Hobart hotels & places to stay

This is a good Hobart hotel. It's well located with easy access to all the local sights, restaurants, waterside activities. Hotel staff are professional if somewhat impersonal, and very efficient. The rooms are of a good standard and all the expected amenities are available. Although situated in the middle of things, our room was quiet. This hotel has a good reputation and we were not disappointed.

After reading many negative reviews I decided to try it nevertheless because of the casino at the base. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of service beautiful peaceful surroundings good choice of restaurants and activities available. The birdcage had live music every night. They have expanded their casino although small it is adequate. Our room was an executive which had been refurbished and directly overlooked the water. It was 5 star. My only compliant is that although I arrived at 2pm I was unable to check in because the room wasn't ready until 1430 and I had asked for elevation and received 5th floor from a choice of 16. That simply isnt good enough however I was given complimentary drink each while we waited. In my opinion its the best place to stay in hobart.

We snuck away for a late planned 3 day weekend and were fortunate the hotel had capacity for us (there were several conferences on). We stayed in a Superior Harbour View room the first night and a Superior Mountain View room the second night. Both were very spacious and comfortable with great views and good wifi (if your budget allows go for the Superior Harbour). It's not the trendiest hotel in Hobart, but we were pleasantly surprised at how nice the indoor pool and gymnasium were and the buffet breakfast was great. To cap this off the staff were extremely friendly and very accommodating. We would have enjoyed our long weekend in Hobart regardless, but the quality of the service and facilities on offer at the Grand Chancellor made this a really memorable visit.

used this hotel for a mid week getaway for a catch up trip with an old friend. the location was perfect for relaxing and also sight seeing around hobart. we spent evenings out on the balcony just chatting, watching the boats and the people walking by. with a glass of wine in hand it was the perfect place to chill out and relax. infact although there were many good restaurants in close proximity we found ourselves preferring to pick up takeaway and eat on the balcony. there is a well equipped kitchen so you could even cook for yourself if desired. there are two supermarkets and liquor stores within 10 minutes walk. based on previous review suggestions we asked for a room not above the restaurants and on checking when arriving if this had been allocated they were more than happy to show us two rooms suitable for our needs and allow us to choose for ourselves. this excellent service continued throughout our stay with all the staff encountered extremely helpful and keen to make our stay a pleasant experience. as it happened there was no evident noise from the restaurants however this may be different on weekends.the bedrooms are above the main lounge area and bathroom in a loft style setup which you acess by a set of stairs. this could be a difficulty for people with mobility problems however there is one disabled unit where apparently a sofa bed can be set up downstairs. we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this hotel if you want to be in a location with views and good proximity to all hobart has to offer.

every villa has a stunning vista of hobart from 200ft up. what brochures don't tell you is that hobart is VERY hilly. so to stay at the villa, be best advised to have your own mode of transport to get around. the villa did not have restaurant facilities but is a short drive to the centre of town where you will be spoilt for choice. there is also a park behind the villas that is worth a walk and a chance encounter with local wildlife.

Conveniently located near Salamanca Place at Battery Point , St Ives is definitely an ideal location to stay if you are visiting Hobart. Theres a Coles and Woolsworth not far away as well to stock up on groceries to cook in the lovely kitchen provided. A 30min drive to the top of Mount Wellington, less than 10min drive to Cat and Fiddle Shopping arcade in downtown Hobart. The staff were lovely as well. Overall a great 3 nights stay.

We recently stayed at Sullivan Cove Apartments in the IXL complex in Hobart in a 2 bedroom apartment. The apartment was very spacious and the staff were very helpful. The design of the ensuite bathroom for the main bedroom was a little ill-thought out: a double open shower in a small space meant the rest of the bathroom (toilet, floor, sink area) got drenched if anyone had a shower due to the lack of screen. The ventilation in this bathroom was also lacking which meant it was a little musty in smell. However, there was a second bathroom which was better ventilated and had a shower/bath set-up, which was more than ample. The wifi signal was not particularly reliable, but otherwise all the mod cons of the room were more than sufficient. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay, easy check-in and check-out process, and all within great proximity to popular restaurants, bars, and harbour sites. I'd certainly stay with Sullivan Cove Apartments again if I were to ever revisit Hobart.

Somerset On Salamanca is perfect place for a relaxing, quite, next to home accommodation for couples and even business travelllers and easily accessible to most major places of interest when visiting Hobart. The room is comfortable, clean, quite and has a great view of Derwent River and its harbour right at your balcony. The staff were very accommodating as exemplified in particular by Bria who even insisted on dropping us off to our airport shuttle pick up point as it was raining on our check out day. Thanks for the wonderful and memorable days at Somerset on Salamanca.

we had a great time, the reception staff were all excellent with my enquiries about local areas and information on how to get there. the restaurant meals were great and service was prompt with friendly staff. I would definitely stay there again and recommend the motel to any friends who may be travelling to Hobart. my son was entertained by 'blindy' the duck and we used the barbecue facilities which were ample for our needs.

It is only a few minutes to New Town and less than 15 minutes to North Hobart / Hobart. The room is very basic but all facilities are there. Bed is comfortable and bathroom contains all amenities. Shower gels, hand lotions etc are from dispensers. There is a communal kitchen if you want to cook. Reception and cleaning staff are very friendly and helpful. There is enough parking space in the Lodge and there is also street parking. For the price you pay compared with the price in the Hobart CBD, it is value for money.

when you just need to get a bath and a comfortable bed right out from a long haul flight, this hotel is a godsend. the cabin has 2 bedrooms - one with a queen bed and the other a double. there is a fridge, stove and tv - just about everything you'd expect of a cabin near city. and most importantly, this place is quiet. hobart is 15 minutes away - please be aware of speed cameras on the bridge across the bay. my family used this place to visit hobart, bruny island and port arthur. while not the best located for sightseeing hobart city itself, this is definitely a good choice for driving around the south-eastern areas of tasmania.

Great old hotel that has traded as a hotel longer than any other hotel in Hobart. Checking in was quick and efficient and we were directed to your room. Climbing historic staircases and looking down a long hallway that has dropped a little overtime we entered our room which was enormous. So large that the TV was about 7 metres from the bed end. Bathroom was fine and towels were very generous and soft. The room was very quiet and the curtains turned day into night and made it easy to sleep in. Breakfast was a choice from buffet to set menu and was very nice and arrived quickly and hot. The only problem we had was with our credit card type door key which failed us about 6 times, something that needs updating and the staff were sorry and embarrassed by this issue. Checking out was also quick and efficient and we could leave our bags whilst awaiting airport transfers. Enjoyed my stay and a drink at the old bar with great old history is memorable.

We have stayed at Woolmers twice before. It is reasonably cheap for accommodation in Hobart. The rooms are definitly a bit dated and could do with some work. We stayed in winter and our heater kept on shorting out the circuits in the room. The fan in the bathroom also did not work. The best thing about Woolmers is the location. You are a 5min walk to shops and restaurants of Sandy Bay, a 10min walk to Salamanca and 20min walk to the casino. Not sure if I would want to stay there again but may have to as prices of other hotels in Hobart are quite high

I'm so happy to stay at Montacute for 2 nights and it's the best backpacker hostel I've ever been to! Everything is very clean and tidy. People are nice and quiet at night. I had very good deep sleep. Also, the owners are very friendly and not just run their family business for money only. They take care of backpackers. For example, beds are very comfty and high quality Tasmanian made bed linens are provided. This bunkhouse is always fully booked so don't miss the chance if you see any available room. I stayed in Hobart for 3 nights but couldn't book this for 1 night :(

Battery Point is the most attractive and convenient place to stay in Hobart. From Blue Hills it's a lovely walk past attractive houses and gardens to Salamanca Place with its excellent cafes, restaurants and shops and of course the famous Salamanca markets on Saturdays with over 300 stalls. Motel rooms are very comfortable and the staff very obliging to fulfil requests.

mantra one sandy bay road apartments are in a great location opposite lovely gardens and 5 minute walk to hobart cbd, salamenca and battery point. we stayed for one night ina one bedroom suite on the second floor looking back over the mountains. the room was huge, clean, comfortable and modern! we didn’t fly out until late on our last day and the staff organised for our bags to be stored for the day and for someone to get them out when we wanted to leave. reception were very helpful with tourist and non-touristy things to do around hobart. we will definitely be back, next time for longer!

Amidst good reviews and having had good previous experiences we hit a bad day. Our room was great and overall the hotel remains in the top end of Hobart accomodation. Our experience was spoilt due to management not putting enough staff on in the breakfast room. Double time obviously an issue. This is the result of being MEAN. It was mothers Day !! We booked the Winter Special, includes complimentary breakfast. Arrived at the breakfast room at 9.15. Buffet breakfast was set out but almost empty. 30 + patrons awaited service by one front of house for hot breakfast orders. We learnt only one cook was rostered on !! We asked politely for service to the overworked floor staff to be told there was an hours wait for hot breakfast !!! Check out is in 45 minutes . The waiter said there were external bookings for Mothers Days and he did not know why there were no staff allocated. Other hotel guests were seen leaving without any service or breakfast. We sought redress at reception to be told it is Sunday and staff are not rostered on !!! This is an objective review and we find it hard to believe standards could slip so far. Please review your human resources and return to higher standards. AND why offer services that cannot be provided. We where inHobart for a funeral and had time commitments. We were very disappointed that our expectations were not met. Reception, front of house server and chef did not handle well the questions we asked regarding the way the breakfast worked. So disappointing.

We went for 16 days in Aussie, and our first destination was Hobart. We were greeted warmly on arrival. The staff was very friendly. He helped us in everywhere he can, such as lending us adaptor and guide us how to set the GPS on our car. Upon entering the room, we were surprise to see a bottle of red wine, a token from the hotel for our honeymoon celebration. The room is spacious and clean, it looked just like newly renovated. We have a wonderful stay there for 4D3N. Best hotel to choose when u go to Hobart. Near to Salamacca (3-5 mins walk) and many pubs/cafes nearby. Highly recommended. Thank you Lenna of Hobart Hotel.
