    The Eldridge Hotel has been an integral part of the history of Lawrence since its founding. The original building on this site was the Free State Hotel, built in 1855 by settlers from the New England Emigrant Aid Society. The Free State Hotel was intended to be temporary quarters for those settlers who came here from Boston and other areas while their homes were being built. It was named the Free State Hotel to make clear the intent of those early settlers: that Kansas should enter the union as a free state.

    The Eldridge is a prestigious historic hotel, the 48 room, all-suite property reopened in May of 2005 after undergoing a complete restoration. The hotel features a full-service restaurant and lounge, exquisite banquet space, and room service. The Eldridge is truly the place where history and hospitality converge.
