    Great location with friendly owner

    The location is great, 8 min walk to dock and 14 min to city centre. Lots of cafes, restaurants and pubs are around. Quiet at night to have a nice sleep. The room is decorated in Nostalgia styles. Facilities are a bit old, but all work well. The owner is very friendly to accommodate our schedule to check in and out and responds to messages quickly.

    The bed in the small room is not long enough for a tall person and has crack sounds. Carpet needs more cleaning.

    Awesome little apartment in the best part of Hobart. Absolutely lovely!

    Everything, very happy with location, style, comfort, etc, etc.

    Not a dislike, more a minor maintenance issue to make the owner aware of, the bathroom sink doesn’t drain properly, needs to be unblocked.

    Historically significant and full of charm

    This hotel has wonderful historical significance, originally built in 1856 and opened as the third pub in Battery Point. Designed in Georgian arictectural style, beautifully well kept. We stayed in The Wellington apartment, complete with a kitchen, lounge room and bedroom with a beautiful four post bed. The decor has been well thought of and adds to the charm of the hotel. There is free wifi, a comfortable bed, a TV, bathroom (with bathtub) and a cosy kitchen. The location is sensational, within walking distance to multiple food and drink places. Right in the heart of Battery Point, you couldn't ask for a better location. Its only a short stroll down to Salamanca Markets and the waterfront. It was a self checkin, which made arriving incredibly easy. There is one parking spot available for the building but there is ample street parking around the vicinity, otherwise walking distance to most notable sites. Really enjoyed the stay and would definitely stay again.
