Great historic and lovely view in a magnificent town, Launceston N Central Tasmania. The area is filled with vineyards and top quality restaurants are numerous. This hotel is however quite a challenge for anyone with mobility issues especially if you’re on the second floor.

A great location, a gorgeous old building, close to the heart of Launceston. Great restaurants and parks close by, with on site parking, it all made for a lovely stay. A warm welcome from the staff and a lovely big room overlooking the park and river in the distance made for a most enjoyable stay.

Reception was very friendly and helpful. Parking was easy. There are a number of steps up to the hotel from parking but there is an entrance on the side where someone could be dropped off/picked up if they couldn't manage the steps. The room was very clean and my bed was very cozy and comfortable. I walked to the park with the monkeys which was very close, then downtown and then to the gorge along the zigzag trail and back which made for a long walk but was doable!

Beautiful old building with large spacious rooms. Wonderful view over Launceston from our room as well, a great base to explore the local area from.

8/10 Very good

Lovely room, only downside (which is on their website) is that it is upstairs with no lift so as long as you don’t mind carrying luggage up 2 flights you will be fine. The property is close to town but up a long steep hill so you need to be prepared to walk. There is good parking around and at the property though.

As we were arriving out of hours we were given clear and detailed instructions on how to check in. We appreciated the heater being on in our room, which was very clean. The updated bathroom with a spacious bath was a highlight. Although checking out at 10am we were able to arrange with the helpful receptionist to leave our bags in our room and collect them later on the way to the airport. Would love to stay here again and upgrade to a room with a view of the River.
