A bit old and needing repairs but still ok, the beds are ok which is the most important thing

Large common areas. Really nice backpackers environment!

There was a staff member named James who was very friendly. Thank you very much for taking care of him many times.

Common areas were filthy, I wouldn't eat off of a single table in the dining area...

Very spacious dorm room, man on reception was friendly and helpful. Toilets cleaned well once a day.

Full of long term travellers who all seem to get up and stomp around/slam doors between 530 and 730!

Amazing value for money

Overall I enjoyed my stay at the arthouse hostel and the location was walkable to attractions and city centre.

Kitchen is a bit small and grubby.

I don't understand all the negative reviews. For the price it was good. Comfy bed. Easy to sleep. Big common areas. Great value for a short stay.

the kitchen could be better.

expected for the price.

There were a few long term stayers who were quite loud (I understand arthouse can't help that) and sound passes through the walls very easily so get some good earplugs. I was on the bottom floor right by the stairs so that didn't help. The kitchen/dining room was gross, the fridges smelt terrible, lots of dirt and old food built up and every table in the dining room was always covered with crumbs.

Staff were friendly and accommodating. Living room area was great, beds were comfy and balconies were cute. Short walk to town and wifi good. Would stay again

Dirty and not quite what was described on the bookings.com website eg refurbished

Good location and cheap

Dated property, could do with a through clean and update facilities. No aircon in dorm

You get what you paid for, fine for a short stay, comfy bed and nice receptionist.

- Uncomfortable beds, can feel virtually all the springs in the mattress - bunk beds did not feel study and you could feel each time someone moved - kitchen and dining room overflowing with trash and because so many people are sharing the space it gets quite dirty

- Friendly & responsive staff who answered my messages via booking.com - Friendly & social guests - Good location - Affordable price - considering bathrooms are shared with many people, they are decently kept

Bit odd long term people in my room.

Kind and helpful staff.

Stayed in November 2023

Kitchen a bit feral.

The staff was lovely. I loved my attic room with lots of space and fresh air. Heaps of storage space and the beds were OK. Linen was clean . The building is old and does need some TLC.

Stayed in November 2023

Kitchen facilities and common room need to upgrade and improve.

Friendly officers.

Stayed in July 2023

Water in the bathroom wasn't warm enough, floors were dirty, bed uncomfortable

Fabulous historic building, sadly not so well maintained inside with pieces of ceiling falling apart, worn off carpets etc. It'd be good to see it renovated. Good location, walking distance from the city centre and queen vic museum

Good value for money, cheap and decent stay on trip around eastern Tasmania

Nothing I loved the whole experience at The Arthouse It was so enjoyable to be in a place with so much character

Love this old building it has so much character I was so impressed with James and how helpful he was I loved the warmth of the room so I could sleep in peace

Kitchen was a disaster, very messy and dirty. Eating lounge same thing.

Amenities, location and services.

Stayed in June 2023

I didn’t have a socket near to my bed so I couldn’t charge my devices during the night. Maybe the room was a bit cold. The cleaning (room and bathrooms) is not the strength point

The building is very cool, old one with high ceiling, squeaking wooden floor and old interiors. I slept in a bedroom with 8 bunks beds, with just two other persons sleeping in it

Stayed in May 2023

Matress wasn’t the best, but for paying $25 per night it was to be expected. Clean however.

Big rooms, easy parking outside and very close to city centre. Great value for money. We were able to lock our bedroom. Appreciated having a key for the locked female only bathroom/shower. Heater was going nice and hot before we arrived so our room was nice and warm. Very considerate thanks, considering the rooms have high ceilings it could have been cold but it definitely wasn’t. Check in and out was very easy. Good communication via imsg with manager.
