Hotel Rietmann is a historic two-story building in Troy, Idaho. It was designed in the Commercial and Romanesque Revival styles with pilasters and a corbeled cornice, and built in 1898 by Olaf F. Rudeen for Charles Rietmann, an immigrant from Switzerland.[2] It was purchased by Charles Tompson and renamed the Inland Hotel in 1911.[2] It belonged to Pearl M. Field from 1937 to 1939, when it was purchased by J. J. Berg, who opened a liquor store on the first floor.[2] When their son Norman acquired it in 1958, he added a restaurant but closed it in 1973; Berg sold the building in 1991.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since November 29, 2001.[1] The building was purchased in 2020 by Darrell and Brandi Chastain. The bar was reopened after a remodel and renamed the Pog Mo Thoin Pub.
