It was the first privately owned hotel in the city. Five years later, in 1969, Mosharraf Hossain, son of the hotel's founder, and Sheikh Mujibur Rahman stayed at this hotel during a trip to Cox's Bazar, and a candlelight dinner was organized in their honor. In independent Bangladesh in 1979, Mosharraf Hossain converted it into a resort with 75 rooms. Later Sheikh Hasina and Sheikh Rehana were also guests of this hotel.
