Deluxe Inn Motel
22295 Old Highway 66, Seligman, AZ 86337
Phone: 928-422-3244
The Deluxe Inn Motel opened as the Court Deluxe in 1932. The motel and
the former residence next-door were built by Franks Campbell. At some
point Mr. and Mrs. Vic Banks became the owners of the property and in
1955 they sold it to Mr. and Mrs. Leland Larson.
A sign on the building proudly declares that this is a Route 66 Historic
Landmark with WiFi and direct dial phones, those last two kind of illustrate
the progress of technology through the years. The building is included
in the National Register of Historic Places: Seligman Historic District
and is also on the Seligman Walking Tour.
This
building immediately east of the motel was built by Frank Campbell in
the mid-1950s, a few yeas before he built the motel next-door. It was
a residence for 41 years according to the Seligman Historic walking
Tour. It appears to have had an awning or porch roof that has been removed
from the front of the building.
