About
Located directly on the Historic Downtown Square in Granbury, Texas! This one of a kind structure was built of hand-hewn Texas limestone in 1893 by brothers Jacob, Jesse and David Lee Nutt, the Historic Nutt House Hotel occupies the site of their original log mercantile store. It was on this very spot that these forward thinking and industrious brothers Jacob and Jesse both of whom were blind from late childhood, began operating their general store in 1874, originally beginning trade from a tent. David Lee, was the much younger brother of Jacob and Jesse and served as their "eyes" in the mercantile store from the time he was twelve.
In 1879 David and his wife Sudie, built a home only a couple of blocks down the street from the store, where they provided lodging for the hotel suppliers, as they had no other place to stay while visiting Granbury on their business trips. After enjoying many years of hospitality within the Nutts' own residence, the family decided to convert the open second floor of the then enlarged mercantile building into a hotel. The Nutt House Hotel officially opened in 1910, with ten guest rooms, and two luxurious separate baths for both women and men. This incredible building has served as the "Premier Lodging," on the Granbury square ever since! This inviting and rustic hotel now features seven uniquely different luxury suites, each with expansive spa-like baths. It also has a Grand Sitting Room for it's guests to enjoy, and countless original features still remain intact, such as the original Grand Staircase, and the authenticated room key holder from 1910! The gorgeous original doors to the ten rooms are a feast for the eyes as well. This preserved and beloved gem, is the Grand Old Lady of the Granbury square, and joyously continues to warmly welcome folks both far and wide to Granbury, with all of it's charm and warmth. The Nutt House Hotel encapsulates all the authenticity and ambiance of the past, as well as the customary comforts of the present! Breakfast is provided daily, with the purchase of your room reservation.
