Splurge

Or if you feel like spending a little more and really maximising on Hobart’s views of both harbour and mountains...

• Henry Jones Art Hotel A super cool modern hotel set in old warehouse buildings on the waterfront. It features a bar, restaurant and gallery in a quaint old building filled with artwork. Rooms start at around $190 a night, it's worth it though!

• Lenna One of Hobart's most stylish boutique hotels housed in a stunning vine-covered heritage mansion in chic Battery Point. Room specials from about $170 but going much higher.
• Hotel Grand Chancellor A four and a half star hotel attached to the Federation Concert Hall, the home of the Tasmanian Symphony Orchestra. It's all classy and the like, with rooms from about $150-$400 a night.
• The Islington An amazing converted mansion built in 1874, set on ornate garden grounds with views of Mt Wellington. It's interior features open fires, original artwork and antique furniture, and the service is top notch. Room rates can be negotiated, but don't expect them to be cheap at $400 and above a night!
