Had to use bottled water for drinking and brushing teeth. I wouldn't shower as the water as the colour of black tea. The kitchen and bathroom seriously requires upgrading.

The room was neat and tidy, with an excellent view, but it could do with an upgrade. The addition of a table in the living area would have been very handy, along with more places to hang your towel (there was only one towel hook in the bathroom). The location is really handy for Port Arthur, and the staff were friendly. The food at the restaurant was also really good and affordable.

Perfect place for an overnight stay while visiting the Port Arthur heritage site. Staff were friendly on check in and again when we dined at the restaurant for dinner. Food was great too. Rooms are a little older but clean and comfortable.

Friendly helpful staff and very trad menu in keeping with the style of the property. A bit surprised about the need for bottled water but I get it, given the Tasman peninsula’s unique location.

The staff is lovely here, no problems there. We were upgraded which was great, but the room we were given had an adjoining door which didn’t give any sound proofing against our noisy neighbours. The light shone under the door and they may as well have been in the room. The view was amazing, but that door needs to be replaced.
