The hotel had clean and comfortable rooms, and the staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The location was fantastic, making it easy to explore the area on foot. However, my stay was marred by a cramped room layout, overlooking a carpark, and I suffered from noise from the nightclub across the street during the weekend. Overall, it’s a great option for its price, but some improvements could be made.

I recently stayed at this hotel, and while there were some great highlights, there were also a few drawbacks. The location is excellent, just a short walk from Salamanca and the waterfront, making it super convenient for exploring Hobart. The rooms were spacious and offered a fantastic view of Mt. Wellington, but the room was freezing cold even with the heater turned on. The service was exceptional, with friendly staff who really went out of their way to help. However, the dining experience was a disappointment, especially the breakfast options.
