The hotel building is 150 yrs old but I think it is very comfortable to live in. There are only 5 free parking slots. I had to pay for the parking outside. There is notice saying that pre-booking is required however I revisit their website again and cannot find any related information.

Okay stay

Location good. Rooms need some renovation, especially the bathroom. Bedding not very comfortable. Parking needs to be reserved beforehand. Good for people on a tight holiday schedule and just need a place to rest.

Lots to like. Reception ladies were delightful. Breakfast & real coffee fantastic. Free happy hour wines! Room "interesting" Taller than it was wide! Bathroom/shower great. Beds ok except for plastic lumps! But the TV was awful. Interference on all (limited) channels. Interrupted sound. Top city hotel! Time to invest in 21st century TVs. Parking was great.

Hobart Anniversary

Loved our stay. Breakfast was very welcomed. Staff were friendly. The room was comfortable and quiet. Close to the city and salamanca markets. Unfortunately our room wasn't made up and their was some food items left from previous guest otherwise everything was excellent. Would definitely stay here again.

This is a wonderful old, elegant building equipped with all the necessary modern conveniences (except no elevators/lifts which was no problem for us). The continental breakfast was lovely. The staff were friendly and helpful. The location is perfect for getting around town. It is just one block from stop 4 on Skybus for getting to and from the airport. After that we walked everywhere. It was just 10-15 minutes or less to everything we needed including restaurants, bars, the waterfront, shopping, and several museums. We would definitely stay here again!
