• Nicole (9/5): Best little B&B for the price - comfy & convenient! - Easy to find. Short walk to Launceston CBD. The room was pretty & the bed comfy with electric blankets. The bathroom was clean & functional. Good water pressure. The breakfast was a lovely continental breakfast with enough of everything to fill you up for the day. Nice views of Launceston from windows at breakfast too! Easy to order Door Dash, etc, if want to eat in too! All good!

• Rosemary and Stephen (9/5): - Old world charm. Rooms were decorated appropriately for the age of the building but with added convenience of ensuite bathroom and TV etc. Staff were friendly and helpful. View from breakfast room was amazing. Parking a bit tricky to get to but plenty of street parking available as back up.

• Kettley (7/5): Good location nicely decorated. - Hazel was very friendly and helpful, a bit disconcerting not having an open reception for info. Had to ask for a table and easy chair, which was easily fixed on request. A small sitting room would be helpful or maybe the dining room open apart from breakfast.

• Peter (8/5): Great value and location - Location Steep stairs
• Liston (10/5): -
• Rhonda (5/5): - We were in our room on the bottom floor which it was great as we did not have to carry our luggage up any floors but the guest in the room above us had the air conditioner on and it was extremely noisy so we had disrupted sleep during the night.
• Dawson (9/5): - room nil
• Maretta (4/5): The breakfast is the only good thing about our stay here. - The breakfast was very nice That we did not receive the information of how to check in. Sat outside in the dark for about an hour being bitten by mosquitos waiting for someone to turn up to let us in. Booking.com were amazingly supportive as I was feeling rather desperate in a new town in the dark, hungry tired and ready for a bed. The hostess was very apologetic. The bed was too short, our feet hung out the end of the bed and our head was lower than our feet, I ended up with a headache. The room did not have a microwave, which I should have noticed when I made the booking.
• Jordan (10/5): - This place was so warm and enjoyable to stay at! We loved the old heritage building which had been maintained well, check was quick easy and friendly, room was big enough, cozy, comfy and clean. There are very few places in this price bracket still doing included breakfast and we enjoyed it so much. Would stay here again next time I'm passing through Launy.
• Sue (2/5): Never Again !! - The bed was comfortable This property is old and warn down and needs major renovations. The room was small with brick walls and felt like a prison cell. The host was there when we arrived and we didnt see anyone again. Not even at check out. No thank you. Breakfast was the bare minimum. There was no interation with staff at all. I couldnt wait to leave !!

• Rosemary and Stephen (7/5): Quaint B&B - Quaint old historical home. Nicely decorated in the era. Clean and nice dining room for Breakfast with a great view of city. 1st stay was up narrow stairs and shower was hard to navigate. No fans or air con for hot days. 2nd stay was better as had a ground floor room and shower was great.
• cathy (8/5): This was one of our favourite stays in Tassie - The hotel was a beautiful old heritage listed building which was modern and clean inside. The breakfast provided was more than enough. The location was excellent, within walking distance to the centre of the city and high up on a hill so you had an impressive view over Launceston. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Was a little cramped in the room when two suitcases were opened with small bathroom.
• Robert (9/5): -
• Pierre (8/5): Très beau petit hôtel. - Déjeuner correct. Bon choix de nourriture Pas de vrai café dommage.

• Marilyn (8/5): -
• Corey (8/5): -
• Ian (7/5): - Location, cleanest & great breakfast Listening to the people upstairs not turning off the shower, toilet flushing & them stomping when walking. Absolutely the flooring wasn't insulated
• Kevin (8/5): Only stayed one night but would definitely return. - Quiet neighbour with plenty of bars and restaurants within walking distance. Old worldly feel to the place, comfy rooms and bed with a simple but pleasant breakfast included! Double bed needs to be upgraded to Queen or King.....I love my wife but we (she) needs her space!!
• David (7/5): - Great location, just a short walk to the city
• Samantha (6/5): It was a comfortable and pleasant stay, thank you. - The location was good, the room was large, the bathroom was clean. We would have liked to eat in the night of our stay, but the dining room was locked. The lack of a microwave in the room meant we had no choice but to eat out.
• Melinda (5/5): - Convenient. Simple breakfast Lack of any check in details. Room smaller than expected. Could hear the snorer in the room above
• John (8/5): The young lady working there was so welcoming and friendly. - The breakfast was better than I expected, refreshing. The bed in our room was to small and not comfortable, plus the rooms could do with fans. The steep hill walking up. Huh.

• Vickee (9/5): Wonderful experience to stay in a well appointed historic building. - Loved staying in a historic building. Conversation to a BnB was sympathetic to the era.the continental breakfast was well presented and the china used was in keeping with the era. Convenient to main town centre. Limited off street parking. No fans in the room but would image that this would not be a problem for most of the year. We were very lucky to have some warm days but window did open so worked out ok!

Staff members absent after check in. Few parking places on property, had to park in street. Room had several types of light pollution which made it difficult to sleep. Lights everywhere and our room was near the front door with light on all night; the roller blind did not completely cover the edges. Just not comfortable.
• Nikki (10/5): -
• Jennifer (9/5): Suited my purpose and comfortable. - The offer of secure luggage storage was not accurate. Any other guest could access the luggage where it was situated.

• Len (8/5): Very pleasant. Lovely house staff ,Rachel . - An olde worked Dining room with modern decoration & choices of food good. If we opened a door to the verandah would an alarm sound? Would like to know more about its history as a school. My husband felt the bed was soft. Did the bathroom have a hairdryer? The bathroom fan is very cold & isn’t be separated from the light switch. Jug switch light flicks On/off. Maybe the plug /fit.

• Jane (6/5): - Rooms were very clean Breakfast was very poor...in a beautiful place like Tasmania there should have been organic fruit sliced up and organic juices...instead there was home brand Coles orange and apple juice along with home brand peaches and two fruits..also with Coles bread...if you are looking to stay in a place for a nice breakfast this is not for you...
• Tingxuan (10/5): - so nice staff
• Joanne (9/5): Lovely views. Worth the walk - Lovely old building with modern amenities. It is a big walk up the hill!
• Eva (8/5): Nice time away in Launceston - Nice, family run hotel with good value for money. It is a bit of an older building up on a hill which means that it's usually quite quiet.
