Little Halcyon | City Comfort & Parking
Summary:
“Little Halcyon,” a charming 1930s home just moments from the CBD, Salamanca, Battery Point and the Casino. Enjoy stunning Kunanyi/Mt Wellington views while being only a short walk to cafés, a supermarket, wine shop, restaurants, pharmacy and parks. With parking for 2 cars, free street parking, and professionally laundered hotel-quality linen, it’s the perfect Hobart retreat for business or leisure.
The Space:
"Little Halcyon" has many lovely period features, and we have filled it with carefully collected vintage pieces in a nod to its history and an eye to a sustainable future. As you step into the house, the mellow ambience will embrace you. Guests who love cooking and are tempted by the wonderful array of fresh and sometimes uniquely Tasmanian produce available at the many markets and providores around Hobart will find a real cook's kitchen made for entertaining with quality cookware, implements and appliances. There are herbs like bay, mint, lemon verbena, rosemary and thyme growing around the front and back gardens for your use in meals or drinks. There is a gourmet supermarket across the road which opens at 7am. Relax on the tranquil long back porch, surrounded by greenery while streaming your favourite playlists.
During their stay, guests will exclusively and privately have full access to the house

This was a great historic house to stay in. Clean, comfortable, spacious, well-equipped. The back patio is very private. We enjoyed sitting outside. Great location. Easy walk into CDC to the harbour and museum, etc. We would highly recommend this accommodation.
Location was perfect, access to Salamanca Fresh marketplace was great. 10 minute walk into CBD, Salamanca Place and wharf. Accomodation was clean and beds were comfortable. Well stocked kitchen allowed us to cook a full Christmas dinner. Andrew and Lisa were freat hosts, they have set the house up to be a real home away from home and have thought of just about everything to male you feel at home.
Our family of 4 adults stayed in this beautifully restored home 1930s home for 3 nights. It is in a good location and is a 20 min walk down to Salamanca. It is close to 2 great grocery/ fruit shops and we enjoyed the Japanese restaurant 2 mins away. The home is very comfortable and lovely to be in. Some firewood could be provided for the fireplace in the lounge.
