Originally built in 1928, the Historic Spur Hotel was renovated and preserved in 1990 and reopened as a boutique hotel. It has been listed as a "Top Ten Small Hotels in Texas" and is one of few Historic Hotels of Texas left on the Panhandle Plains. The Spur plays host year round to book enthusiasts browsing Larry McMurtry's book stores, guests of the famous Royal Theater, various workshops and retreats, hunters from all over the country, as well as the businessman or family looking for a small town stop in their travel plans.
