Experience The Jefferson Palace Guest House Hotel, set in the oldest building operating as a hotel in Texas. Built in 1851 by Jefferson's founder, Allen Urquhart, its walls hold a layered past. Before becoming a hotel, it was home to over 40 businesses, leaving behind a legacy of eclectic wonders, fascinating stories, and a famous haunted history.
From the moment you step inside, you'll be transported into a living 'cabinet of curiosities. Every corner tells a story, filled with an eclectic collection of fascinating antiques, unique artifacts, and intricate artwork that invites you to explore.
This is a place where exploration is a must. Every room tells its own story, each with a completely different theme. As you wander, you’ll discover genuine antiques—some over 600 years old—before stepping into the grand ballroom for an experience that can only be described as truly dream-like.
Enjoy the private, independent experience of a Guest House, made simple with easy self-check-in. Whether you choose a downstairs Victorian suite or an adventurous upstairs themed room, the space is yours. The onsite owners are available to answer any questions or provide assistance only if you need them, ensuring a comfortable and uninterrupted stay.
