City Hotel in Marthaville, Louisiana, also known as Hotel Darden, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1993.[1] It was built c.1881 upon arrival of the Texas and Pacific Railroad, which stopped at a depot across the street from the hotel. It was built by John Jackson Rains, an early settler who is considered to be the founder of Marthaville.[2]
The hotel is stylistically simple, but has a full gallery (porch) on both of its two stories. It has a hipped roof.[2]
