The Railway Hotel was built in 1937 when the gold mining industry was booming. It's Art Deco/Modernist style set it as a standard for a luxury Hotel of the era. One night tariff was equal to a normal weeks wages and that was for a suite with a common bathroom. It's grand public spaces were packed with enthusiastic revellers celebrating their new found wealth soon after the end of the great depression. Post second world war The Railway Hotel was the centre of Norseman culture and the meeting place for weary travellers trekking across the Nullarbor. Little was spent on it's upkeep and by the end of the millennium it was in ruin. Under new ownership in 2002 the hotel was refurbished using reproduction Art Deco fittings and a colour scheme in harmony with the desert woodlands. It's serene atmosphere and garden make it again an oasis for travellers and locals. |
