8/10 Very good

Nice accommodation, very clean and comfortable. You do need to be fit to conquer the steps from car park to room.

10/10 Exceptional

A great location, a gorgeous old building, close to the heart of Launceston. Great restaurants and parks close by, with on site parking, it all made for a lovely stay. A warm welcome from the staff and a lovely big room overlooking the park and river in the distance made for a most enjoyable stay.

A Charming Step Back in Time Staying at this historical gem near Launceston’s CBD feels like stepping into another era, with its beautifully preserved architecture and timeless charm. The hotel captures the spirit of yesteryear, yet it doesn’t compromise on comfort—clean, modern bathrooms are a refreshing contrast to the vintage atmosphere. The staff here are incredibly friendly and welcoming, always ready to share local tips or ensure your stay is perfect. The location is ideal, especially if you’re a fan of a good workout. Nestled near hilly streets, it’s perfect for early risers looking to wake up their calf muscles while exploring the area. Whether you’re a history enthusiast or just someone who appreciates a unique stay, this hotel offers the perfect balance of old-world charm and modern convenience. Highly recommend!

Very good value for money for such a tranquil and beautiful place with very spacious room. Parking our Hilux was a bit challenging, but it didn’t take away from the overall charm of the experience. Highly recommended.

Easy and efficient check-in. Room was very clean and spacious with well-renovated bathroom. Loved the high ceiling. Some corridor noise with guests coming in and out the front door. Convenient walking distance to shops, restaurants and City Park.

Waratah on York is one of my favourite places to stay in Launceston. Beautiful, large rooms, comfortable beds, sensational showers & wonderful staff. Close enough to walk everywhere - just be warned, it is on a hill!
