This hotel looks to be the second build of the original two level hotel that was built and operated by James Gray. The original suspiciously burnt down, thought by some to be caused by James. The re-built Hotel was noted in James' will of 1895 given to his niece Mary Paterson who became the owner and Hotelkeeper after James died in 1900. Mary was the wife of Frederick Fuell, the town Clerk of Kaitangata.
