Description

The Club Hotel was also known as Tuckers Club Hotel after Mr Tucker took over the hotel in 1900. It was situated opposite the eastern corner of The Square and Church Street in Palmerston North. The hotel had sixty bedrooms and was built on two acres of land laid out in gardens and lawns for the use of guests. It consisted of a wooden building dating from 1882 (with additions) and a brick building, built 1905, on the left. The hotel continued to operate until 1977 when the wooden buildings were demolished to make way for the then PDC department store developments. The 1905 building is on the PNCC Heritage Inventory and has since been used by various retailers. It is currently the home of 'Pumpkin Patch' (2007)
