The Yankee Pedlar Inn is a historic hotel located in Torrington, Connecticut. The inn, which now has 52 rooms, was built for its original owners Frank and Alice Conley in 1891. It was originally given a colonial New England architectural style. The Yankee Pedlar Inn remains one of the oldest non-franchised hotels in Connecticut that is still in operation today. ==History== In November 1890, Frank Conley brought a by lot on the corner of Main Street and Maiden Lane for $8,000. His wife, Alice was a native of New England while he had emigrated to the United States from Ireland. The couple used $40,000 to open the Conley Hotel. Alice was the manager while Frank worked as the hotel's operator. Throughout much of the first half of the 20th century, it was managed as a family business. After the couple died, the hotel was taken over by their niece. It was later expanded and renovated after it was sold by the Conley family. Since then the inn has had many managers, owners, and employees including: Arthur Rubens, Carlo Pilatti, Alfred B. Siegrist, and E.J. Kovak. The business did not receive its name "The Yankee Pedlar Inn" until March 1, 1956 when the hotel was combined with the restaurant. Along with the restaurant, the hotel also has a pub called Bogey's. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Yankee Pedlar Inn」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
