Perfect location to stay at as it is close to shops, restaurants and the mall.
Pros:

The size of the room and the comfortable beds.
Location of the hotel is excellent. Very close to shops and restaurants and the mall.
Large flat screen TV.
Overall value for money for accommodation.

Cons:

The shower over the bath.(bathroom needs a revamp)
Better off getting rid of the bath and just having a walk in shower.(very hard for older people to get in and out.)
I also didn't like the tiny uht milks for hot drinks. It would have been nicer having a proper small carton of real milk.

We were extremely happy with our choice of the Grand Chancellor for our first visit to Launceston.
Pros:

Reception staff were very friendly and professional. Our room was very comfortable, and we felt we had good value for money. The position of the hotel is great, very central and near the park

Cons:

Breakfast was ok but not many members of staff around to clear tables etc.

また泊まりたいホテル
Pros:

クレイドルマウンテンに行くバスの集合地点だったのでこちらを選びましたが、ローセストンの老舗のホテルという感じで、外観もお部屋もきれいでした。周辺は静かな場所でしたが、商店のある通りまで歩いてすぐ。またホテル内のレストランにハッピーアワーがあったり、お料理もおいしかったです。スタッフの方もみなフレンドリーで親切でした。

Cons:

特になし。
