About this house rental
Coming to Hobart? Don't book a standard hotel! Make your time in Hobart an experience you will remember. Stay in a Circa 1900, fully renovated and re-juvenated townhouse. This will be your home away from home and add to your memories of Old Hobart Town. Within an easy and level stroll to the Hobart CBD or a similar walk to North Hobart restaurants you will certainly be handy to the attractions without being right in the middle of the action.
The townhouse itself retains all the features of the era, with stained timber stairs (yes they are a bit steep but that's the way they built them over 100 years ago), ceiling roses, fireplaces with mantles, sash windows and the most superb polished floorboards you will find. The rear kitchen and conveniences have recently been re-built to add a touch of modern practicality without losing the overall charm of this wonderful building.
Included are quality timber furnishings, all linen, floor rugs, fully equiped kitchen, two queen size beds with side tables and everything to make your stay comfortable. There is a reverse cycle heat pump, panel heater, and portable heaters, just in case the unpredicable Tasmanian weather is new to you.
If you haven't tried short stay accommodation before then why not give it a go. We have many satisfied guests over many years. We offer value for money and the comfort and flexibility of providing a full home away from home. Where you can choose to go out and enjoy the sights and sounds of Hobart or maybe just stay in and chill out.
BEDDING
There are 2 bedrooms, both with queen size beds. There is a port-a-cot and high-chair available upon request. Please let us know if you require these items prior to your stay.
PARKING
Parking is on-street only. There are 1 and 2 hour spots available directly outside the house and there are some all day spots further up Warwick Street as well as the side streets. Parking restrictions only apply during business hours and you will be almost guaranteed to get a spot either outside or within 20 metres of the house.
SECURITY
There is a doorbell camera located at the front door. It actively records audio and video from the house towards Warwick St. There is also a camera actively recording the front porch area.

It was good
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Oct 2024
The house was charming but a bit unpractical for 2 adults and 3 teens. The location was great with walking distance to the center of Hobart which made it possible for the teens to explore by themselves without being dependent on our car. The house was a bit cold (as most houses in Australia).

This is a very nice place for a short stay in Hobart. Located on the transition point from CBD to residential, it's a 10-min walk into downtown, and the Elizabeth St restaurant strip is a short, easy walk, just a couple of small blocks away. Access into the property takes 3 seconds, using a touchpad and 4-digit code. Both QS were very comfy, with light ?woollen doonas on top, but no top flat sheet to fold over. It was nice to have ample room to stow all of our clothing in the generous wardrobes. There were extra blankets available. The physically-challenged may need to take extra care descending from the bedrooms via the narrow staircase with shallow steps. There was ample heating both upstairs and downstairs. The kitchen was very well equipped, although you need to know to manually select 'Micro' on the microwave/convection oven to get it to re-heat drinks etc. We eventually figured it out after thinking it didn't work at all. The bathroom and laundry were both excellent, with plenty of hot water at good pressure. There were plenty of good-quality towels, hand-towels, shower mats and facewashers etc. Weekday mornings see a small but noticeable increase in traffic noise just outside the building, but nothing overly annoying. There is free parking out the front of the property 8 am - 6 pm, with a 1-hour limit on the near-side, and a 2-hr limit on the other side of the road, meaning you'll need to move your car by either 9 or 10 am in the mornings, depending on where you park.
