The making of a town produces many memories. Nambour’s landmark Club Hotel was originally the site of the Residential Hotel, built in 1911 as a timber saloon which provided accommodation only.

The hotel was re-named the Club Hotel in 1912 when a liquor licence was granted.The hotel was remodelled in the 1920s and destroyed by fire on January 7, 1938, in a blaze that decimated half of the town.

The present Club Hotel building was erected on the same site by December that same year.

The building was architecturally designed with cement walls. It was extensively improved in the 1960s and renovated again in 2008 with its distinctive art deco style still evident today.

For Currie St and the wider Nambour community, this building has stood as an important part of Nambour history in the heritage sugar town. It has been the gatekeeper to memories of the iconic cane train crossing the nearby main street where the tracks still remain today.

Fortunately previous tenants always had a mutual respect for the Club Hotel space, operating their businesses in a way that honoured the rich history and iconic features and left much of the original construction and style in place.
