ALMA — A hotel originally constructed in the 19th century has new life.

Friday marked a grand opening of the two-story Brandt House, 402 Missouri Ave. in downtown Alma. Built in 1887 by Christena and Joseph Brandt, the hotel was named to the National Register of Historic Places in 2008.

After going through several ownership groups — and previously named the Alma Hotel — Brandt House’s current owners consist of Alma couples Morgan and Tyler Holloman, as well as Alex and Amanda Gnadt. The four acquired the hotel originally in November 2023 and received $73,400 through the Kansas Department of Commerce’s Attraction Development Grant program.
