Description

Postcard showing a picture of the Hotel Machir in Strasburg Virginia. The card notes the site had reasonable rates, running water, tasty food, and private baths.

The hotel opened under the name "Chalyeveate Springs Hotel" in 1881 and was renamed Hotel Machir sometime after a 1912 change in ownership. The business closed sometime around 1950.

The building still stands at the intersection of Fort and Washington Streets in Strasburg Virginia.
