    N/A

    In a city that is being whitewashed with modernist homogeneity, The Astor retains the old-world charm that Hobart was built on. The quirks are the things that make it interesting.

    I don’t like that it might not be around for much longer. It’s one of the most special buildings in Hobart

    The 1920’s haunted ballroom atmosphere. Straight out of The Shining. Immaculate interior.

    Hotel Astor exceeded my expectations. It was obvious the owners took a lot of pride in the hotel, and were very friendly and cared about their guests. The rooms were warm, comfortable and clean. I hope I have the opportunity to stay there again.

    Like stepping back in time, in the best possible way. Excellent hosts, comfy beds, close to everything, and the best decor in town! All round good vibes, will be back for sure.

    The hotel is dated, in fact it's like sleeping in a historical landmark, which it probably is. So there are not electrical outlets where you might want them.

    I like the location, the ambiance and the price. The owners are very pleasant. The breakfast is basic but good at a negligible price. I found the external bathroom to be not a problem at all.

    Only minor issue is day parking - you'll need to look around as there isn't anything available near-by during the day. The propritor has suggestions, but there are paid car parks within 1km.

    Gorgeous and quirky presentation. Lovely service with someone who clearly cares about the building and business. THey offer a very basic (and very cheap) breakfast option. The location is perfect with comfortable walking distance to the harbour front shops and eatieries, museums and markets.

    Nothing could be better, it’s excellent value for the cost.

    I love staying at the Astor! Tildy and Neil went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and accomodate my requests. The shared bathrooms are super clean, it’s fabulous budget accommodation.

    The 1830 ‘s lift old style , so chose the stairs and walked up with heavy luggage to reception on first floor about 20 steps -if I knew before I arrived I would have put my luggage in lift and picked it up on first level , it was as simple as that - and that’s what I did when I left

    Warm friendly homely greeting from the amazing colourful couple that reside in and manage this one of a kind boutique hotel , they were more than happy to be of service in any way , the boutique hotel was decorated in an eclectic style , almost biographical of a by gone era , with luxurious coloured velvet feel carpets , beautiful paintings and decor , fresh flowers throughout , and a lovely communal lounge if you want to connect with others .- breakfast simple but adequate , will definitely return to same place to these lovely hosts .
