Room clean however, lights either fully on or off, no small lights so one person could sleep whilst another read, would be difficult if kids travelling also. Generally needs updating, carpeting worn, no lift, limited menu, bar staff seem to run reception. Bar staff lovely but prob wouldnt use again.

Bruce

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was very clean, the amenities were quite good, but the bed was a bit harder than I Personally like. But that is just me. The hotel is very easy to access from any direction. It is , afterall in North Hobart, but is really quick to get into the CBD. The hotel does have a little bit of age showing, but the smell of fresh paint, and tile work underway at the entrance would tell a traveler that things are being looked after. All the staff I encountered were quite nice and, as Tasmanians, great folks, and easy to interact with. I WILL be coming back next time I am in Hobart. By the way, the food was very good too.
