The St. George Hotel, Volcano, California, is a three-story, brick, 14-room rectangular-shaped hotel built in 1867. The St. George Hotel provided miners lodging, meals and livery to the community. In 1880 when A. Petty purchased the St. George Hotel, it was recognized as one of the best hotels in the county.

The St. George Hotel is significant on the state level because it is an outstanding example of California Gold Rush era commercial architecture. The St. George is the fourth hotel on the site, the other three having been destroyed by fire. It has served as the community's major hotel since its construction in 1867 having remained in almost continuous operation for over 115 years.
