This hotel dates back to 1913 and has seen hauntings ever since. Simon Benson, its original owner, is seen frequently on the staircase, in the common room area and in the business offices located on the hotel's lower levels. A friendly ghost of a night porter is known to help those in need, then disappears when his job is done. A ghostly lady in a white dress and a young boy are also said to wander the rooms and halls.
