Hotel 1928, Waco, TX
In the heart of Waco, TX, sits the Hotel 1928, an inspired hospitality experience designed and developed by Chip and Joanna Gaines, and transformative hospitality company AJ Capital Partners. Located at 701 Washington Street, Hotel 1928 is the historic restoration and adaptive reuse of the former Grand Karem Shrine Building. Named after the year the building was completed, Hotel 1928 offers 33 guest rooms, three food and beverage outlets, over 6,600 square feet of event space, along with a rooftop terrace.
The loving restoration retains the historic architectural features, including Moorish-style arched entry, clay tile roofs, and carved stonework. A new rooftop addition seamlessly blends with the original structure, offering sweeping views of the Magnolia Silos. The project has achieved landmark status with the National Register of Historic Places, and as such, the renovation was coordinated with the Texas Historic Commission and the National Parks Service.
