Originally built for the jeweller H. Samuel in 1887 it became a hotel which closed in 2002. Subsequently it had lain derelict and was ravaged by a fire in the last days of 2012. Beneath the hotel's name can be seen a large sundial, which bears the splendid inscription 'We Only Count The Sunny Hours'
