Lovers’ Wishes Come True at the Congress Hotel Bar
The Hotel Congress, built in 1919, is an historic landmark located in the heart of downtown Tucson, Arizona. The hotel has a colourful history that includes being the location on January 22, 1934 where the infamous American gangster John Dillinger was finally captured after a series of bank robberies committed by the “Dillinger Gang”.
The second floor lounge at the Congress Hotel is also known as a place where love-related wishes come true! Check out some examples from guests of the hotel:
Wish #1
My room was cool, but the 2nd floor lounge, site of the famous lover’s wishing shrine was hot! I made a wish as a joke the first night and was shocked when it came true immediately. The 2nd and 3rd wishes I made also came true. For the money, it is the greatest attraction in Tucson! No room price is too high to get this kind of ammenity…[TripAdvisor]
Wish #2
I heard about the famous lovers’ wishing shrine in the 2nd floor lounge at historic Hotel Congress. Rumour has it that wishes made there relating to love come true and I had to find out for myself. It’s TRUE!!! Aside from that, the hotel itself is a cool, hipster, artsy place. It has a groovy nightclub downstairs, pseudo French Cup Cafe and Tap Room. I had a great time there and fell in love too…[Yahoo!]
