Beautiful old building, but room was a disappointment for the price. Bathroom was clean but very dated probably 1980's. Did not receive text about access or breakfast times but i had trouble with i messages at the time. Breakfast was good and breakfast server was very accommodating when I wanted breakfast early. Bed was very comfortable but light coming through the blind helped me get a bad nights sleep. Being Launceston one would expect a heater in the bathroom but there wasn't one. No information in the room on how to operate the heater or breakfast times etc. Overheard a guest saying heater didn't work until I told them about the switches inside. Overall a bit disappointed at this premium price point.

Beautiful place to stay in Launceston. Room was clean and very well maintained. Morning breakfast was excellent. Launceston is quite hilly and this is right at the top as the name suggests, but very convenient to the city. 5 star

For a top end property, it was disappointing. Tiny bathroom, bed head and blinds not cleaned & full of fluff. Hard to sleep due to too much light from neon sign out front and in hallways. Good breakfast though, that's about it.

the room it self was lovely and the building.Just 2 things we found annoying. The bathroom was very very small when seated on the toilet and when in the shower box.It was ok but thought it could have been a bit bigger. The only thing we were really upset about was the dog over the back barked and barked for hours when the owner must have been out.It was continual.everything else was excellent. we would stay again as it was so clean and roomy the actual room itself all but the bathroom.
