The location of the hotel was great and our room was clean. We liked the option of not having to have daily cleaning service to our room. The staff were all very accommodating and friendly.
Breakfaat wasn't free but was fine.
Not a good view from the small balcony.
Staff were excellent and very helpful.
Car parking was very easy considering we had a tank!!
Our stay at the Best Western was wonderful and perfect for a family of 5....we had two separate rooms (a Family Suite) and it was brilliant! The beds were very comfortable and we all slept very well after long days out driving and sightseeing! The bathroom and entire suite were very clean and tidy and were great for our needs. We will certainly stay again when we next visit Hobart!
Nice staff at check in. Very comfortable bed. Terrible musty smell in reception foyer. Truck delivering cars to Budget across the road woke us up at 1:15am, not hotels fault but might want to speak to them about this.

Very clean hotel, check in was fast and efficient.
Great location, within walking distance to shops, cafes, restaurants etc.
Bed was a little too soft and not very comfortable.
Car parking is very squishy and not enough space.
Breakfast was great,lots of options.
