Description
Oatlands Park Hotel is a house that has been converted into a hotel. Originally built in 1794 by Henry Holland for the Duke of York, it was reconstructed in 1827 for Edward "Golden Ball" Hughes and further remodeled with a west wing added in 1856 by T.H. Whyatt when it was converted into a hotel. The building is designed in the Italianate style, featuring yellow stock brick with rendered dressings, hipped slate roofs, bracketed eaves, and panelled brick stacks.
The hotel has three storeys and includes a four-storey balustraded angle tower on the southwest corner. The south front of the tower features two bow windows that rise through two storeys. At the top of the tower is a hip-roofed belvedere loggia with a triple arch arcade on the north and south sides and four arches on the east and west sides.
The main front consists of a nine-bay range with sash windows on the left, which has a rendered string course over the first floor, a geometric pattern frieze over the ground floor, and rendered window surrounds at the ground floor with keystones that break into the frieze. To the right of the centre is a similar four-bay block, with another four-bay block that projects forward to the right.
There is a ballroom extension that has two storeys and an attic under a Mansard roof, projecting forward at the east end. The centre of the main front features a recessed three-bay entrance block under a lead square ogee domed roof, situated behind the triple-arched loggia with paired Roman Ionic columns on pedestals and a bracketed entablature. The entrance has triple glazed doors beneath traceried fanlights.
On the west front, which is the left-hand return front, there are two square bays on the ground floor, featuring a "Venetian" style surround to double half-glazed doors with Doric pilasters. There are also 20th-century additions to the left.
