I had a great stay at the Hobart Tower Motel. The room was clean, comfortable and had everything needed. I stayed for 6 nights, and was very satisfied. The motel is quite central to town, close to takeaway shops- while being out of the hustle of the city. It is just a short 10 minute drive into the heart of Hobart though too. Staff were always helpful and friendly. I also enjoyed learning about the history of the tower, and getting to go inside. The view from the top was spectacular (see attached picture). I definitely recommend this place to other travellers!
My two week stay at the Argyle Motor Lodge confirmed for me that this establishment is, in my opinion, the best value accomodation in Hobart. The lodge is conveniently located for access to downtown Hobart, the northern suburbs and the major highways. There is a thriving cafe and restaurant culture in Newtown and North Hobart that is very convenient to the lodge. The front of house staff and housekeeping were accomodating and helpful. In reception, Yvette was on point in assisting with bookings, facilities and local knowledge. A first class representative. Selena and her housekeeping team were courteous and efficient in maintaining my suite. Of particular note and not always the case in suites with kitchen facilities, used cutlery is replaced with clean, paper packaged utensils. I highly recommend the Argyle for short or longer term stays.
It was a holiday weekend in Tassie, so most places were very expensive. I only stayed 2 nights. The bed was comfy. The room was big, it was clean. I was in an unrenovated room. I would say basic. I cut my time short and received a full refund, which was very honourable. I ate at the restaurant twice and It was great food and very reasonable prices. The hotel is on top of a pub. So prepare for stairs.
Very nice place, but I expected more of the location.
It seemed to be a busy street, but even in the weekends, everything closed up real early.
There was no staff present during checkout, so I handed the roomkey to the cleaning staff.
