Nightcap at Carlyle Hotel
It was comfortable and convenient and ticked all the basic boxes. The ONLY irritation we had was appearance of a noisy belligerent guest after midnight one night. This was not the fault of the hotel of course.

The Tasman, a Luxury Collection Hotel, Hobart
Overall, the Tasman is a beautiful hotel. It is well-located with easy walkability to restaurants/shopping. However, as someone who is a loyal Marriott user, I was a bit disappointed with my overall experience - not only did it seem disorganized - ex. multiple charges were not posted to my account ...
