They explored key amenities including the 24-hour My Store, stocked with everyday essentials and snacks, a guest laundry facility, and spacious guest rooms equipped with full kitchens—featuring a cooktop, microwave, and refrigerator—giving travelers the flexibility to prepare and enjoy home-cooked meals. Not to mention, this 64-key property is 100% pet-friendly, so your furry friends are always welcome.

My Place Hotel-St. Joseph, MO, which officially opened its doors on January 8th is located near numerous tourist attractions, including the Jesse James Home Museum, the Pony Express Museum, and the Remington Nature Center. The new hotel fills an evident gap in guest rooms for the area, and community members unanimously expressed their excitement for travelers visiting St. Joseph to have another option. 

“We have been anxiously awaiting this hotel opening.” said Deputy Mayor, Randy Schultz. “With all the major events coming to our city, we just don’t have enough places to put people. My Place will help us better accommodate travelers with a clean, comfortable and affordable option.”

St. Joseph is one of ten properties that will be developed throughout the Southeast over the next few years as part of a recent development and franchise agreement between My Place Hotels and Rimrock Companies.
