In 1967
Managing director of Papuan Airlines, Mr. Cliff Jackson, said in Sydney in July that Port Moresby’s big new luxury Gate way Hotel would be opened early in 1967, with 37 air-con ditioned twin rooms.
The hotel is owned by a Patair subsidiary and is costing $1 million.
Mr. Jackson said that although the hotel was seven miles from the harbour, it was “close to town” because of the huge development that had gone on at Boroko, only two miles away.
Taxis and drive-yourself services will be attached to the hotel.
The Gateway will provide 24hour room service.
