Hi,
I am looking for a photograph of the Repulse Bay Hotel around the 1940s/1950s. My dad lived there during that time and I live here now, and so I think it would be a touching gift. I have been looking for one for some years now, but have been unable to find one so far.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Kind regards,
Melissa
The complex has a package of
The complex has a package of old postcards for sale. Go for afternoon tea. Sadly, they just remodeled the Verandah and put in a marble floor to replace the wood one, and, more to the point, reduced the size of the toilet cubicles ! So it has lost a bit of its "romance". (of course it was demolished and rebuilt in the 1980s, so the new one was not "antique").

I have just scanned a photo of the Repulse Bay Hotel from the late 1950's - it is of the front of the hotel - we used to go to Sunday tiffin there each week. I will put them up tomorrow as I am still scanning!

re: 1950's Repulse Bay Hotel
Hi Melissa,
In addition to the photos that Annelise and Alison mention, there's this picture from the 1920s. I haven't included it in our catalogue of photos for sale because it's in colour. If it's suitable for you, please drop me a line (
), and I'll check pricing with the printer.
Regards, David
