How is it Significant?
The Bristol Hotel is of local historic and aesthetic significance to the City of Hobsons Bay.
Why is it Significant?
Historically, it is significant as an example of the more substantial hotels that were constructed following changes to liquor licensing regulations in the late nineteenth century and also demonstrates how hotels occupied key corner sites close to industry and stations. (AHC criteria A4 and D2)
Aesthetically, although altered, it is significant as an interesting example of a Victorian Boom Style hotel with notable details and decorations that are rare in Williamstown, which responds to the unusual shape of the site. It is an important corner element on this prominent intersection that relates in scale and siting to Owen's buildings and the Rifle Club Hotel and contributes to the historic character of the area.
