Riverview at Ross

Ross is a charming, small, historic town. It gets plenty of tourists, but is well worthwhile visiting, and the Riverview at Ross motel is a very good place to stay. In contrast to much of the town, it is quite modern, but what it lacks in antique charm it makes up in comfort, cleanliness and quiet. It is on a quiet back street, looking out over the countryside, and only a few minutes walk from the famous convict-built stone bridge. The receptionist was very helpful and booked us a table for dinner at the local pub; good pub food and very busy. Very pleasant stay.

What a beautiful spot to stay We had the king bed in our room. Most comfortable bed inTassie. Very clean, friendly host, very very peaceful. Great spot for trout fishing, close to the hotel just a beautiful spot to unwind Also has a caravan park with 3 units. Emily and your staff we would love to thank you for everything. We will be back again in the near future.

The Motel Staff communicated well, were friendly, and went the extra mile. Bedding was crisp and comfortable. Information about the area was abundant and well presented. Very nicely furnished. Heat pumps were on when we arrived, but found we needed to turn them up to 'Strong' mode, and then the rooms heated very quickly and we could turn them down again. Electric blankets on all beds. Very clean. Conveniently close to the highway between Hobart and Launceston, and not too far from roads Eastward and Westward. Adequate shops nearby, and we're looking forward to having breakfast at a local bakery in this beautiful historic town. Only disappointment was that cooking facilities was limited to kettle, microwave, fridge, crockery and cutlery. In most situations, this is enough to make do, and it didn't detract from our stay, we just thought there would be a kitchen. I also thought there would be a living room of sorts (or separate kitchen). With 2 very spacious bedrooms, one including table and chairs, and the other a large desk area, this was no problem at all but if I had an active young child I might want more space, or I might be happy to make do. Young children are clearly catered for here with plastic bowls etc and a very small chair. Parking is just a couple meters from the front door, with mostly level ground, concrete path. Nice chairs out front. Staff offered to book us in for a meal at Campbelltown Hotel, less than 10 minutes up the road. The service there was better than we've seen for a long time. The food was also exceptional, and my young folk really enjoyed themselves. We paid just over $100 for reduced portion mains each, a drink each and dessert each. For a stopover to avoid finishing our trip home tired in the dark, we were well blessed by staying here. Thanks guys!

Friendly hosts, welcoming and very safe community. A perfect little town with a perfect little place to stay. Peter and Helen made us feel very welcome, as did the local residents of Ross. Exceptionally clean and comfortable with incredible sunsets right at the entrance to the motel. We will be back..
