Offering all the accessories and lots of charm, the Magma Hotel in Superior is back in business! On the corner of Main Street and Magma Ave, the local landmark has been returned to her previous turn-of-the-century grandeur.
With twenty-one guest rooms, a restaurant, tea room and bar, the little town of Superior can now proudly provide superior accommodation, as the town’s name would imply.
The Magma Hotel was first constructed in 1912, built from cement and steel. An adobe structure was added to that building in 1916, but it collapsed in 2006, before the restoration. Adjacent to the now demolished adobe, a third red brick building was added in 1923. The hotel was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994, and owner and developer Miguel Sfeir has gone to great lengths to preserve the historic integrity of the two remaining buildings during the nearly six-year restoration.
