After the Midland Bank had relocated to the northern end of the street, the building was converted in 1986 into a bar, restaurant and a 4-star rated, 20-bed, all-suite hotel.^[2] The building was bought by Centre Island Hotels in 2004 and refurbished to its current condition as a boutique hotel named “62 Castle Street”.
