The Historic Guildford Hotel, gutted by fire 8 years ago, has been restored to its former glory and celebrates its official opening today.
Airey Taylor Consulting completed the Structural Engineering on this project which undertook a 2 year restoration process after it was leased to the Publican Group in 2013. The Guildford Hotel has a lot of history in the Perth community and the whole building was carefully renovated to hero the heritage features and blend it with a new, contemporary feel.
The hotel’s original features have been displayed throughout the bar and it’s rooms, as a reminder of it’s history dating back to the 1880’s. Included in this is the replica of the original belvedere, which was installed earlier this year, built to the specifications found in a 1914 watercolour drawing of the hotel.
Works will continue on the hotel in the upcoming years expanding it to include more areas for larger events.
