My experience at Windarra On High (as a solo traveller) is on par with stays at some of the most prestigious hotels in the world.

I arrived in Launceston late in the evening, so I had to rely on instructions from the team at Windarra On High to get access. I’m extremely relieved to say the check-in instructions were absolutely accurate, allowing me to settle in seamlessly.

The interiors (the common hallways, the dining room and the guest room) were absolutely stunning and spotless.

The common hallways, dining room, and guest rooms were absolutely stunning and spotless, not to mention how warm and cozy the room was for a cold winter night in Launceston.

The next morning, I had the pleasure of meeting Susanna over the complimentary breakfast. She is exceptionally warm, welcoming, and clearly works tirelessly to ensure a flawless guest experience. The breakfast itself was incredibly fulfilling, with a wonderful variety of options on offer.

If you’re visiting Launceston and want to soak up the local heritage while enjoying a world-class experience, why would you stay anywhere else?

I had a wonderful stay, the building is very charming and clean, as was my room. the Bed was comfortable. I appreciated how easy check in and out was. There were a couple of small maintenance issues with my room (a wall lamp that did not work and the sliding bathroom door was off its hinges) but I mentioned them to somebody at breakfast the next day and she said she would be happy to pass the message along. I do think advertising as free parking is slightly misleading when the parking is available on street and only free on weekends and outside of working hours, but it did not impact my stay which was on the weekend.

Room was a good size, and we were able to park right out the front. Breakfast was lovely, big selection of cereals, yogurt and breads available. Was lovely to have the electric fire going in the room. Clear instructions received on how to use the digital key pad at the front door, and the location of our room. Located close to the CBD. Would happily stay again if visiting Launceston.

This was a beautiful building to stay in. Check in was clear and easy. The room was spacious and comfortable.

The only downside was the internet extender didn't work in our room and the breakfast was cleaned up at 9am instead of 930am on our first morning. Not a big, but when on holidays, we like to have a slower paced morning :)

Beautiful old building, but room was a disappointment for the price. Bathroom was clean but very dated probably 1980's.
Did not receive text about access or breakfast times but i had trouble with i messages at the time. Breakfast was good and breakfast server was very accommodating when I wanted breakfast early. Bed was very comfortable but light coming through the blind helped me get a bad nights sleep. Being Launceston one would expect a heater in the bathroom but there wasn't one. No information in the room on how to operate the heater or breakfast times etc. Overheard a guest saying heater didn't work until I told them about the switches inside. Overall a bit disappointed at this premium price point.
