📜 Step into history with the iconic North Star Hotel in Melrose!

Writer's picture: JulieJulie

The first North Star Hotel, built in 1854, was a simple log hut, welcoming travelers to South Australia’s first Flinders Ranges town. In 1882, the current stone building was constructed, making it the oldest existing hotel in the Flinders today.


By 1910, the hotel had expanded into the impressive double-storey structure you see in this historic photo, symbolizing the growth and spirit of Melrose. Inside, history lives on with charming vintage touches like the original fridges, warm fires in winter, and hearty meals served with true South Australian hospitality.
