Top East Coast Tasmania Hotel Reviews

Port Arthur Motor Inn

Port Arthur Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent
"Good size room and shower room. although the room was "showing it's age" it was very clean and the shower was good. Equipment includes microwave and toaster as well as kettle. Additional crockery/cutlery available on request from restaurant. I had an excellent meal in the restaurant and breakfast was available if required. The bar also serves traditional food. All staff were pleasant and efficient Parking outside of my room was adequate and secure The location adjacent to the Port Arthur historic site is unbelievable, my room actually overlooked the site, there is a private gate into the grounds (you need to buy an entrance ticket on line) To sum up, the buildings are quite old but kept extremely clean and tidy and any small failings are more than made up for by the location."

Panorama Hotel St Helens

Panorama Hotel St Helens

10/10 Excellent
"This small-town hotel deserves an accolade for the elegant and stylish design of its lobby, lounge, hallways and corridors. A big round of applause to the interior designer! Overall, the property is immaculately clean and meticulously tidy all throughout, from the inside and out, and through to the guest rooms. We had a well-appointed room upstairs with a panoramic view of the lagoon and beaches. A word of note - there are no lifts in this hotel so make sure to request your room to be appointed on the ground level if you have mobility issues. Reception staff are accommodating and very considerate to the needs of their guests as we received the same “country-feel” and warm hospitality from check-in to check-out. We will not have second thoughts booking this hotel again in our future travels to St Helens!"

Tandara Motor Inn

10/10 Excellent
"We are giving this small-town motor inn a five star out of five simply because it has an inner soul that made us feel at home despite its ageing condition. We felt positive vibes because of the relaxed and laidback atmosphere, the delicious hot meal of lamb shanks and chicken curry and the friendly and warm staff especially Stephanie who is very attending and caring. The room attendants and our waitress who served us a sumptuous dinner are equally lovable people with a good sense of community spirit. In my personal opinion, this bistro-style accommodation is the authentic gateway to Maria Island!"
