HOLIDAY INN EXPRESS

The Holiday Inn Express in Mineola is a new 47,239 sq ft hotel project located at US HWY 69 and Debbby Lane. This privately funded construction effort was registered with TDLR in August 2022, with an estimated cost of $5,000,000. The filing identifies Reddy Hotels as the owner of record and RSS Architects LLC as the design firm. Naresh K Dham is the registered accessibility specialist for the project.

Construction was scheduled to begin in September 2022, with a planned completion date of October 2025. This timeline represents a build window of 1,126 days, which is longer than the Wood County median of 235 days for similar new construction filings. The estimated cost of $5,000,000 places the project in the top quarter of Wood County new construction filings, significantly above the county median of $1,050,000.

The Wood County unemployment rate was 5.5 percent in June 2026, higher than a year earlier.

TDLR has not yet recorded a final inspection, so the current state of the site is not confirmed in the public record. The plan review was completed in August 2022, and the TDLR status is listed as Review Complete. Third-party sources, including hotelgroundtruth.com, have listed the Holiday Inn Express Mineola TX with reviews and ratings, but these are independent assessments and not part of the TDLR construction record.
