Great question. Originally, Hotel Vandivort opened in one building (on E. Walnut Street), the historic downtown landmark that was once a Masonic temple. In 2019, we added a second building to our property (on E. McDaniel Street), referred to as “V2.” The buildings sit adjacent to one another, separated by S. Robberson Avenue.
The Order, our Hotel Vandivort restaurant, is located in the Historic Vandivort building, while Vantage Rooftop Lounge & Conservatory is located atop V2.
Policies
Cancel by 4 p.m. (CST) on the day prior to check-in to avoid a one room night (plus tax) cancellation charge.
