This hotel is on a busy corner so depending on the room you have, it can be noisy. The reception staff is there for limited hours. It is a 10 minute walk into center of Launceston from the hotel.

Absolutely no staff. Upon check out the cleaners watched me struggle up the steps with my bag. Bathroom was the size of a broom closet. Mimi bar lacked variety or imagination. Breakfast on offer was $15 for a bowl of cereal a d an OJ. I bought cereal and oj at Woolies for have that but had to buy my own bowl and cutlery. NOT a boutique hotel just because you hang some art on the wall. Totally missed the mark for extra touches.

Our loft level room was not large but very comfortable, clean and quiet. It faced the courtyard and also provided an unexpectedly excellent view of the New Year’s Eve fireworks! The building is older but beautifully restored with lots of artwork in the lounge area and hallways. There is no lift and lots of stairs. Book a ground level room if you need one. Great location , about a 5 minute walk to Royal park and not much further to Cataract Gorge. There are lots of restaurants and grocery stores in walking distance. I would stay again.
