Description
The Lord Nelson Hotel, which includes the Low W. Range to St. Hamilton Terrace, is a three-storey building featuring a five-window front with stucco detailing that is likely from before 1880. It has a slate hipped roof and two large red brick chimneys. The front elevation is arranged in a 1-3-1 pattern, with the outer bays slightly projecting and adorned with quoins. The upper lunette windows are complemented by 12-pane sash windows on the first floor and 4-12-4-pane tripartite sashes on the ground floor, all topped with large stucco cornices supported by console brackets. The center features 6-pane upper sashes and 12-pane sashes elsewhere, with central doors framed by a later three-bay porch that has a cornice and parapet. All windows are fitted with moulded stucco architraves and keystones. A large stucco plaque reading 'Lord Nelson Hotel' is positioned between the upper floors in the center.
At the rear, there is an arched stair light and a first-floor lunette, along with wings on each side. The west rear wing includes an additional parallel range, while the east rear wing has a three-window arrangement similar to the main front. To the west of the main front is a one-and-a-half storey stable range, which was remodeled around 1855 from one side of a much longer original structure, with the existing west gatepiers being the centerpiece. This stable range features two tripartite sashes, a gabled loft window above, a door, and three windows beyond.
Internally, only the staircase remains largely as it was in the original plan, though the bottom newels are from the late 19th century. The staircase has stick balusters and plain column newels. The large dining room, where the Lord Nelson banquet and various civic functions took place, is located in the east wing, and some original details are reportedly preserved beneath the modern low ceiling and wall cladding.
