Nearly 130 years of Albany history is on the market in the form of the heritage-listed Premier Hotel.

Having been restored with a multi-million-dollar revamp following the unprecedented arson attack back in 2016, the country pub has been reinvigorated by developer Real Force to all markets, including youth, families and mature patrons.

Local firm, H + H Architects were appointed to design the 2-level hotel and have maximised the use of space by dropping plans for public accommodation quarters, and designing two bars across both storeys - one upstairs with a balcony overlooking the Albany Town Centre.

Mr Richardson said Albany was the "sleeping giant" of Western Australia.
