Reviews and Ratings
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is unbeatable, just a short walk to Salamanca and close to all the city amenities. The rooms are cozy, with a lovely window to the outside world, and the service went above and beyond, making my check-in a breeze and helping me with my heavy bags. The dining experience was delightful, especially the handmade pasta, although some improvements in the rooms would be great. I highly recommend this hotel for a convenient and pleasant stay in Hobart.
Staying in this hotel was a delightful experience with beautiful old leather chairs by sunlit windows for a relaxing read. The room was huge with one of the comfiest beds I've ever had; it was soundproof and very easy to sleep in. However, heating was a bit challenging at times.
I found the hotel to be a lovely place with a few minor drawbacks. The rooms, though slightly small and took some time to heat, were spacious with plenty of natural light. They were equipped with all necessities like air conditioning, free Wi-Fi, a TV, bar fridge, and comfortable beds, making the stay pleasant. However, I did feel the service was a bit over the top at times. The location was great being close to many attractions, but there was some noise from the busy road. The dining experience was enjoyable, especially the breakfast selection, and the facilities were satisfactory.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room, despite being the premium option, felt old and worn, but it was incredibly spacious. Noise from other guests going out for smoke breaks could disrupt the peace. On the bright side, the location was perfect for exploring all that central Hobart has to offer, with beautiful, historic decor adding to the charm. The service was friendly and professional, although it didn't always match the clientele. The dining experience offered a good variety, but the absence of hot food was a downside.
