Since its grand opening in 1918, the Casa de Palmas Hotel has stood as a cornerstone of McAllen’s rich history, gracefully evolving alongside the city it calls home. Through decades of change, growth, and progress, this historic gem has retained its timeless charm and significance. With each chapter of McAllen’s story, Casa de Palmas has been there, offering a living testament to the city's vibrant past. Beloved by the McAllen community and cherished across the state, Casa de Palmas is not only a symbol of local pride but also a celebrated icon recognized by the Texas Historical Commission. Its enduring legacy is a reflection of the spirit and resilience of both the hotel and the city it serves. It is both a privilege and an honor to continue sharing Casa de Palmas with the Rio Grande Valley, a place where history, culture, and hospitality intertwine, inviting all who enter to be part of its storied journey. As we look ahead, we remain committed to preserving its legacy, ensuring that future generations may continue to experience the charm and history of this treasured and iconic landmark located in downtown McAllen, Texas.
