by a career as a cattle buyer and shipper. But it was oil and gas business in which he made conservative and profitable investments. The 108-room project of Booth Hotel was completed on January 1, 1912, after construction began early in 1911.
In the 1960s, the Hotel Booth closed and sat empty for almost two decades. The building was purchased by a company to keep it from being demolished and spent nearly six million dollars on renovations. David and Linda Grice purchased the Booth in December 2007. It has since been restored to its former grandeur after being lightly renovated.
