Hotel Smith (site)
Hotel Smith was a historic hotel located in Victorville, California. It was built in the early 1900s and played a significant role in the town's history, serving travelers along the Old National Trails Highway, which later became Route 66. The hotel was an important stop for people traveling through the Mojave Desert during the early days of automobile travel. Hotel Smith also served as a social and cultural hub for the growing town of Victorville.
Though the hotel no longer exists, its memory lives on as part of Victorville's history, contributing to the town's development during the heyday of Route 66. The building was demolished, and now the site is part of Victorville's modern infrastructure, reflecting the town's transformation over the decades.
