Luxury Hotels & Resorts in Tamar Valley from AU$129

For luxury hotels in the Tamar Valley, the best areas to stay are generally around Launceston and along the Tamar River, particularly in districts like Rosevears or Grindelwald.


Launceston, as the region's largest city, offers a selection of upscale accommodations, often with views of the city or the Tamar River. Properties here provide easy access to dining, shopping, and landmarks such as Cataract Gorge. It's a convenient base for exploring the wider Tamar Valley wine region while still enjoying city amenities.


Couples looking for a refined and relaxing retreat will find Rosevears or Grindelwald particularly appealing. Rosevears, situated directly on the Tamar River, offers hotels with stunning river views, often boasting amenities like fine dining restaurants and access to vineyards. Grindelwald, a unique Swiss-inspired village, provides a distinctive experience with luxury accommodation options and activities like golf and lake activities, all within a picturesque setting.

The Tamar Valley offers a range of luxury activities and experiences, with wine tasting, gourmet dining, and scenic cruising being particularly popular.


For those interested in wine, a private tour of the valley's premium vineyards is a must. You can arrange exclusive access to cellars for guided tastings of award-winning cool-climate wines, often accompanied by discussions with the winemakers themselves. Many vineyards, particularly those along the West Tamar Highway such as Josef Chromy Wines or Tamar Ridge Estate, offer sophisticated tasting rooms and picturesque views.


Gourmet dining is another highlight. Several wineries feature restaurants that focus on local, seasonal produce, offering multi-course degustation menus paired with their own wines. Beyond the wineries, you'll find high-end restaurants in Launceston, the valley's main city, which provide a refined dining experience with a focus on Tasmanian ingredients. A reservation at a restaurant with a view of the Tamar River or the city lights can make for a memorable evening.


Private river cruises on the Tamar River offer a relaxed and exclusive way to see the valley. You can charter a small boat for a personalised journey, often including gourmet platters and local wines, while taking in the natural beauty and spotting local wildlife. These cruises can range from a few hours to a full day, offering a different perspective of the vineyards and riverside estates.


Couples looking for a romantic escape will find these activities particularly appealing.
