dc.description	The Grand Hotel was located on the south-eastern corner of Church Square. The building was built by Mrs. Lys in 1890 and called the President Hotel. H. W. F. Burger was the proprietor in 1892. It became the Grand Hotel in 1894 with Mr. S. Schlomer as proprietor. This was one of the finest hotels in South Africa, comparing favourably with its European counterparts. It had accommodation for 70 visitors and had 30 white servants and 23 coloured attendants. The building was leased by Mr. Schlomer from Pretoria Estates Ltd., who had bought it from Mrs Lys. Source: DUNSTON, L. 1975. Young Pretoria - 1889-1913. PRETORIA: unknown. p.69.	en
