All good, except I wish the parking was allocated. I struggled to get a decent park at night.

Hotel Grand Chancellor Hobart
The location is right across from the port, so it's great. The room was very clean, the bed was very comfortable. The sound-proof was less than idea. The guest acrossa the hall from our room was drank that night. He spoke loudly for a long time outside his room, and we heard every word.
