Opt for a Room with a View

Several guests recommended choosing a room with a view, as it offers lovely vistas of Launceston and provides a quiet and comfortable stay.

Consider the Location for Easy Access

The hotel's central location near City Park and other attractions makes it convenient for exploring the city on foot, but be prepared for a steep walk back to the hotel.

Take Advantage of the Self-Check-in Process
