The St. Nicholas Hotel was a historic hotel located at the northwest corner of 8th Street and Locust Streets in St. Louis, Missouri. After the hotel was closed in 1905, it was turned into an office building and renamed the Victoria Building. The original St. Nicholas Hotel in St. Louis was located on 4th Street, but this building was destroyed by a fire in 1884. The fire was not a hotel fire as the building was only occupied by stores at the time. This January 4, 1884, fire is remembered as one of the most difficult for the St. Louis Fire Department as the temperature had fallen to 26 degrees below zero with ice reaching two-feet thick to the outside walls after water had been sprayed on the exterior.

  • El Hotel San Nicolás fue un hotel histórico ubicado en la esquina noroeste de las calles 8 y Locust en San Luis (Estados Unidos). Después de que el hotel fuera cerrado en 1905, se convirtió en un edificio de oficinas y se le cambió el nombre a Victoria Building. Estaba ubicado en la calle 4, pero fue destruido por un incendio el 4 de enero de 1884.​ En ese momento solo estaba ocupado por tiendas. Este fue uno de los más difíciles de apagar para el Departamento de Bomberos de San Luis, ya que la temperatura había bajado a 26 grados bajo cero y el hielo alcanzaba 60 cm espesor en las paredes exteriores después de que se rociara agua en el exterior.​ (es)

Este fue uno de los más difíciles de apagar para el Departamento de Bomberos de San Luis, ya que la temperatura había bajado a 26 grados bajo cero y el hielo alcanzaba 60 cm espesor en las paredes exteriores después de que se rociara agua en el exterior.​ El segundo hotel de nombre San Nicolás en la ciudad de San Luis fue diseñado por Louis Sullivan y fue construido en 1893. El hotel de ocho pisos se inauguró un año después, en 1894. Su exterior tenía adornos distintivos de copos de nieve de terracota. El edificio estaba en la Encuesta de Edificios Históricos,​ pero fue demolido en 1973.​ Un supuesto incendio había llevado a la conversión del hotel en un edificio de oficinas cuando se quitaron el techo a dos aguas y la entrada arqueada y se agregaron cuatro pisos​ con un restaurante agregado y un baño turco instalado en el sótano. El Hotel fue una de las cuatro estructuras en San Luis de Louis Sullivan.​ (es)

The second St. Nicholas Hotel in St. Louis was designed by the famous architect Louis Sullivan and was built in 1893. The eight-story hotel was opened a year later in 1894. Its exterior had distinctive terra-cotta snowflake embellishments. The building was in the Historic American Buildings Survey, but it was demolished in 1973. A supposed fire had led to the hotel's conversion to an office building when the gabled roof and arched entrance were removed and four floors were added with a restaurant added and Turkish bath installed in the basement. The St. Nicholas Hotel was one of four structures in St. Louis by famed architect Louis Sullivan. (en)
