In 2003, the exterior was restored to its original state,[2] and the lobby ceiling was stripped to reveal the previous paintwork. It was reopened as a boutique hotel. The restoration earned it a national Architectural Heritage award.[2] Furnishings include old dentist's chairs and theatre seats,[3] as well as more modern items.
In 2006, a company called Ministry of Design designed the interior architecture for the building.[4]
