    Pros +

    • Location was good as it was close to town. Beds were very clean. Included breakfast was a great bonus.
    • Location was perfect - close to city centre. Bed was super comfortable. The room was very clean and having access to a car park was handy. The included continental breakfast was very nice.
    • Good location, Plenty of parking, clean and good bed

    Cons -

    • There was only one sink, that too in toilet. So that was the only place to drink water and wash hands etc. It was quite hot in the provided 2nd room, the AC was not effective. 2nd night AC didn't work. Staff girl was advised next morning, they took it very casually, no sorries etc.
    • Bit tired an old building with old building issues
    • It was a bit cold and we couldn't figure out how to turn on the heat. The walls are painted cinder block, so it was chilly.

    The room came with a good continental breakfast (lots of fresh fruit and good coffee), and you could upgrade to a cooked breakfast. Also, the room had the most amazing shower - best water pressure on the planet!! The beds were comfy, too. The location was perfect - we didn't need to drive at all. We could walk to Cataract Gorge, local museums, and loads of cafes and restaurants. The staff was very nice and accommodating, and everything was quite clean.

    It was a bit cold and we couldn't figure out how to turn on the heat. The walls are painted cinder block, so it was chilly.

    8TrevorPosted on: 11-15-2025

    room was good cold breakfast but had option to buy hot good location free parking on site the room was clean

    bed could have been a bit better

    10PaulPosted on: 11-7-2025

    breakfast was excellent, good punctual service. High quality food and very welcoming.

    Nothing. All was good.

    10VivianPosted on: 10-12-2025

    Breakfast was freshly prepared eg: fruit and the variety was great , cater for my needs. Good coffee with continental breakfast. Not just instant. There was other options for breakfast as in hot breakfast for additional cost however the breakfast available complimentary provide more than ampule choices. Staff were fantastic, exceptional comes to mind. Engaging and welcoming. Room was great clean and fresh smelling. Super comfy bed. Reasonably priced for what I received. Off street parking was a bonus. Location was so convenient meet my locational needs, great base to move around the area with and allowed me to achieve what I need to during my stay. I would recommend this accommodation. FANTASTI JOB TEAM... I will certainly be recommending you to others and will stay again when I come back in the coming months.

    Nothing I did not like.

    Good location and friendly staff, breakfast was decent

    Shower was leaking, room towards the street was noisy (I was able to hear the traffic)

    9SherrylPosted on: 9-17-2025

    Very clean rooms. Great location. Friendly staff. Excellent continental breakfast.

    8Colin &. W.Posted on: 9-17-2025

    Great view of Launceston from our room, staff were very attentive. Free continental breakfast however, free hot breakfast if you book direct. I would have expacted a free hot breakfast being Genius3 but that wasent the case. Very convenient to Launceston CBD only a 10 minute walk. Older syle historic motel however, well maintanied, free onsite parking.

    All good.

    10PaulPosted on: 9-15-2025

    I chose the property because of the location which was perfect for what I had to do. The room and bathroom were impeccable. The variety of choice at breakfast was exceptional. Tim, the owner, was the perfect host and whenever I am in Launceston again, I shall stay at this hotel.

    1Yu C.Posted on: 9-1-2025

    Room is alright

    Said breakfast was included but wasn’t and the staff was very extreme two faces.

    9LindaPosted on: 8-23-2025

    Great location and breakfast was great plenty of fruit. Staff friendly

    8KhamisahPosted on: 8-8-2025

    The location very convenient. Is at the city area & walking distance to shopping area too.

    8GerardPosted on: 6-1-2025

    Close to city. Bloke at check in was friendly. Bit outdated, felt cheap.

    Nothing really, you get what you pay for.

    7StephenPosted on: 5-1-2025

    Good

    Shower and toilet noises from other rooms. Older style building so soundproofing not as good

    7JamesPosted on: 4-30-2025

    location, staff, car parking, room size

    room felt a little dated; breakfast choice was limited without paying the supplement

    9CathyPosted on: 4-29-2025

    Nice clean comfortable room.

    No available ice or ice tray in the freezer.

    This place was advertised as a 4-star hotel on Booking.com, but in reality, it's more like a basic motel. The building, room, and bathroom are all quite dated, and the hot water is difficult to adjust.We stayed for four nights. On one of the days, our towels weren't refreshed. On the public holiday, the room wasn't cleaned at all. If I had booked an Airbnb, I would understand this level of service—but again, this was advertised as a 4-star hotel. It feels like a scam. To make things worse, we had to wash our own dishes daily because the cleaner didn’t bother to do it. I’m usually a generous reviewer, but having stayed in many hotels across Australia and around the world, this is by far the worst "hotel" experience I've had.

    8RhiannonPosted on: 4-27-2025

    They accommodated an early check in which was appreciated. The accomodation is good value for money. Nothing fancy, but for what you pay absolutely on point.

    We couldn’t get parking at night, the car park was full so we had to park on the street. And it was hard to get through to someone on reception by phone or messages through booking.com
