The Inez Hotel, also known as The Inez Apartments,[2] is a historic three-story building in Brookhaven, Mississippi. It was designed in the Romanesque Revival style by Diboll & Owen, and built by T. Hallas & Co. in 1904.[3] The original owner was R. T. Scherck, who started his career by working for his father, an immigrant from Germany, at A. Scherck & Son.[4] Scherck lived at the R.T. Scherck House. He named the hotel for his daughter, Inez Lenore Pass Scherck.[3] The building was acquired by David Gilly in the early 1910s, followed by D.A. Biglane in 1945.[5] Biglane sold it to Clarke College and Mississippi College.[5] In the late 1980s, it was remodelled into a retirement facility by its new owners, Dub Sproles and Paul Jackson.[5] It was acquired by new owners in 2003.[2]

The building has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since October 21, 1988.[1] It was included in Brookhaven's annual Tour of Homes alongside other historic buildings in 2004.[2]
