We stayed here for 13 nights in October while in Hobart for a conference and find it hard to fault this lovely
townhouse.
We were extremely grateful for the lovely welcome pack after a very long day traveling with toddler!
Things we loved:
- Beautifully styled and extremely comfortable bedrooms with lush beds and linen
- Good kitchen, laundry and bathroom making it a home away from home
- Great heater and underfloor heating kept us warm
- Gorgeous sun lit living space. On warmer days we also enjoyed the courtyard
- Location made it easy to access Elizabeth St strip in North Hobart and a quick drive to other places we frequented plenty such as great parks for our toddler, Hill St Grocer and the city/Harbour/ Salamanca by car
A few things to know about this place that did make a difference for us:
- being approx 20m from the Elizabeth St strip and directly across the road from a pub the place gets a lot of noise in the daytime and early in the morning (street sweepers, commercial bins being emptied etc) - with the toddler this made a difference to us resting in the day. We did also get some unwelcome drunkenness etc out front throughout the nights due to the location
- window shutters did not keep much light out in day or night
- Yvonne was extremely accommodating of our need for a cot and high chair for baby however - as mentioned in listing - there are extremely steep stairs (common in lovely old townhouses like this one). As such I wouldn’t recommend for families with young children unless you hire stair gates. We did (from Hire for Baby Hobart) and Yvonne went out of her way to ensure they were installed before our arrival.
