Wonderful service in all areas of the facility. Dinner menu a pleasant surprise with tasty choices. Breakfast is adequate and missing any variety when staying more than a couple nights. The lack of a sink to wash the provided dishes and a fridge, which required my defrosting, as well as poorly sealed room entry doors cost this wonderful hotel a star on rooms. Regardless, I will be back:)

Room was spacious and clean. Great value. Beds are so comfy. Modern bathroom with double sink and walk-in shower. Even includes a microwave and a spectacular view of the courtyard. Breakfast was included and ample parking available. Heat pump was quiet and efficient. Big tv with good reception. Ai the receptionist was friendly and quick and even gave us a later checkout. We will definitely return to stay here whenever we come down to Hobart.

Wonderfully friendly and efficient check in staff. The Manor room was spacious, spotless and very comfortable. The bathroom was huge! Location is great just a short drive to the city. Carpark spaces a plenty. Rates very reasonable. Definitely recommend 👌

Good but not overly great. Amazing location and rooms are very spacious. However, the room was only superficially cleaned and breakfast was very disappointing.
