We stayed in the Western Penthouse. This property is beautiful, large open plan living and kitchen/dining. The kitchen has everything you need to self-cater and the view out the bay and to Mt Wellington is stunning. Three double bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and separate laundry make it feel like home away from home. Complimentary laundry powder, wash/shampoo/conditioner is supplied. Nothing was a problem, fresh towels were supplied when requested. Thank you for a lovely stay. We definitely recommend staying here. The ferry to downtown Hobart is a short walk to the jetty and the shopping centre at Rosny Park is about a 15 minute walk away.

Shame that the trees have grown up and blocked a lot of the view
