Photo of Islington Hotel

“An old Regency house is the perfect setting for this art-filled boutique hotel with fabulous glass & stone extension, in hill South Hobart with stunning views to Mt Wellington. A swimming pool, BBQ facilities & an acre of manicured gardens with a 100 year old willow tree complete the picture. A gem.”

Islington Hotel - Hotel Review

"Up the hill from central Hobart, this small, elegant hotel quickly feels like your own little indulgent secret, full of quiet places to read, nap or stare at the sky, either within its handsome 19th-century interiors or out in the fruit-tree filled garden."
