Historic Stays & Mother’s Day: Gift-giving at the Hotel Alex Johnson

While we, here at the historic Hotel Alex Johnson, believe moms deserve praise and celebration 365 days a year, we’d be remiss to not acknowledge the many accomplishments and achievements of the mom-figures in our lives on Mother’s Day!

Home to 95 years of cherished history, etched by countless displays of affection, weddings, anniversaries, and so much more, the Hotel Alex Johnson has got our mom game on-lock. Ahead of Mother’s Day 2023, we’ve put together a guide for creating Mother’s Day magic in Downtown Rapid City on and beyond Sunday, May 14.

THE MOTHER OF ALL MOTHER’S DAY BRUNCHES(ES)

It wouldn’t be Mother’s Day without Mother’s Day Brunch at the Hotel Alex Johnson. No ifs, ands or buts about it. Keeping in line with Hotel Alex Johnson tradition, Mother’s Day Brunch in the Alex Johnson Ballroom is certain to dazzle any mom-figure, boasting bountiful spreads of breakfast & lunch favorites, desserts, goodies and, most importantly, MIMOSAS. All moms get one free mimosa just because, but if one isn’t enough, we’ve got mimosas of the bottomless variety, too.

Looking to gift mom a more-elevated Mother’s Day Brunch experience in Downtown Rapid City? Enter Vertex Sky Bar’s B(R)UNCHES OF LOVE Mother’s Day Brunch! With an elevated price-point designed to deliver luxury at every bite, Mother’s Day Brunch at Vertex Sky Bar is destined to impress, featuring elevated provisions and unmistakable views that can only be seen from our tenth and eleventh floor oasis. Limited to groups of four or less, Vertex is the perfect place to spend Mother’s Day if you’re looking for a relaxed atmosphere and world-class cuisine.

 

The Alex Johnson Mercantile

Home to countless precious goods collected from local artisans, small businesses, and creators, The Alex Johnson Mercantile makes Mother’s Day Shopping almost too easy, with a variety of sentimental wares that will suit the taste of any mom!

From precious silver and gold to turquoise, pearl, and more, The Alex Mercantile has a notoriety for sourcing rings, necklaces, bracelets, and other accessories that you won’t find anywhere else – and even offers jewelry made in-house in limited runs. Beyond jewelry, The Alex Mercantile continues to bring the heat, offering a stunning array of mom-certified wares including framed and unframed artwork from local artists, hand-poured candles, artisanal lotions, artifacts and so, so much more. Adjoining the Hotel Alex Johnson Lobby, the Alex Mercantile is honestly the kind of place you could easily one-and-done shopping for Mother’s Day – and mom won’t be mad you did!
