My family rented two rooms at Quest in May at very short notice and have to say it was clean, the location was fantastic (walking distance to Salamnca and waterfront area of Hobart) and the service from staff was excellent. The rooms aren't give star, typical Quest units, and maybe a little bit dated... but had everything you needed and... More

The room size was fantastic. The beds were extremely comfortable. Staff went beyond expectations, they were so helpful and curteous, made us feel very welcome and at home. Our stay was extremely comfortable, we couldn't have asked for more.

A well priced serviced apartment hotel across the road from the ferry to MONA and a short walk to Salamanca Place. It has no onsite catering but offers room service type delivery from local restaurants. My only criticism is a world wide problem for me. Why oh why don't hotels provide proper reading lamps? With only one small window the... More

The location is near to Salamanca and 5 minutes drive to nearby restaurants. Housekeeping is not thorough-toilet bowl not cleaned after first nite. The single Bed matteresses were a bit too soft Music fr pub could be heard so u need ear plugs if u are a light sleeper. Overall, still a good choice to stay

Dear Mayccube Thank you for your feedback, we encourage all types of feedback as we find it a great tool for staff training. Indeed, some nights the music from "the pub"can be heard, however, this is something that we are wroking closely with them to combat. Our triple glazing on the windows also alleviates some of the noise. Kind regards... More

Good location just metres from the water and close to Salamanca but lacks character for mine. If you can get a good price this place is clean and has comfortable beds but you have to go around the corner for breakfast and although they have charge back, its a bit of a hassle.Better than average but I couldn't give it...

OK, so it's location close to waterfront and Salamanca is certainly going for it, but this small, basic and slightly depresing little place is up an ugly laneway street. This also means that the rowdy university student pub opposite, that rocks loudly in later part of week, makes it tough to get a quiet night. Room was basic, on the... More

This is a simple, clean, basic apartment hotel. It's close to Salamanca Markets and the Pier restaurants, yet very quiet in the rooms. The staff were friendly and very helpful. And there's a power point next to the bed for your mobile - rare.

Just off the waterfront. Reasonability priced, clean room and friendly, helpful staff. Kitchen with stove, oven, micro and fridge. Walking distance to to the CBD and many restaurants and pubs. Close to Salamanca and its old buildings. Walk through Battery point to look at restored period housing.
