Great stay!

We spent several days there last week. The room was comfortable & clean. Our only comment was the hairdryer was out of another era. We needed some extra towels & the staff quickly got them. The staff were wonderful. Everyone was pleasant & accommodating. We arrived late due to a flight change & were able to arrange to pick up a key using technology. My daughter figured it out. I would have had a bit of a problem! Breakfasts were included & delicious. We needed to have them ready quickly a few times & we arranged this the night before & it was done without a problem. The restaurant is popular in Hobart too and we went for Happy Hour & for dinner one night. It was delicious. The location is great. Our room had a harbor view. Walked right over to the Salamanca Market on Saturday. We’d absolutely go there again.
