Two years in the making, Kindler Hotel effortlessly blends Lincoln’s local character with a modern West Coast aesthetic to create a refined Midwestern experience. The Kindler Hotels interior design was brought to life by Ross Vincent from Ross Vincent Design based in Los Angeles. Vincent brought together elements from the Art Deco era of the 1920s-1930s and married them with cutting-edge contemporary design, creating a new design concept he calls Modern Deco. Easily mistaken for a posh upscale New York or Los Angeles luxury hotel, guests are greeted by a show-stopping lobby with high ceilings and a beautiful chandelier with custom-designed furniture accents reminiscent of The Great Gatsby. The creative spirit of the late Lincoln native and hotel namesake, Ken Kindler, lives on through artful details.
For the modern traveler in mind, the 49 guestrooms take inspiration from Lincoln, Nebraska’s rich cultural history. Boasting comforts such as pillowtop beds and Egyptian cotton sheets, the guestrooms offer thoughtful touches like bathrobes and slippers.

The rooms are outfitted with designer furnishings, modern artwork and design details offering guests the inviting warmth and comfort of an elegant private residence.
The hotel’s story is more than sophisticated accommodations.

Guests can savor satisfying dishes with locally sourced ingredients in a posh Modern Deco atmosphere with live music on select evenings.
