What guests think

Hobart Tower Motel is a budget-friendly, old-style property where guests commonly praise cleanliness and friendly service, while noting dated decor, very small showers in some bathrooms, occasional noise, and straightforward rooms that prioritise function over frills.

It’s convenient to reach Hobart’s CBD and North Hobart, with free onsite parking and nearby bus stops; some mention guest laundry access and the historic tower’s viewpoint, plus the option to charge an EV from an external outlet. A few guests report limited TV channels, minor maintenance issues, or housekeeping oversights, but overall value for money is a frequent positive. Expect simple, affordable comfort in a handy location.

Had a one-night stay arriving late and leaving early. The property provides basic accommodation but my room did include a microwave and breakfast making facilities, as well as laundry access whilst the reception is open. Price was very affordable. Was happy with my stay.

The tower on sight, part of the history of the motel is a great feature. Access through the reception for a great view of the city and surrounding area.

This was a great find in North Hobart. Loved that I could park for free onsite outside my door. Did not hear anything from the other rooms. Room was dark. Had a great sleep.

Conveniently close to the highway, yet our room was very quiet. Good facilities including laundry. Staff were friendly and helpful. Excellent view if you take the opportunity to climb the narrow stairs to the Tower! I would stay here again

And my partner and I found the end of a joint/blunt along the baseboards of our room, but we werent fussed about that but I know others would be

Tidy & clean rooms very close to North Hobart & Newtown with diverse eating options and good cafes. Shopping centre close by (5 minute drive) and easy driving access to Hobart CBD, Eastern Shore, West & South Hobart, The Docks, Battery Point & Sandy Bay. Room Cleaners were honest, I accidentally dropped money and couldn’t find it in the room (coins must have rolled under the bed). I found the money placed neatly on the side table after returned later in the day after the room was cleaned. I would have no hesitation in staying again.

Room was quiet although you could hear guests in adjacent rooms doing their morning ablutions The decor was dated, doona thin and old and the combined bathroom/toilet was cramped, like being on a cruise ship. The sheets and towels were clean. TV reception was poor..only 7 & sbs. No other channels or streaming It is close to a good shopping area, Coles & Woolies.

Basic motel accommodation. Rooms were a little small, the shower was extremely small, which is a shame considering the size of the bathroom that had 2 separate basins. Rooms were clean, a little noisy close to main road, but met our needs.

The size of the room was fantastic. Loved the chandelier. The pillows were quite thin and hard so would encouraged thicker/fluffier pillows, but next time I would just bring my own. Was warm and clean. Close to town and Elizabeth street.

Wonderful location of motel within easy walking distance to many shops etc. Housekeeping Staff were extremely friendly & helpful. Our room wasn’t as we had expected from what was shown on the website . It was adequate but lighting could’ve been better in the room. Perhaps a light above the mini kitchen area would be good & needs a quieter but more powerful bathroom exhaust fan. Bed was very comfortable. Overall though good value for the price & I’d stay there again because of the location.

It was a little noisy from other people. The heater in the bedroom did not work but since there is no one available after 6pm, no one was able to assist and a text to their "emergency" number resulted in no response at all. There was also only one additional blanket available. Clean and cheap but dated and I probably wouldn't stay here again.

Took away any stress and very much appreciated. Would stay here again!

We chose to stay here based on price, despite not having a car. We didn’t mind the 2.5km walk to the harbour. There are busses going past if required, or for someone with a car its got a big car park. Was very pleasantly surprised at the size of room, that it had bowls etc in kitchen along with jug, microwave and toaster. And very tidy & clean. Will be back.
