Beautiful old building. Comfortable bed. Shower hot and good pressure. Good WIFI. Good value for money. Steep stairs to carry bags to rooms when upstairs. Not good for older people. No lifts. Very noisy from music and also people speaking and making noise in other rooms. Having to check in and then drive further to accomodation.

Good Location and definitely recommend it. A reception office near room 329 will be helpful. Otherwise, you may have to walk with your luggage about 100m or more after collecting your room key which feels a bit awkward.

We loved the building and feel of going back in time. Loved the kitchen supplies for the room and the little touches such as ear plugs. Lamps for the bedside. The rooms look well decorated and homely. Very clean sheets and towels. Plenty of room in the bar fridge for own food and microwave for cooking some instant meals so handy for families. Thanks for making a lovely atmosphere.

My only disappointment was no room service. This is so important because we found ourselves with no where to eat as everywhere closed so early mid week in Launceston.

The property was very clean and had everything we needed. Perfect location right next to the gorge. We went mid week when penny royal was closed, I'm not sure if the noise from the park would be annoying if you stayed over the weekend. The backdrop of penny royal added to our experience.

Absolutely no reason for you to scan and retain drivers license as a requirement to stay at the property. This is a huge privacy issue. If you want to check ID at check-in, fine. But for you to demand to scan and retain drivers license details is simply unacceptable.
