Mudgee Town Hall Hotel

1923

4 October 1923
HOT WATER-SERVICE
Country Hotel's Comfort MUDGEE, Thursday.
The local Licensing Magistrate (Mr. Prior) is determined to raise the standard of accommodation and comfort in country hotels, "Fewer hotels and better ones," is his ideal. In dealing with improvements submitted for his approval in connection with the Town Hall Hotel, Mr. Prior made it clear that he regarded the installation of a hot-water service as a necessity. The plea of the architect that this innovation would involve great expense had little effect, the magistrate remarking that hotel proprietors must now be prepared to spend more money, as their number had been reduced. They would be compensated by new trade. He did not like bath-heaters. They caused trouble and inconvenience, and were often kept under lock and key. He would pass the improvements submitted in this instance, but the installation of a hot-water service would probably be insisted upon in future1 .
