"I tend to judge a hotel by its bed, shower pressure and pillows. This hotel ticks the box on all 3 which should be common across all hotels but sadly isn't.
The view from the front rooms is incredible and anyone staying with you should pay the little bit extra to get a view of the harbour.
The shower pressure is fantastic and the towels thick and fluffy. Another expectation that is often not met at other hotels.
The staff are friendly and helpful but not intrusive. Even the young trainee (at the front desk) was a charming young bloke and looked like he loved his job and was proud to be working there. In my experience - good staff are a product of good management so a credit to the Hotel's management team.
The location is perfect and a short walk to everything. So, I will not stay anywhere else in Hobart."
"My second stay at The Tasman within a few weeks, this time in a Heritage Room, prior in a panoramic. The hotel is lovely, centrally located, great breakfast and would recommend. It lacks the final polish expected of a 5 star hotel in terms of, acknowledgement of guest returns, a champagne on arrival, late night room service menu is really light on, etc. All In all, lovely but perhaps lacks final execution."
"We booked 2 x 1 bedroom apartments our was perfect and quite, however our friends in the other apartment had traffic noise issues constantly as it’s on the main drag, our room looked out towards the hospital & other than the occasional helicopter it was very quiet."
