The Beckwith House Hotel, at 101 W. Huron St. in Berlin, Wisconsin, is a historic hotel built in 1863. It has also been known as Hotel Whiting.[1] It is located on what is now Wisconsin Highway 49. The hotel was built by Nelson F. Beckwith.[2] Beckwith, who also owned the Nelson F. Beckwith House, later became a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1991.[1]

It is apparently different from the Beckwith House, a hotel built in Oshkosh in 1876, after the great fire of 1875, replacing a previous hotel built in 1867 and renamed to the Beckwith House in 1873.[3]
