Traveller reviews
Ari Pesce “Superb”
15 Jan 2026
Very cheap and the facilities are very comfortable. The staff was very friendly and in general the place is relaxed and peaceful.
Irene “Good”
15 Jan 2026
Convenient location. Really helpful and proactive communication from staff, to ensure that I understood my booking. I had realistic expectations as I was looking for cheap accommodation for my family for one night before boarding the Spirit of Tasmania. It was basic but met our needs. There's a mixture of hotel and dorm/backpacker style rooms, with shared kitchen and common area. The beds were comfortable, and while I was a bit worried it might be noisy, it was quiet. It was an easy stay. I did try to avoid the creaky floorboards when people were sleeping, but it gave the place character!
EUN WHA “Best place for Spirit of Tasmania trip”

Kind staff and common cooking area Just the opposite to Sprit of Tasmania access
Emily “Clean, comfortable, convenient”
13 Jan 2026
Room was spacious and super clean, very comfortable beds and excellent facilities provided. The whole family slept very well which made for a great start to our Tassie holiday. We didn’t dine at the pub because we got in late and the kids were tired, but very convenient to have meals available onsite. Very short drive off the ferry and Maccas was a couple of blocks down for an easy brekkie. I wasn’t sure how family friendly it would be and there were quite a few backpackers but they were all quiet considerate guests.
