One of the best ways to experience a new city or state is to stay in a unique hotel. Therefore, if you're planning to be in Oberlin, Kansas, consider making a reservation at the Landmark Inn. As the only bed and breakfast in this small midwest town based in a historic landmark, you'll get to relax in a charming atmosphere that initially served as a bank.

Founded in the late 1880s, The Landmark Inn is an ideal destination if you're driving through the northwest part of Kansas. As soon as you enter this inn, you'll feel as if you've been transported to the Wild West.
