"A COmfortable and economical motel close to Hobart CBD. Places like this are becoming harder to find. Cheap, handy site, car at door, clean and comfy -- a good balance of assets."

"Room had a musty smell. Extremely bright in the room from the lights shining in from the carpark & the sun in the morning (so pack an eye mask). Walls are thin - can hear your neighbours & cars.
There wasn’t any toilet paper in the room & there was no housekeeping so I had to go buy some. Bed was relatively comfortable & shower good - which is all I really needed.
15 min walk to Salamanca square. So decent location if weather is good."

"Cheap and cheerful, very eclectic (which suits me). The staff were lovely and helpful. Microwave in the room was great so we could make good coffees in the morning."

Nestled beneath Mount Wellington, Hobart's waterfront buzzes with MONA museum visits and Saturday Salamanca Market browsing for Tasmanian crafts. Climb historic Battery Point's Kelly Steps before taking a ferry to Port Arthur, where Australia's convict heritage comes alive through preserved sandstone buildings.
We were given an early check in, the room was good except the safe did not work.Exceptional service by the Reception lady Erica who was most helpful and caring. The Motel in Sandy bay was in a great position opposite the water and an easy drive to the city. Would recommend highly.

Rooms are spacious, quiet and private, but just upside you door is every kind of convenience be it supermarket, chemist or eatery. ATM's within the block. The red double decker tour bus even picks up just two blocks up the Main Street. You could walk to Salamanca. The staff clean the rooms every day, always plenty of toilet paper, towels and extra pillows.
Would stay here again without hesitation.

Kingston is about 10km from Hobart, however the hotel is just off the highway so it’s about 15mins drive to Hobart city. There’s supermarkets and restaurants on the other side of the road so very convenient. There’s also a beach in the area.
The room is spacious with all amenities like kettle and cups with plates to make tea and full toiletries in the bathroom. Car parking is available and lovely staff. I would definitely stay here again.
