Die Verleger Suite im The 1883 Guesthouse

Settle in somewhere with a story to tell.

The Publisher's Suite celebrates the history of the four newspapers that once called our 1883 building home.

Today, the suite offers a comfortable modern retreat in the heart of downtown Osage City. It offers all the latest comforts you might want, like a full kitchen and a washer/dryer, while keeping historic touches like the glass transoms and soaring ceilings orginal to the building. And it includes little touches that nod to its newspaper past, like reprints of pages published in the building more than a century ago on blankets, lamp shades and other items around the suite.

The bedroom features a queen bed, and the sectional in the living room turns into a second queen-size bed. The large kitchen can handle nearly any kind of cooking, and the living room offers a cozy space to curl up and watch TV, socialize or simply take in the afternoon sunlight from the oversize windows.

Forty Barrels Coffee + Kitchen is downstairs, offering a wide variety of housemade dishes and drinks for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Horn & Ivory Books, also downstairs, And the Flint Hills Trail runs directly behind the building, making it easy to combine a downtown stay with a day on the trail.

The suite is on the second floor and must be accessed by stairs. If you need an ADA-accessible unit, please book the Merchant's Suite.
