Beautiful heritage building in the heart of Hobart with walkable access to the city and nearby restaurants. I stayed after a hiking trip for the jet bath and will absolutely do so again. A good mix of short and long staying guests who often gather in the communal areas for a chat.

Older building with character. A bit loud with our room above both reception and facing out into an active courtyard on a night when sleep was critical. Any other night we wouldn't have minded. Very comfortable bed. Nice staff. Thank you for the onsite parking and free room upgrade.

What a cute hotel in this historic bakery! And so close to the waterfront and parks. Delightful one night stay here with a comfortable bed and charming room. Though the room was a bit small, it was workable during our short visit. It was also great to have onsite parking.

Good Location

Small rooms but a very convenient location for an overnight stay. We didn't receive check in instructions and needed to call an after hours number to get the code to the lockbox. This wasn't really a major inconvenience apart from being on hold for 10 minutes in the rain at 10pm
