We enjoyed our stay. It was convenient as it was a short taxi ride to the waterfront. As our visit was to The wooden boat festival. Staff served us breakfast even though we forgot to order it the night before.

Great view from room - close to North Hobart restaurants/ cafes. Reception busy with only one staff member. Require better directions to rooms given distance from parking area.

Thanks Jo for sharing your feedback. We would like to sincerely apologise for the wait during check-in and that directions to your room were not clear. Being such a large spread out property, clear directions on where to park your car and the best route to your room is vital and further training will be provided to ensure this is the case in the future. We would love to welcome you back again so please do not hesitate to contact the hotel directly for the best deals.
