An urban boutique lodge on the fringe of the city

On the outer part of Hobart city, discover a haven where rest, regeneration, and generosity of spirit come together. This accommodation is boutique in nature and nestled within one of Tasmania's greatest heritage sites. Situated in the Newtown Area, it is close enough for exploration but far enough for escape.


It is located in the outer part of Hobart city in the New Town area. Close enough to the centre to explore, but also far enough to escape and unwind. A merchant "Son of a convict", a legendary architect, an iconic department store and The Salvo's all play a part in the history of the property.

This history is combined with the contemporary in this boutique accommodation. On Fridays and Saturdays, you can also dine here, but you must make a reservation in advance. The restaurant is hyper-seasonal, homegrown, and homemade and supports small local farmers.
