"I had a really lovely and comfortable stay here. The staff were incredibly kind, friendly and responsive from the very beginning. They kindly accommodated an early check-in for me, which I really appreciated, and although my circumstances changed and I wasn’t able to make use of it as I had originally planned, their flexibility meant a lot. They were also happy to look after my luggage after check-out, which made everything so much easier. The location is fantastic, very central and convenient...

Top Princes Square Hotel Reviews

Hotel Grand Chancellor Launceston

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful place on the old fashioned way. A proper hotel. Beautiful rooms, bar and restaurant"

Peppers Silo Launceston

10/10 Excellent

"great room, so big - would have been nice if it had had a small table and chairs so you didn't have to sit on the bed. and a small couch would have fit in also! you only get a view of the carpark if you don't pay extra for the silo rooms but the size of the room makes up for it. A bit remote from cafes etc so a small microwave would be nice so you could heat your food or drinks when you finally get them back, but there is a cafe in the park next door, open in the morning- fantastic stay"

Hideaway on George

10/10 Excellent

"Centrally located with onsite parking, friendly and helpful staff and well appointed rooms, this is our favourite place to stay!"

Launceston Central Apartment Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed for seven nights at the Launceston Central Apartment Hotel, which is close to the shopping area and convenient for public transport. Communication with the staff was excellent and both check in and check out went smoothly. The accommodation offered a clean room, a spacious bathroom, a kitchenette, and a laundry facilities. The room temperature worked fine for me, so I did not use air conditioning. I did not drive, so I did not use the car park."
