The Maylands Lodge hosted an incredible experience with some of the best service we experienced across Tassie, lovely rooms as posted in the photos, and a wonderful breakfast included the following morning.

Would highly recommend as a stop for anyone travelling Tasmania or as a base to explore Hobart

This place is a must! The location is 10 minutes out of CBD but such a great experience to have stayed here. They have a central area with games, fire place, and lounging area which we really enjoyed. And rooms are plenty big. Free Netflix too! Breakfast was fantastic. You order from a menu and it was top notch.

This property was beautifully presented and sent excellent instructions for our late check in. the furnishings are luxuriant and very comfortable beds! The bathroom had heated flooring and a beautiful bath. there could have been more milk in the room fridge. The breakfast was included in our stay and it was exceptional. The waffles, bacon and egg, was the most beautiful flavours and textures, tastiest breakfast ever. if you want to spoil yourself, stay at Maryland's lodge. Do be aware, there is no lift, so if you have heavy luggage, request ground floor rooms!

A fantastic place to stay, with excellent service and a delicious breakfast included. It was quiet, and very clean. We haven’t stayed anywhere quite like that before and it felt like being in a story book. Definitely need a car to get into Hobart CBD, but it was our base for 5 nights as we explored the region, so we had one. It was fabulous and I highly recommend it.

Family wanted to stay at a historical place instead of a modern hotel and this is a perfedt match. It would be a good idea to drive even though there is Metro buses within 200m of the place and is about 15mins journey to the CBD. Its really a gem and the place has been through a renovation not too long ago. The beds are comfy and the bathroom is large with a big tub. Oh. You may have clean the aircon filter if the airflow is not strong.

Absolutely beautiful place to stay, the room was fabulous and toasty warm. The whole place is spotlessly clean and the staff are incredibly helpful. When I stay again I will make sure I have a hire car to explore the local area a bit more. Great food options nearby and a really good continental breakfast is available in the on site restaurant. Really enjoyable and so much nicer than a cloned modern hotel/motel.

This place is a gem and will definitely stay here again the next time I return to Hobart! Lovely grounds and views from room, friendly helpful staff and free breakfast with the option I chose. Close enough to the city centre that it allows you a good walk in which was lovely to take in the vibe of the place. You'll need a car from Newtown though to get around to see everything that the city has to offer but there is plenty of parking available at the hotel to facilitate that.

Beautiful place to stay. Really enjoyed our second stay here. Rooms are lovely with some modern touches to a historical property, and are a good size from our experience. Breakfast is included which is a bonus. It was however just a continental sryle this time which was quite adequate, but a step down from the eggs benny and waffles cooked last time. Will definitely consider a 3rd stay soon !

National Trust like experience

The place looked impressive in the photos and was even better in person. It is well-restored, and we had a very comfortable room. Breakfast was OK, and the dining room was also impressive. It is effectively a bed and breakfast. When we checked in around 6:00 p.m., the fellow at the desk was going home. He indicated that he was already on call if we had a problem and gave us his mobile number. My wife was very pleased with my selection and would like to stay there again.

Maylands was a stunning last minute find for us, filled with history. The building itself is just spectacular, perched on top of the hill, with views all around. Inside, the hallways and staircase keep their original form - well kept and decorated. The rooms are truely modern, with all the comforts of home. Gas log fire, air conditioner, huge smart TV, bluetooth speaker, and a bathroom worthy of writing home about with the giant tub and frosted glass walls. Around the building you'll find a few quiet corners with couches or chairs, just adding to the ambience of this cosy space.

The perfect stay in Hobart

The property is pretty outside and has a 5 star bathroom but lacks room facilities for the price we paid. We paid $390 for a king room which doesn’t have a spa and a queen room which doesn’t have a small eating table. For this rate we’d also expect a coffee machine. The location is in the outskirts of Hobart and inside a residential area without eating or shopping place.

A gorgeous elegant property which is being lovingly restored. Rooms are spacious and comfortable. Would be enhanced further if the dining room/restaurant was reopened. There was no toaster or microwave in our room which meant cafes for breakfast, not an inconvenience but would have been easier to get our own. We would definitely recommend Maylands Lodge and would love to stay there again.

Our two-night stay at Maylands Lodge was incredible. Arriving and stepping into the house for the first time is an experience in and of itself. In once sense, it was like being transported back in time. The rooms themselves, though, were modern, spacious and comfortable. During our stay, we were torn between wanting to explore the city and relaxing at the lodge. In the end, we did both. If we go back to Hobart again, this is where we’ll be staying. Thanks ML team!

Communication prior to and at check-in was welcoming and informative. A very comfortable stay with the freedom to access most areas of the premises making it feel like home. Attention to detail and a sense of luxury made this accommodation special. The outlook toward the mountains and the river was calming. Conveniently close to dining, retail, city , water and parks.

A gorgeous old building, beautifully renovated within. Lovely fireplace, friendly staff, comfy bed and a spacious tub in the bathroom. Seems like some issues with staffing due to covid, resulted in some small problems - used towels and dishes were taken on the first day but not replaced which made dinner tricky, and room was not serviced at all on the second day. Couldnt follow up because location is not staffed after 4pm.

Overpriced but nice

On arrival, we were quickly underwhelmed by the room for the price we paid and the bathroom (toilet bowl in particular) was still dirty. This was quickly rectified by a clean and a free bottle of wine, which was a nice gesture but had already left a taint on the experience.

Best boutique hotel we ever stayed, maybe it will continue to the best boutique luxury hotel in our life time. Beautiful Victorian architecture building has been restored and refurbished with modern amenities and comfort.

The service is top notch with care and thought.

It is like staying at your friend's old glamorous charming house. It does not feel like any hotel.

I felt so relaxed that I fell asleep in the beautiful lounge area of the hotel. It was a true luxury experience.

Having a really stylish room with a huge space enhances the sense of exclusive luxury
