霍巴特飯店(Islington Hotel)

Beautiful place. Nice stuff breakfast incredible.

Everything about this place is exceptional. I genuinely believe the service is worthy of a high level worldwide. You’re made to feel so welcome, but it isn’t pretentious. The little details are done so well, to the point where you look anywhere and you’ll likely see something beautiful and intentional. The grounds send you back to the last century and you do not feel like you’re only a 4 minute drive to the heart of Hobart. The view of Mount Wellington. Just everything. This is world class. Thank you so much for having us. David and Jo

We ended our 12 night Tassie holiday with 2 nights at the Islington, as a celebration for a milestone birthday. The good: the Wellington suite is generously proportioned, breakfast was impressive (we had an early departure and the chef kindly prepared an early cooked breakfast for us), the grounds are well kept and the bed was super comfortable. The heated bathroom floor is a good touch. The disappointing: on arrival it was straight to a guest lounge room for ID and payment. We were then guided through the dining area and straight to our room (a more in depth tour, explanation of some details of the hotel, and the offer of a beverage would have been appreciated). Some aspects of the room are starting to look a little worn and in need of attention. The wifi in the room was non-existent (the guest compendium wouldn't load on the in-room iPad). We booked a 'Love Actually at Islington' package which included a 'curated chocolate hamper for two'. After an attempt at a discreet enquiry about the hamper, we returned in the afternoon to find a very sad Easter basket, with a few chocolates that looked like they had been scrounged from the staff fridge (our stay was in late April). Our room had a lovely bath, but no indulgent bath salts /oils on offer, and the towels are on the small side.

We love everything about our experience in Islington Hotel. The interior design, ambiance, lighting, soft music captured all our senses. Every area has an element of escape that tells a story. We especially love reading about the century old history of Islington. The location, view of Mt. Wellington and the garden was gorgeous. We very much appreciate the thoughtfulness and warmth of the hosts. Jacob has given us a tour of the property when we arrive and made sure that all our needs are met. Tea and the sweet treats were a delight. Breakfast was delicious.
