The want of adequate Hotel accommodation has been long fait to bo a groat drawback to the comforts of Railway travelling in this country , and the state of Hotel management and arrangements a serious defect , when compared with similar establishments in various parts of tho Continent and elsewhere .

This successful result is attributable to two causes , —tho incessant stream of Railway-passenger traffic , and tho high class of residents inhabiting tho surrounding district . In tho present instance , both those olomonts of success are found , nonce a largo return may bo reasonably anticipated , and the Directors , sovoral of whom are Directors of tho Groat Western Hotol at Paddington , propose to oonduot this Hotel upon tho principles adopted , and so successfully - carried out , In that establishment . - Tho Blto for tho orcotlon of tho Hotol Is in tho immediate i proximity of tho Intandod Terminus of tho " Victoria and i yimiico" Railway , at which point will then bo concentrated tho " Brighton and South Const , " tho " South-Eastorn " " West-End and Crystal Palace" and " Mast Kent" Railways , . and , eventually , it is bollovcd , fill tho linos south of tho Metropolis , tho tradlo of which may justly bo doomed of Bullloltint magnitude in itsolf to onsuro ammo support to an undertaking of this dosorl |) tion , whilo its situation in tho < midst of tho most fasliionublo parts of tho Metropolis , i Buckingham Palaco , Balgrnvift . and its adjacont districts ,, > WoHtmtiiHtor and tho l ' nrkn , must not bo 'bhiittod in estimating tho additional advantages attending Ita position , and ] tliu probability Qf Us patronise by famiHos , of dlstlnolion . pHlior as rouidonts or for tomi > orary purposes .
