The Fitzpatrick Hotel was built in the Queen Anne style in 1898 on the square in Washington Ga by two brothers.

It was one of the few places with electricity, running water, and an elevator.

A group of MIT scientists stayed there to observe the solar eclipse of May 28, 1900.

The hotel was closed in 1952.

It reopened in 2004 after being closed for 50 years.

The Samuel Elbert Hotel has quite a history. It was built in the non-classical Tudor style.

It was named for General Samuel Elbert, a hero of the American Revolutionary War.

It was first opened ibn August 1925.

Through the years, it has been sold many times and converted to office space in the 1960's and then retail space.
After the city acquired the building in 2012, it was turned back into a hotel.
