Great Falls Area Chamber of Commerce www.greatfallschamber.org
The Arvon Block in downtown Great Falls is many things: a
concept, a building, a place, a business, a destination, and a
refuge. The Arvon Block started this journey of development
in 1890 when it was one of the earliest commercial buildings
constructed in this upstart city on the windswept frontier as
a "modern" convenience for the transportation, housing and
supply needs of people moving to the new town in pursuit of
opportunity. Part of the trend of downtown decay after WWII,
the Arvon fell into disrepair in the early 2000s and was nearly
demolished. Fully remodeled from 2011 to 2015 into the Celtic
Cowboy Public House, the Darkhorse Hall Event Space and
HOTEL ARVON
the Hotel Arvon, our mission today is not far from the original
purposes of a hotel and livery stable. While we don't stable
horses in the basement as they did in the early days, we still
have a stable across the alley in our parking garage for
your ride.
For people passing through our doors, we provide an oasis of
rest, relaxation and revelry for travelers and locals alike. It is the
goal of this place to serve our guests in a manner that allows
them to enjoy an exceptional experience of time spent with
friends, family, and coworkers outside of the regular grind of
life. Our goal is to provide a form of therapy for our customers
– a seamless experience of great food, drinks, and atmosphere
that leaves everyone restored.
