This a great hotel just out of the centre of Hobart but near the North Hobart dining strip. We love the clean bright and large rooms and free parking. We stay here often and really like it for good value rooms and the breakfast is tasty too.

This hotel is definitely haunted… Lots of reviews and stories online. The staff were nice. We checked out a little early due to a plumbing issue but got a refund for the final night so no arguments there.

Based in heritage lovely character building with plenty of space in rooms. A good option if you have a car for easy parking, and don't mind a decent walk or quick Uber/Taxi into town.

Fantastic little boutique hotel housed in an historic former school for the Blind and Deaf. The rooms are generously sized, beds comfy, staff polite and helpful, and it has a brilliant restaurant. One thing that I would recommend is to install heaters in the bathrooms as they get quite chilly. Also employ a bellboy/girl/person to help the reception (they do almost everything!). Will stay here again. :)
