Hotel Belleville is a historic hotel building at 16 S. Illinois Street in Belleville, Illinois. The hotel was built in 1930–31 to replace the city's previous hotel, the Belleville House; like its predecessor, the hotel marketed itself as the most luxurious and modern hotel in Belleville. Architects Manske & Bartling designed the building in the Art Deco style; their design included first-floor window bays with terra cotta blocks, brick pilasters above the entrance, ornamental brickwork on the upper floors, and a parapet. The hotel's amenities included a restaurant and cocktail lounge, banquet and event space, office space for community organizations, and storefronts for local businesses. In the decades after it opened, the building served both as a center of Belleville's social life and a home for regional conventions. The hotel operated until 1961, when it was converted to an assisted living facility for the elderly.[2]
