Accommodation in Tasmania

Central City Backpackers
Central City Backpackers, located in the absolute heart of the beautiful city of Hobart, offers clean, comfortable, cheap and cheerful accomodation just around the corner from all the features of Hobart.
The Arthouse Hostel
Tasmania's newest hostel in an 1888 heritage listed building, retaining its italianette character with modern bathrooms and kitchens. Situated on the South Esk river in Launceston, it is only a short walk from the CBD, City Park, the Seaport, cafe's, restaurants, pubs, ... and more. The staff are friendly and helpful, and have plenty of local knowledge.
Launceston Backpackers
Launceston Backpackers has established itself as one of Tasmania's best backpacker hostels. The owners are experienced travellers and know what travellers of today expect. This large 100 year old Federation style home has been beautifully renovated and retains many of its original features. Friendly atmosphere, choice of family, double, twin or single rooms and small dormitories.
Launceston Backpackers has an excellent reputation for its top class facilities and cleanliness.
Star Bar Cafe & Hotel
Enjoying a central city location, this modern, contemporary boutique Hotel/Restaurant offers a high standard in both accommodation and wining/dining.
Elphin Villas
The terra-cotta roofed villas with the warm earthy tones of the Italian countryside nestle amongst terraced gardens of oaks, elms & abundant lavender borders. Here the quietness is evident although it is only a few minutes stroll to the historic city centre and conveniently adjacent to a supermarket and shopping complex.
The Astor Hotel
Situated just two blocks from Hobart’s Central Business District, the Astor is a leisurely walk away from restaurants, shopping centers, airline offices, Museums and Art Gallery, the historic docks and Salamanca Place. Built in 1922 specifically for tourists and travellers, the Astor is an intimate small hotel of twenty rooms and eight shared bathrooms.
Customs House
Heritage listed Waterfront Hotel with a proud history, it has been and still is a common meeting spot for locals and travellers alike. Perhaps the AWARD WINNING seafood restaurant is the attraction. Maybe its the Thirteen beers on tap, or the great live entertainment in the lively front bar. Outside dining right opposite the water! Accommodation is available, All rooms now have ensuite bathrooms.
Mountain View Country Inn
We are situated in the beautiful historic town of Deloraine, midway between Devonport and Launceston. Surrounded by lush farmlands, Deloraine is set under the backdrop of the Great Western Tiers. The Mountain View Country Inn offers excellent, affordable accommodation in their newly renovated motel rooms and good old-fashioned country hospitality.
Silver Ridge Retreat
