Forbes Hotel

Red brick Federation Anglo Dutch style tavern for inner city patrons which occupies a prominent corner position. With pressed metal and plaster ceilings and internal timber balustrades, it once provided budget accommodation in the heart of the city. It appears that there was an hotel of the same name at this corner since 1838.
