The Ginocchio or Ginocchio Hotel is a historic hotel that was originally constructed in 1896 next to the Texas and Pacific Railway station, which at that time was next door on the same side of the tracks in Marshall, Texas, to provide disembarking passengers with ready access to a hotel and restaurant facility. During its height, the building housed several U.S. Presidents and actor John Barrymore (whose father, Maurice Barrymore, was shot at the Marshall train station in 1879, and whose granddaughter is actress Drew Barrymore), among others[2]. The name is derived from the family that built the building, and is shared with the larger Ginocchio Historic District of the National Register of Historic Places. In 2017, the establishment reopened under new ownership as a restaurant and bar after being closed for renovations for two years[3].
