The Montezuma Castle is a 90,000-square-foot (8,400 m2), 400 room Queen Anne style hotel building erected just northwest of the city of Las Vegas, New Mexico in 1886. The current castle is actually the third on the site, the first two were the first buildings in New Mexico to have electric lighting, and they both burned down.
