I stayed at Mandalay for 7 nights and enjoyed every moment.

Kathryn and David made me welcome by realising that my plane was late and ensuring I had the basics for a late dinner and breakfast.

I chose to stay Mandalay Garden Studio because I like private, self contained accommodation that either has a view or is in a pleasant, quiet environment.

One of my special interests is the history of places I visit both in Australia and globally.

On this visit to Hobart I had no 'wheels' so needed to be close to public transport links.

Mandalay Garden Studio, with 2 separate sleeping spaces, kitchen, bathroom, private garden space and off street parking is a winner!

It's a just 5 minutes walk from vibrant Salamanca Place with all it's history, restaurants, cafes etc. It is easy to walk into the Hobart CBD , to the Mona Ferry, the Bus Station and the seafood places on Hobart's 4 wharves.

Despite being so near to Salamanca and the CBD, the studio is very quiet especially at night.

Being in Battery Point, Mandalay is an oasis of calm after a day's sightseeing and Kathryn and David, the best of hosts, are there when you need them whilst ensuring your privacy is maintained.

The Studio is small, yet has everything you need for up to 3 people including underfloor heating for chilly nights and comfy beds.

I thoroughly recommend Mandalay Garden Studio to those who want something more than an ordinary modern apartment....Mandalay is extraordinary, unique, one of a kind.
