This gracious Hotel in Central is still a well run establishment, and the beautiful old building is lovingly cared for. It commands a wonderful view overlooking the Donkin Reserve, with its famous lighthouse and pyramid, and beyond that, the bay.

Pigeons are funny creatures, aren’t they? They always perch on one particular side of a roof. Picky birdies… :)That’s a gracious building, indeed. What a dream of a time guests must have on those terraces.

Very nice old building! I read the Fénix comment and I enlarged the photo and I can see all those pigeons on the roof! Beautiful!

It is a great building and I seem to recall from my architecture course that it was designed by some of PE’s best-known architects Jones & MacWilliams in the arts & crafts style popular at the time. Good to know the current owners are still lavishign attention on it!

I am French and lived in PE between 58 and 61. Nice to see that some old buildings are kept in excellent shape. Dont let Denton buy them
