Hotels near Cenotaph, Hobart

How to describe it... the room was very spacious with high ceilings, and both the views outside and the common areas inside were fantastic. The breakfast was a set meal, beautifully prepared and delicious – more than enough to eat. The downside was that upon arrival at 5 PM, the staff had already left. I called them, but their English wasn't great, and it took me half an hour to figure out how to open the password lock and get the room card. The staff work from 8 AM to 4 PM, and breakfast starts at 8 AM, which is a bit late. I stayed for three nights but only managed to have breakfast once due to the timing. In the bathroom, there were no mouthwash cups. The sink was too small, and water would splash out easily if the tap was turned on too much. The faucet looked nice, but it was hard to find the right water temperature; you had to turn it millimeter by millimeter to adjust it. On the plus side, parking was convenient and free, which is a definite advantage since most hotels charge for it.

Crazy how amazing everything was. One of the best hotel experiences we have ever had. Staff were extremely friendly, and the building just looked amazing. The free cake for our anniversary was a very nice touch.

The room wasn't very big, and since I booked only a week in advance, the price was a bit higher than expected. Overall, the hygiene was acceptable, although there were hairs on the bed and in the bathroom when I checked in. The hotel staff helped us resolve that. I forgot to take photos of the room, but you can refer to the hotel's pictures and other reviews; they're all pretty similar. It's worth noting that international hotels aren't as accommodating as domestic ones when it comes to upgrades. Here, you'd either need to be a high-tier member or pay for a higher room category to get an upgrade. Each day, the room is stocked with two bottles of drinking water, a carton of milk, and the usual capsule coffee and tea bags – pretty standard. However, I don't understand why housekeeping moved my belongings. Several times, I returned to find my neck pillow on the floor, clothes I'd hung on the hanger had been moved, and my slippers were in a different spot. While it's not a major issue, it was a bit annoying for someone with OCD. I hope the hotel can pay attention to this aspect. I've included a few breakfast photos. On a side note, the fillet steak at the downstairs restaurant was very tender and worth trying.

The owner was very concise and straight to the point, highlighting all the key information. The hotel is located near the market and has its own backyard that can fit about ten cars. Coles and McDonald's are a twenty-minute walk away, and there's a Chinese restaurant right across the street. It's also very close to the port.

We had the most amazing stay here, all thanks to the incredible hospitality!We arrived at Hobart Airport after a super long and exhausting journey, and we were honestly running on empty. Melissa at the front desk was an absolute lifesaver! She noticed how tired we were and immediately went to work trying to get us an early check-in. Since our room wasn’t quite ready, she safely stored our luggage for us and text us the very second it was clean. That meant the world to us!She also gave us a fantastic, super detailed rundown of all the hotel facilities. To make things even better, our room had a stunning, super beautiful view of the lake. We couldn't take our eyes off it!

Breakfast is good, traditional English breakfast, compared to other big hotels may not be many types, but there should be classic food, and old British favorite marmite. The scenery of the hotel is very good, you can faintly see the sea.

Since we arrived in the early hours of the morning, the hotel was very accommodating. Knowing my wife is pregnant, they allowed us to check in a little early so she could rest properly. Overall, it was good, aside from some noise. However, I think this is due to poor soundproofing, which seems to be a common issue across Australia. Essentially, it's very convenient, with a bus stop and light rail station right downstairs, making it easy to get to different attractions.

I took a public bus from Hobart city and arrived in 10 minutes from the bus stop. Public buses are currently free for a limited time, so I recommend it for those who want to save money. The double bed and shower-toilet were spacious, and I could watch YouTube on the TV. The next morning, I had to go to the airport before the first shuttle bus, so I walked to save money. It was a 30-minute walk pushing a suitcase, but the sidewalks were well-maintained and easy to walk on.

The room was very nice, the boss was very nice, and he also provided a rich breakfast. It is also very convenient to go to various tourist attractions. It's also very close to the city. The overall feeling of staying here is very relaxing!

The room photos on Trip.com were taken when the room was brand new. It clearly is no longer the case now - some staining on the curtains and soft furniture and marks on walls. Overall, for the price, it's still acceptable. Check-in is done at the bar like most similar types of accommodation above a pub. Bedding is exceptionally comfortable - special mention of the supremely comfortable mattress and pillows. 5-star bed. Water pressure in the shower is weak - 60% of what I would have liked. Bottled water and milk in the fridge is a nice touch. Crockery and cutlery provided in the kitchen. You will have to lug your luggage up 1 flight of stairs as there's no lift.
