The waterfront cafes, restaurants and studios of the largest city in Tasmania are housed in centuries-old converted warehouses that overlook a harbor bustling with yachts and fishing boats. An active arts scene, vibrant nightlife and leisurely daytime pace add to the city’s charm.

What a brilliant hotel. It’s been beautifully designed. Absolutely by far the best en-suite bathroom I’ve seen in a hotel for many years. Huge room which felt extremely comfortable. And just loved the bed. I wish I could buy one of the robes provided by this hotel. I definitely recommend they sell them.

Vibe Hotel Hobart

Eat. Play. Stay. Repeat. A stay in Hobart is a study in avant-garde culture, Australia’s natural flora and fauna, and Tasmania’s colonial history. Here, time slows, locals take the time to say g’day, and food appears from paddock to plate as if by magic. Of all the hotels in Hobart, none is better placed to deliver an ‘eat’, ‘play’ and ‘stay’ experience than Vibe. Situated in the heart of historical Hobart, this brand-new hotel embraces the Australian lifestyle to the full. The architecturally-designed facade - with its trademark coloured feature fins – has transformed Hobart’s skyline. Hospitality envelops you from the minute you walk in and the smallest of details have been thought of. Inspiration for the contemporary-style hotel rooms, for instance, was taken from the sea and sandstone cliffs on nearby Bruny Island. Inside, all bedroom furniture has been sourced from local Tasmanian oak and lovingly made by local craftsman. Custom lamps will shine the light on a great stay and an even better night’s sleep in a comfy Dreamcatcher bed. Whilst an onsite gym and heated pool ensure you get your fitness fix during those famous Tasmanian winters. For those in town on business, the hotel offers incredible food and state-of-the art conferencing. The State and Federal government departments and some of Hobart's largest corporate premises and hospitals are great locations for business travellers. So too, the heart of the city, Mount Wellington, the Salamanca Markets, and the city’s wine bars and art galleries are close by. And Hobart’s International Airport is just a short drive.

Not always feeling the Vibe

Reviewed By davidskewes

Overall we were not unhappy, the room was clean and the motel in new. Reception staff were great, but dining and drinks staff seemed to be preoccupied doing other things rather than providing service to patrons. It might not bother most people, but I want a sleep timer on the TV, which they don't have.

Lenna of Hobart

Lenna of Hobart is not just a place to rest your head. It’s an experience. Open the door to this 1874-built sandstone mansion and connect with Hobart Town’s story.

About 100 years after the mansion was built, a new accommodation wing opened. Lenna of Hobart, rooms offer harbour, mountain and park views. Rooms offer complimentary wifi, parking, Foxtel, Nespresso machines, opening double glazed windows and are full air-conditioned/heated. Twin bedding options also available.

Nice enough for a meeting

Reviewed By wombatdavid

I attended a meeting here in one of the Level 1 rooms. The room has a traditional feel and had a good quality TV screen for casting images and presentations. Power board provided on the side of the room but not available at tables which could be an issue. The service was great - friendly and plates/tea cups etc cleaned up fast; morning tea tasty - freshly baked cheese scones. The lunch was underwhelming as it was very average sandwiches and a fruit plate.

Maylands Lodge

A merchant “son of a convict”, a legendary architect, an iconic department store and The Salvo’s all play a part in the history of Maylands. Maylands Lodge is a 12 room luxury lodge of the fringe of the city. A secluded urban hideaway. A place where you’re able to escape, relax and rejuvenate. We are small in nature but big in heart. Our passion is people and our purpose is our generosity of spirit.

Family togetherness

Reviewed By Elizabeth O

Booked a studio apartment for 3 adults. Apartment was very spacious but we were disappointed the fold out bed was the only option for the 3rd adult for a 5 night stay. Would look for a 2 bed apartment next time. Reception staff were very efficient and professional and did waive the extra adult charge. The facilities were fabulous, meals delicious and wine selection ample. It's a great location for walking both to Salamanca and the City Centre, it's also really easy to navigate onto major arterial roads for sightseeing further out of town. Would definitely stay here again.
