- Peter (10/5): - Great friendly staff
- Derek (10/5): - Great property, clean and quiet room, easy parking area.
- Mark (10/5): - Was really pleasantly surprised at how good the room was for a pub room. The bathroom was very modern, the room was comfortable and the staff were amazing. Would definitely stay again. My only one thing was there was what sounded like a fan that ran outside somewhere overnight so for light sleepers it may irriate light sleepers, but it didn't bother me.
- craig (10/5): - Great staff, meals were great recommend it
- Anthony (10/5): - For our first experience staying there we were very impressed. Loved our meal there as well. Staff very efficient and friendly. So loved all the healthy plants growing inside and outside. Would definitely recommend to our friends and will come again.
- Brad (10/5): - Wonderful and convenient
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Excellent location, attached to a nice pub. Convenient walking distance to CBD. Rooms are small but well-equipped with amenities. Mattresses are in a terrible condition though and could do with replacement.
- A (8/5): - Good for couple, not family. Very good location. Clean rooms but one of our rooms (the biggest one) got smoke smell. Put the room make up on the handle but just provided new towels, didn’t tidy up. Shower is too high and water splashed out since no door or curtain for the shower area.
- Sharla (10/5): - Clean, convenient and affordable. Parking and dining on the premises.
- Rod (10/5): - Great central location. The Dr’s staff were friendly and helpful and I enjoyed a great meal from the bistro. Highly recommended. Rod
- Warren (8/5): - Great location for easy road access and eating Room was small but comfortable, excellent hot shower Quite noisy as right on a busy road and the pub below can get noisy if busy
- Richard (8/5): - Nice newly renovated and clean, walking distance to Salamanca
- Nicole (6/5): - I liked the location for easy access, free parking, security to the accommodation and the rainfall shower but that was about it. The room tiny. The ventilation didnt work in the shower. The fan was weak and covered in dust. The accommodation area had a smell to it. I could continually hear a split system or similar right outside our small window. The ladies at the restaurant were so unwelcoming on 2 occasions we tried to enter for a drink.
- Criselle Mikka (8/5): - Accomodating staff
- Hans (10/5): - I loved the area, the views and everything was so close and accessible, and staff were helpful and everyone was friendly, great place,people, and food was fantastic, looking forward to staying there again.
- Prabath (6/5): - The hotel’s location was fantastic—close to everything we needed, which made getting around very convenient. However, I stayed with 2 kids and another adult, and we found the room to be far too small. With two beds, there was barely any space to move around, making it feel quite cramped. On the bright side, the facilities were decent and met our basic needs. If you’re traveling as a family, consider opting two rooms or a different property altogether.
- Teresa (10/5): - Easy check in Friendly staff Very clean
- Simon (10/5): Always good - Always good and convenient for parking, restaurants and close to the city.
- Neeti (10/5): - The property is clean, easy to reach and surrounding is quite. Overall, my stay was comfortable.
- Narelle (10/5): - Lovely polite people. Food was yummy! Room was a great size and very comfortable. Would highly recommend.
- Jim (10/5): - Beautifully upgraded King deluxe room. Very pleasant stay
- Mark (10/5): - Wared
- Vanessa (8/5): - Great renovated pub!
- Mark Jeffrey (10/5): - We loved our stay , friendly staff , spacious rooms , and lovely food at the pub
- Ken (10/5): - Close to the transport and shops
- Carole (10/5): - Although compact, the room was very comfortable and quiet. The only thing I didn’t like was the step down when leaving the bathroom. It was a bit unexpected.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Decent location, not a long walk from the CBD or Salamanca Place, with supermarkets and other shops close by if you need to buy anything. The restaurant downstairs was also great and we had an excellent meal there. The mini fridge in the room was also very handy. Just some complaints, the bed and pillows were too soft for our liking. As for the bathroom, the sink tap was wobbly (almost like it was about to come off) and we didn't really like the rainfall shower head. Everything else worked just fine though and we had an overall pleasant stay.
- Shonand (8/5): - Clean, walking distance to main sites. Pity it was quiet season and so bar shut early
- Sue (10/5): - Was really easy
- Chun Wai Rhodes (10/5): - Very nice
- Simon (10/5): - Excellent value, clean and modern.
- Alan (10/5): - Hotel was clean and tidy. Recently refurbished and very comfortable. Very convenient to Sandy Bay and half hour walk to the city.
- mario (8/5): - Property is getting a freshing up. Nice place to stay has a retaurant pub nice and clean
- Richard (8/5): - Staff are very friendly!
- Curtis (8/5): - Great staff and downstairs bar/restaurant is excellent.
- Anand (6/5): - Good stay... very noisy, bang on the road. It has plus and minus. Very close to all amenities, petrol etc. No microwave or toaster, bit incovinient. We had ac/heating in one room and other room didnt have anything (twin room) Overall, it would be good for light travellers with bar and restaurant attached. It was average for our family due to few points mentioned above. It affected our sleep
- Gabe (10/5): - Very convinient location in Sandy Bay near shops, would come back next time I'm in Hobart!
- Darren (10/5): - It was a good experience, a real pub in a great location. Good people.
- Geoff (6/5): - It was a windowless box, with tired furnishings.
- George (4/5): - I didn’t like the beds, which one assumes would be the essential item of an overnight stay.
- Piers (10/5): - Neat and tidy and very well located. Easy walk to Salamanca. Lots of food options nearby.
- Denis (10/5): Hobart overnight stay - All good as usual
- Mrs Wendy M (10/5): - Liked the convenience to our needs
- Zane (10/5): - For such a great price, you won't find a better room for an overnight stay in such a great location. Couldn't have been happier. The staff too, were wonderful. Extremely friendly and helpful.

- Tim (10/5): - Great value
- Robert (6/5): - Overall good - parking at back

- Alberto (8/5): - I loved the high drop shower in my room. It felt great!

- GRANT (10/5): - Very friendly staff and great atmosphere
- Jesse (10/5): - Used this place for my home based while doing day trips out of Hobart. Many good restaurants are walkable and a Woolworth’s is one street over. Lastly, I went to bed early every night there and didn’t hear anything with the bar/restaurant downstairs .
- Jeanette (10/5): - Would stay there again
- Norman and (10/5): - Meals and staff at the hotel were superb
- Julia (8/5): - Check in was done in the restaurant and was an easy process. Parking was shared with the restaurant. Manager was friendly and room was nice. A lot of stairs if you have a lot of luggage. Manager did offer to help carry luggage up to our room. Overall, great place to stay.
- SIU LAN (8/5): - Room is very small but very clean. Staff is very helpful. Walkable to sightseeing points.
- Mai Peng (8/5): - We were upgraded to a better room because the room we were booked into had a loose hinge to the door. The facilities in the room is ve ry adequate. The general location of the hotel is good-near shops, had parking and walking distance to the water. But it had a very busy street right in front of the hotel. But for the price of the room- no complaintd
- Marco (10/5): - Very clean, affordable and friendly staff
- Deb (10/5): - Friendly & convenient for us!!
