The Doyle Hotel

The only place on the AT where a thru-hiker can be offended.

The restaurant was excellent, but the hotel was stunningly run-down.

This place is well known among hikers.  We had a great time here!

Built by Adolphus Busch at the turn of the century as part of a chain of vacation hotels along major train routes.

  2. “Bag of Tricks” is a pretty cool nickname, if slightly unsettling. Love the pictures, thanks!
