History
The building occupied by today's Hotel dates from the 17th century and is a merger of two buildings faced with flints originally built by wealthy merchants, who at the time, there were many in this seaport city. During the 1600s there were many merchants in Yarmouth, many of whom arrived in the cities of the Netherlands. They have arrived after the devastation that Black Death has inflicted on the city, killing more than 7,000 city dwellers. This merchant has prospered, handling the export of fish, grains and wool. Many traders built brick and stone houses along the side of the pier. Very few examples of these houses survive in today's city, but for those who remain, Star Hotel is now one. This original merchant house was built by William Crowe. He is a very rich man, and twice a Yarmouth court clerk. His home is in one of the main residential areas of the city, close to the bridge across the Yare River marking the main road into town. In the 18th century, the house belonged to Thomas Dawson. The house was then passed on to the ownership of Robert Wilson who was a corn merchant. After his death, the house was handed over to the ownership of the Bradshaw family. In the later part of the 18th century, the property was changed from a house to Star Tavern by the Bradshaw family. The Bradshaws also transformed a malt house linked to the property to the stables and coaches, an important facility of every store in the period. For the next hundred years, Bintang has several different owners. In 1822, the owner was Mr. William Woolverton. During his tenure he made some improvements in the shop, adding billiard rooms and dining rooms to replace the stable blocks.
Charles Dickens
In 1848 Charles Dickens visited and lived in Great Yarmouth while collecting material for his book David Copperfield and many city buildings have their places in books including Star, which became the Inn of David and Steerforth lives.
Royal Mail
In 1819, the Star Tavern was the terminus of Yarmouth for trainers of royal letters, leaving for London every day at 2:00 pm. In 1845, the store was also a terminal for a letter to Birmingham, and a coach left for Leicester at 4:40 pm.
Demolition and re-location
In the 1920s, Star Tavern was owned and run by the Bayfield family. It is now known as the Star Hotel . In October 1930 The Star Hotel was prepared for sale by Bayfields. The building was sold for Ã, Â £ 1850.00 to the Postmaster General, to be dismantled to pave the way for telephone exchanges that occupy buildings adjacent to the South. Parts of the interior building are sold by the auction before the demolition of the building. The panel and ceiling of one of the rooms, known as the Nelson's room, was purchased and removed and shipped to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York where they can be seen to this day.
Lord Horatio Nelson
Admiral Horatio Nelson often stays at Star Hotel and the room he always reserves for him is known as Nelson's Room. This is the elaborate equipment and equipment of this room that is now an exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum in New York.
Re-location
After the demolition of this first hotel, Bayfields bought the building next to it. This building, called Rumah Batu has also been built by a wealth merchant by the name of Anthony Ellys in 1764 on the site of a much older house. The Star Hotel license was moved to a new premise thus continuing the name. This new property also has many amazing features such as rooms with panels installed similar to the already-described interior rooms sold to the Metropolitan Art Museum. Since 1881 Stone House has also become a hotel and is called the Cromwell Temperance Hotel. By the time of its sale in 1930 it was owned by Mr. Frank Woolsey. In 1946 a further expansion to the hotel took place. Some of the cottages that stand behind the hotel are acquired and become part of the hotel complex. The business, now called Great Yarmouth Star Hotel (1930) Ltd was renamed to New Star Hotel . In 1946, ownership changed hands again and is now part of Norfolk and Suffolk Hotels Ltd. In 1949, the lodges at the rear were destroyed and the hotel was extended and repaired. Once again the hotel was sold to Truman Hanbury Buxton and Co. Ltd. In 2001 the hotel was taken over by Queens Moat Hotels Ltd and renewed and part of the Elizabeth Hotel group. Unfortunately in 2009 Elizabeth Group Hotel went into administration. This caused the hotel to be taken over by Brazile Ltd. Since 2010, the Hotel has been owned by Geraldine Thornton.
On December 16, 2015 It manifested that the hotel has indeed been closed and is in the process of rising because it has been closed since Sunday.
