El Trovatore
MOTEL
Out with the old, in with the new!
Now open featuring newly re-decorated theme rooms! Kingman, AZ was home to Andy Devine whose namesake El Trovatore is located on - Andy Devine Avenue (Route 66). Notable icons such as Clark Gable, Marilyn Monroe and James Dean were all guests in the past. Staying here gives the guest the ultimate route 66 experience, including the recently restored historic 100 foot high neon tower sign and neon marqee lit nightly.
