Was a bit wary about staying after the last few reviews but found I had nothing to worry about, had a fantastic stay ended up staying an extra night! Positive - location, spacious rooms, nice decor, can check out from your room instead of going back to Somerset on Pier (where you check in), studio rooms have a great view... More

At first I was disappointed to find out that what appeared to be a queen size bed was just two single beds put together. I was even more disappointed when I saw how deep the mattress was sinking down in the middle. It was really uncomfortable, it felt like a bath-tub. I was then shocked when I the next morning... More

We stayed in a two bed apartment (102) it was spacious and clean. Had everything we needed travelling with our 4 year old son (washer, dryer, fridge etc.) As some of the other reviews stated TV's are old and beds are 2 singles zipped together although I never found it uncomfortable. Location is great, everything on our doorstep. I would... More

Room 106- Huge! Brilliant view over the water. Yes there was a car park out front (which did not concern me at all) but then a fantastic water view- ocean liner in full view to complete the picture. Balcony, lounge, kitchen, deep spa bath and a lot of space. This apartment was a very welcome surprise and in a brilliant... More

We stayed here for two nights. This is not the best hotel we've stayed at, yet it isn't the worst. The location is the best aspect of Somerset on Salamanca. You,re literally at the doorstep of Salamanca place. Many reviews are saying that this hotel is expensive for what you get, but you need to take into account that it's... More

We chose this place over Somerset on the Pier after reading reviews about the potential noise we might experience at night. However, I think it would have been better than what we got at this place. No issues with checking in at a separate location and having to park and bring our own bags in (as this was already mentioned... More

This is a great place in a fantastic location in Hobart Tasmania. You are right on the door step of Salamanca where you have access to wonderful eateries, a Tasmanian icon in the Salamanca Saturday market and easy access to the whole harbor precinct of Hobart.

We stayed at this property a number of times in the past. This time we had problems with booking the accommodation - had to be transferred to the Global booking office, which is in Manila. People there don't have a clue what they are talking about when it comes to the Salamanca property, which makes booking difficult. When we finally... More
