The Mobberly Hotel opened for business in 1884 in Longview, Texas, as one of the finest hotels between El Paso, Texas, and New Orleans, Louisiana. Popular with travelers and railroad employees alike, the lavishly furnished three-story, 80-room hotel served Longview for almost 80 years. The Mobberly Hotel closed in the early 1960s and a fire destroyed it during the early morning hours of Sunday, June 13, 1965.
