Rose Hotel, Heritage hotel in Bunbury, Australia.
The Rose Hotel is a heritage-listed building with three stories located at the corner of Wellington Street and Victoria Street. It features multiple dining areas and accommodation rooms that have been developed over time as the original structure expanded.
Samuel Rose received the license to operate the hotel in 1865 following a request from local residents, leading to the construction of a single-story building. It was subsequently enlarged into a multi-story structure that became important to the town.
The hotel served as an important meeting place for the community over many decades and is valued by locals for its role in the town's social life. It remains a gathering spot where people connect over meals and drinks.
The hotel is walkable and accessible, offering both accommodation and a dining venue with regular food specials and craft beers on hand. It is family-friendly with a dedicated play area for children, making it suitable for visitors traveling with kids.
Renovations in 2016 uncovered original timber structures and historic brickwork that were preserved and integrated into the current design. These visible layers from different building periods show how the structure evolved over multiple generations.
