Staff very welcoming and helpful. Had a couple hiccups with the key cards not working but was resolved promptly. Beds very comfortable and rooms clean. Strange not to have a coffee maker in the room but there was a fridge. Quiet area but a night club down the street was rocking the Friday we were there and no ignoring that!! Did not go all night though so still able to log some sleep. Would recommend. We had a family room for 3 adults which was 2 twin beds in a side room and 1 king in the main. Was a perfect arrangement - both sides had windows and balcony too.

Our stay at the Best Western was wonderful and perfect for a family of 5....we had two separate rooms (a Family Suite) and it was brilliant! The beds were very comfortable and we all slept very well after long days out driving and sightseeing! The bathroom and entire suite were very clean and tidy and were great for our needs. We will certainly stay again when we next visit Hobart!

Good accommodation close to the CBD. Parking spaces are a bit tight to get into. Night club near by can be heard in hotel rooms and goes into the early hours. So sleeping is a problem but the meals are great and staff are friendly, polite and helpful.
