Who We Are
The Echo Hotel has served the Edinburg community and lower Rio Grande Valley since 1959.
The hotel was originally established by a group of citizens who wanted to build a hotel to host conferences. The Edinburg Community Hotel Organization named their hotel & conference center using the acronym for their organization.
Over 1,000 people participated by buying shares of the hotel, including mom & pop stores throughout the area.
The Echo Hotel changed ownership in 1990, and has since gone through many changes and upgrades, while still retaining the charm & nostalgia of the original Echo Hotel.
"It's our people that make the hotel so unique. When new ownership came to the hotel in the early 90's, they've really made great improvements to it and ever since then, they have been working hard to make the changes and improve the hotel's image, always keeping it up to date" says Joe Nunez, hotel manager for the past 35years.
