“Hobart Tower Motel struck me as an interesting place, not just for its proximity to North Hobart's restaurants, but for its glimpses into the past as a renovated residence; the staff clearly cares, even upgrading some guests to larger rooms, as I read. The tower itself, coupled with views of Mount Wellington, brings a unique feel, and I'd say it makes for a practical, affordable base while exploring Hobart.”
