I stayed here through a military reservation. The hotel was awesome. It has an excellent restaurant in the lobby and the rooms are little apartments. I had a washer/dryer, living room, shower room, kitchenette, and a total of 4 rooms. The bar was fully stocked and had chocolate from the Cadbury factory nearby. The room was always kept clean and was in a beautiful part of downtown Hobart. This is excellent for business or a vacation.

    • Disliked — I was on crutches and it is a rather long hotel.

I stayed in a studio apartment, it had kitchenette facilities, ideal if you don,t want to eat out for every meal, and usual Hotel room amenities i,e, flat screen T.V., a VERY comfortable bed and bathroom with enclosed shower recess, washing machine and dryer. The parking is a slight problem as there doesn,t seem to be enough for the size of the Hotel, but the staff were extremely helpful and found me a spot - they had offerred to move their own cars if necessary.
The property is central so easy to walk everywhere, several restaurants in the vicinity, and all amenities were clean. I would definitely stay at this hotel again.
the fact that I only paid $130 per night was a bonus, I had booked using wotif.

Was very much looking forward to staying at the Woostore. The location was great, was easy to find and parking was easy.

We had a 1 bedroom apartment which was a great size and included a little kitchenette which we only used for toast and coffee at breaky time. It also had a small glimpse of the water if you were standing up and standing at a certain angle. The decor was starting to look a little bit daggy but it is completely fine.

The minibar was a bit over priced (as compared to the fountainside hotel), but I guess most hotel minibars are.

The room and bathroom were clean (bathroom had a great hairdryer by the way).

The staff weren't exactly the friendliest mob but they weren't rude either.

It was about a 5min walk (if that) to Consititution Dock and 10mins to Salamanca precinct.

The woolshed was ok, but I preferred the Fountainside Hotel in terms of value for money.

I returned for my second visit to the Woolstore for a 7 day stay. As experienced on our visit last year, the staff were welcoming and friendly, the room clean and offered plenty of amenities. My husband and myself stayed in a 1 bedroom suite - this was even more spacious than last year's apartment.
The amenities were: full kitchen; separate laundry with washer and dryer; kitchen with china, cutlery and cooking utensils etc.; Large lounge area with plenty of seating, dining area, separate toilet and vanity, bathroom with toilet, shower and spa bath.
The property has a restaurant and a bar and offers free car parking for guests.
The Woolstore is only a short walk to the Hobart docks, Salamance Place and the city.
