The El Cortez Hotel, at 239 W. 2nd St. in Reno, Nevada, is a historic Art Deco-style hotel that was designed by Reno architects George A. Ferris & Son and was built in 1931. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.[1][2]

It was deemed significant as fine example of Art Deco architecture and of the work of the Ferris firm. Seven stories tall, it was the tallest building in Reno. It is decorated with low-relief terra cotta work. In 1983 it still served as a hotel.[2]

El Cortez was purchased by The Siegel Group in 2014.[3]
