Beautiful boutique hotel near to the cbd
Pros:

Quaint 63 rooms boutique hotel with heritage history. The room is big and comfortable. Bathroom is huge too.

Cons:

The outdoor pool is too cold to swim. Will be nicer if there’s a gym too.

They should more care for their customers.
Pros:

Great location, very convenient and easy to access. Beautiful building with nice antique furniture — clean and well maintained.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the breakfast quality was poor and there was very limited variety. I was asked to pay extra specifically for a boiled or fried egg, as they only serve scrambled eggs. Due to the poor breakfast quality, I ended up cancelling it altogether, which was disappointing.

A nice stay. Aim to get a room in the main building for better views and light
Pros:

Good location and helpful staff. Breakie was good value when booked the night before. Lovely morning sunshine in the breakie room too.

Cons:

Our room was in the newer buildings, right up against the road. It wasn’t ideal and the lounge room was very dark. The photos when booking didn’t really show the difference between the different room types so worth checking where your room will be. Being January they were fully booked and unable to move us.

Very good hotel in North Hobart, with large rooms and kind staff. It is quite expensive, but nothing in Hobart is cheap.
Pros:

The hotel is more beautiful than in the pictures, I must say it has exceeded my expectations. Good location and very nice staff, large room with plenty of space.
