Ok if you don’t find something better
Old hotel, adequate, no bar or restaurant and reception only staffed part of time. Felt safe, but there was not anything (restaurants or pubs near by, but Launceston is not a place to go as it is pretty dead.

Overnight stay, a bit further from the CBD than I thought it was from the website. Travelled to Launceston to purchase a Lobster Pot (they’re supposed to be the best lighter pot you can get). Tamar Marine!

Look further afield!
Not a good experience.
Initially presented with a room that was not what was expected...nor paid for. After some discussion offered a more appropriate room.
The hotel, perhapsonce 'grand' lacked any catering amenities and clearly was not really offering any more than a bed...albeit a most comfortable bed!

We stayed in the Family room which was lovely and spacious. Great location with a short walk to the city centre. Free parking was also great. Astaff were friendly. Had to ask for room to be serviced was the only negative but not a big deal.

Lots of stairs, awful smell of sanitizer, not the cleanest, dusty, unable to open windows and air out. No room service, very limited restaurant menu. Excellent location though. Would not stay here again, sorry

Our room was on the top floor (level 3) and there are no lifts at the facility so we had to lug all of our suitcases up several flights of stairs. This was not made clear at the time of booking, if it was we would have requested the ground floor or looked at alternate accommodation.
Our bedroom window also had a huge ventilation pipe running past which turned out to be from the dinning room kitchen, this ventilation ran throughout all meals times and was extremely noisy still after 10pm when we were trying to sleep.
