Inn History
Ephraim Wells, grandson of Sistersville founder Charles Wells, established the Hotel Wells in 1894
shortly after the discovery of oil in this area. Wells built this hotel to serve the oil barons, genteel travelers and residents
of the area.
The "Sistersville Daily Review" the leading newspaper of the area noted, "The banquet
and ball which celebrated the hotel opening was one of the notable events of the century." Throughout the years, statesmen,
business people, and professionals from all around the world have enjoyed the comforts and gracious elegance of the Hotel
Wells, later known as the Wells Inn. It became, we believe, a special place.
The grand old gal still looks good.
A restoration investment of over one million dollars has allowed the hotel to enhance it's visitor services to include an
indoor pool and jacuzzi, an exercise and fitness area. Visitors to the Wells Inn can make use of the Grand Ball Room for Weddings,
Receptions, Parties and Anniversaries. Golf privileges are also available at the nearby Sistersville Country Club.
Come on out to the Wells Inn and enjoy the graciousness of a by-gone era without forsaking 21st century amenities. You'll
be glad you did!
