A MUST for Frank Lloyd Wright fans
Even if you do not love Frank Lloyde Wright, don't miss the chance to visit, eat in, and sleep in a piece of art! The Price Tower is home to the Price Art Center, where you can view not only examples of FLW's designs, but actually go up into the tower to see the unique design and go into the original penthouse office (originally built as an office building with residential and commercial spaces within), painstakingly restored with original furnishings, and one of the original apartments.
I stayed the night at the Inn at Price Tower. Decorated in FLW inspired furniture, it is both modern and comfortable. A heated tile floor in the bathroom, refrigerator stocked with (free) bottled water, and a fabulous restaurant upstairs!
Bartlesville is about a 20 - 45 minute drive outside of Tulsa (2 - 3 hours outside of OKC) depending on traffic. The town is surprisingly sophisticated, thanks largely to the oil money in town, and the philanthropic nature of the community!
