Burlington Hotel in Alma, Wisconsin was built in 1891. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]

It is a frame building with a brick veneer. Its original part is 45 feet (14 m) by 43 feet (13 m); a 20 feet (6.1 m) by 36 feet (11 m) was added in 1894. Both parts were built by brothers Anton and Ulrich Walser. It had a wooden front porch with pillars and a second story verandah which was removed in the 1950s.[2]

It was located across the street from the Burlington Depot, and much of its business was in serving employees of the railroad.[3]: 31 [2]
