Built in 1885 by Richard Feeney and first known as the Feeney Hotel, this hotel catered to miners and stage coach travelers. Its saloon houses the 1850’s Empire Bar, once housed in the Empire Hotel. The bar was brought around Cape Horn from England, then by horse and wagon to French Gulch. The main dining room and parlor with bedrooms were added later. The Feeney family owned and operated the hotel until it was sold in the late 1940’s, when the new owners changed the name to the French Gulch Hotel.
