Overview
The Montezuma Castle is a 90,000-square-foot (8,400 m2), 400 room Queen Anne style hotel building erected just northwest of the city of Las Vegas, New Mexico in 1886 (the site was at the time called "Las Vegas Hot Springs," but is now known as "Montezuma"). The existing castle is the third on the site. The first two (dating to 1881 and 1885) were the first buildings in New Mexico to have electric lighting, and they both burned down.
