The San Juan Hotel is an iconic landmark located in San Juan, Texas. The hotel's history is linked to the establishment of the San Juan Plantation, which not only predates the current structure but also the City of San Juan itself (est. 1917). The original building was constructed in 1909 as a much smaller two-story structure, but the township quickly outgrew its capacity and the new building which stands today was constructed in 1919. After decades of use and later neglect, the hotel was restored and a new addition was constructed in 1983. Then, in 1986, the San Juan Hotel was listed as a Recorded Texas Historical Landmark. UTRGV Special Collections & Archives is the repository for the Hidalgo County Historical Commission Collection, which includes research materials related to the historical marker.
