HOT014Description
The Hotel Lyndon, pictured here in the mid-1950s, occupied 175 feet of frontage on Santa Cruz Avenue and for 64 years held an important place in the cultural identity of the town. Many people arrived by train in Los Gatos and remembered spending their first night here. The facility consisted of 60 bedrooms, double dining rooms, and several parlors and sitting rooms. Of special note was the gentlemen's sitting room, known as the "Indian Room," with Navajo hangings and "other Indian bric-a-bac." The ladies' parlor was furnished with "restful easy chairs, paintings, engravings and a piano". There were spacious gardens and cottages to the rear of the main building. The grand opening of the Hotel Lyndon on June 1, 1899 was attended by nearly all of Los Gatos. HOT014Subject
