Overview
The Van Gilder Hotel in Seward is a historic hotel built in 1916 by E. L. Van Gilder of Idaho, which became a hotel in 1920. It is on the National Register of Historic Places (1980), with original details, and was where the pilots of the 1924 Army round-the-world flight stayed. It is a small hotel still in operation, said to be haunted by a ghost known as Rose.
