The old rooms are well set out and my stay was comfortable as I prepared for a visit for a procedure in a private hospital. Close to woolworths and other shop amenities.
Beautiful heritage building in the heart of Hobart with walkable access to the city and nearby restaurants. I stayed after a hiking trip for the jet bath and will absolutely do so again. A good mix of short and long staying guests who often gather in the communal areas for a chat.
The “Art on York” combines old fashioned architecture with well kept, and clean furnishings. The staff are friendly and professional. The location in the CBD is ideal. I would be happy to stay there again.
This is a quirky hotel, I believe it used to be an old bakehouse. Definitely the sort of place I like to stay, but may not be for everyone. My ensuite was pretty narrow, however, it looked like it was in an old part of the original building. Staff very accommodating and friendly. Would stay again, thanks
We really enjoyed our first stay at the Art hotel in Launceston. It was a lovely heritage listed hotel. Room was very clean, and comfy.
Location was great too.
Very clean and lovely stay.
Would recommend and stay again

Older building with character. A bit loud with our room above both reception and facing out into an active courtyard on a night when sleep was critical. Any other night we wouldn't have minded.
Very comfortable bed. Nice staff. Thank you for the onsite parking and free room upgrade.
