Looking for a motel?

Both travellers on the road and on a budget rely on motels for convenient stops with reasonable rates. Direct access to parking makes a motel an easy place to catch some sleep after a day of driving. The relatively smaller size of this accommodation type can also help to make check-in quick and easy.

    Beautifully clean, very comfortable bed, great shower, quiet, great location, very convenient laundry, very helpful staff. This motel felt like the Ritz after 12 days on the road in a camper van!! It was just perfect and in a stunning spot with a beautiful beach around the corner. Had everything needed- tea, coffee, bathroom amenities etc. Bottle shop and grocers 2 mins away as well as bistros and take away options. Amazing value for money, spacious room and plenty of space to park our camper. Loved our overnight stay here!

    Motel is centrally located, recently refurbished and excellent value for money. Staff were friendly and housekeeping refreshed rooms daily if required. I had views of both the Derwent and the mountain and found the city so easily accessible from this location with the main highway north and south virtually at my doorstep yet the room was so quiet. Also found the history of this establishment and the climb to the original tower with its 360 degree views of Hobart well worthwhile.

    We were very surprised with the quality of this motel. With undercover free parking and 100% undercover right to our room. A great location with plenty of eateries very close including onsite at the pub and within the complex. There's a Coles Supermarket directly across the road too.
