The heritage-listed Hotel Gosford has been part of the Central Coast’s social scene since 1926. Proudly family-owned and operated, Hotel Gosford was purchased by local publican Peter Harris in 1998. His family remain at the helm of the hotel’s operations, with Peter’s son, Jordan now overseeing the day-to-day running of the venue along with the recent, biggest and boldest renovation Hotel Gosford has ever experienced. Committed to respecting the roots and heritage both of the building itself and the Gosford area, the Harris family are fiercely passionate about keeping the history of the venue alive, while creating a new and contemporary space for the Central Coast community to call home. Oh, and if you’re staying at Hotel Gosford, it’s worth checking out the heritage-listed elevator. Quite literally, take a ride back in time and feel a sense of Hollywood glamour when you close the gates and head up to your rooms.
