Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The Nelson Hotel Originally the New Inn, the name was changed in honour of the Admiral's visit in 1802. It stands in Hamilton Terrace, a broad promenade overlooking what Nelson claimed to "the finest natural harbour in the world". His visit was a publicity relations exercise to raise the profile of the town which was founded and developed largely through the efforts of Sir Charles Greville and his uncle Sir William Hamilton who were hoping to establish a naval dockyard here. Nelson however may have been more interested in Sir William's young wife, the notorious Emma Hamilton who had become mistress to all three of these men in turn, had married the elderly Sir William and had borne Nelson a daughter, Horatia, the year before.
