George Hotel Launceston, An Ascend Collection Hotel
2.0 star property
Launceston CBD, 5.6 km from Waverley
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (7 reviews)

The rooms are tidy and since it is rather new comparing to the old wing, not much of smell or dampness, apart from some left over aroma from room service delivery in the elevator and hallway. The room number 405 which I stayed during the weekdays might be left for external bookings like expedia as it...
