Statement of Significance
The former Steam Packet Hotel was erected on this site in 1841/42 by Samuel Hutchison and was possibly prefabricated in Tasmania. It was the sixth recorded hotel to be opened in Portland. The two storey timber structure with attic floor illuminated by gabled dormers and shingle roof has been recently restored. The Steam Packet Hotel is one of Portland's, and therefore Victoria's oldest buildings. Its simple construction and materials are typical of buildings dating from these pioneering years in the history of the town. The picturesque attic dormers and architrave detail to the front door are particularly unusual in Victoria.
