We booked this hotel on the internet and read some reviews that stated that the rooms were "beautifully appointed". When we arrived at 6.30 pm we picked up a keys for our 2 rooms from a box on the wall outside the main building, these keys were for rooms in the "cottage". These rooms were in a poor state of... more

As I work in the hotel industry myself I do expect the basics for all motels/hotels and apartments. Unfortunately my accommodation didn't even reach that standard and was horrified that I had been led to believe was advertised was a lie. Next time I will go through the travel agency or book a place such as Quest, Best Western, Quality... more

Room was small. It was in need of a good clean. Dirty walls and windows. Bathroom wall had hair and dust scattered around the upper walls. Ceiling fan was very dusty. Toilet was to close to the bench that held the hand basin. A person 6 foot or over would strugle as I did to sit comfortably on the toilet.... more

Our family of 2 adults and 3 teenagers have just spent 2 nights here. We had one of the ground floor units where the cars are all parked outside so car noise is an issue. Also the lights are on all night and the curtains don't block the light. The kitchenette is useful, but there is so little room in... more

We struggled to find a recommended reasonably priced middle range property for one night as we arrived late. We finally settled on this one and it served our purposes. Reservations was quick and easy through a cell phone. I do recommend to call the hotel directly for a much better rate than you will find through any 3rd party web-sites.... more

I just went there on my last holiday wif my family. It's in a good price, to be considered. The room & stuff inside are clean which I think this is the important part to concern about. The only thing is the sink is by the bedside. But we are provided with a microwave and a small fridge. There's a... more

I stayed in this hotel for 6 nights in November 2007 and found it to be clean and comfortable. I was fortunate enough to have room #1, which a front corner room and has a lovely view of the Derwent river around 50 metres away. The facilites are very good, particularly if you are wishing to save a few dollars... more

I stayed here recently on two separate occassions and it was excellent value. I paid only $54 a night (booked directly through the hotel website) and when I was checking out I noticed there were some free vouchers for staying for $49 a night. The hotel is nothing particularly flash but the rooms are bright, clean and cheerful and some... more

The staff at Waterfront were so helpful. We arrived after the reception closed, but our key was left in a safe box,and i had been given instructions where to locate my room. The room was perfect. Beautiful view of Mt wellington, and the small bay with boats on was magical. The room was warm and well appointed. Clean towels were... more

waterfront lodge hobart There is nothing waterfront about this place. Its a misnomer and their photographs showing water from the lobby is somewhat deceiving. You would have to climb over a fence and into someone's private property to get to the water. Our room had a wonderful view of the parking lot. The hotel is not well located; it is... more
