The Mayo Hotel is a landmark of Tulsa located at 115 W 5th Street. This Chicago School (Sullivanesque) Building was built in 1925 as a copy of the Plaza Hotel in New York City. It was designed by architect George Winkler and financed by John D. and Cass A. Mayo. Its base is formed by beautiful two-story Doric columns with the rest of the facade being mostly terra cotta with stone trim. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. It has hosted many of Tulsa's most notable visitors, including President John F. Kennedy and Babe Ruth. The Mayo hotel also served as residence to notable oilmen of the era, including J. Paul Getty. A failed renovation attempt in the early 1980s left the building abandoned and missing many of its original fixtures and interior ornamentation. Since acquiring the hotel in 2001, the Snyder family has overseen a successful series of projects to restore the building to its former glory, floor by floor, room by room. Today, the lower floors can be reserved for galas, receptions, and meetings, once again adding to the architectural heritage in downtown Tulsa.
