Founded in 1972, Murphco of Florida opened its first property, a Holiday Inn, in Jennings, Louisiana. This humble beginning was the first step in Murphco of Florida’s journey. By the early ’80s Murphco had expanded and opened hotels in both Jacksonville & Tallahassee, Florida. By the late ’90s we owned multiple properties throughout Louisiana and Florida.
Our success is mainly due to a simple philosophy – “Put people first.” We are more than just a team; we are FAMILY.
