Haunted Hotels in Silver City, Idaho

Idaho Hotel

220 Montgomery St, Silver City, ID 83650, United States

The Idaho Hotel, located in the preserved mining ghost town of Silver City, is steeped in history dating back to the 1860s and is considered highly haunted. With much of the town preserved as it was, many believe spirits from its bustling past never left. Visitors often report encountering full-bodied apparitions dressed in period clothing, particularly of rugged miners or women in Victorian attire. Room 27 is often cited as a hotspot for activity. Common paranormal claims include hearing phantom piano music, voices and laughter from empty rooms, footsteps on wooden floors when no one is present, and objects moving. Given Silver City's violent and dramatic gold rush past, including shootouts and harsh conditions, many believe these strong energies are imprinted on the hotel. Some guests feel 'watched' or experience sudden temperature drops, contributing to its reputation as one of Idaho's most haunted locations.
