Well I couldn't believe my luck with this one, my first (working) Otis black bakelite button lift in person! A friend of mine showed me pictures of this hotel as they stayed here and knew I'd appreciate the vintage interior, and I was surprised to see what looked like an old Otis lift in a picture of the lobby.
Thankfully the pictures were correct and this old beauty is still going, it is also completely original except for the electric door sensors. It's single speed and relay controlled, and pretty fast for the amount of floors served. Even the 'In Use' lights still work on the call stations. All in all a true gem of a lift and getting very scarce these days.
