Would I stay again.... No.
Good location 10mins from Hobart town centre, the hotel is located in a beautiful old school building. That's the good news. Behind the facade, its not so good. We booked superior twin room, which includes a useless lounge area - the only tv is the bedroom, the only place to see the tv is by laying on the bed! The tv is bad, very cheap and nasty. Only the bed is worse. The mattress is way too soft (ok personal choice), and the base is falling apart - feels like you'd fall off any moment. Worse hotel bed ever experienced!
Simple things make the difference - like wall hooks to hang wet coats, quality tea and coffee in the room, good size tea cups, or a window blind to stop people seeing into bathroom!... Sadly the room didnt have any of these.
Two for one drink offer at bar, draws you in, but with so many restrictions on its use its not worth it. Plenty of better places to eat and drink 10mins walk away in Elizabeth St.
Enjoy!

Older property that lacks some modern amenities such as a room safe, a TV in the separate sitting area and we had to ask for a hand towel.
The breakfast was adequate but even though we arrived when breakfast started, the food was cool to warm at best.
This property wasn’t up to the standard we expected of a Rydges hotel.

Hotel room had a really nice king size bed with a big 65 inch HD TV (very good quality picture). Would have really enjoyed the bedroom being bigger by removing the large sitting room at the room entrance (not used). The bathroom shower was outstanding: truely wonderful with soap, shampoo & conditioner provided from each dispenser. Would have loved the use of a bathroom robe for both of us. Bed was really comfy. Breakfast was good value at the discounted cost provided: coffee was outstanding (we had 2 cups each). Location suited us being in North Hobart, as we were heading to the airport from the hotel. Being in the 40’s numbered rooms we had to carry our luggage up 3 flights of stairs: no lifts: could be a problem for those unfit or older. We continue to travel extensively internationally & domestically: being fit & healthy over 65 retirees. We have rated our stay a 4 based on the above honest feedback. Would we stay again: we would love to but only if improvements were made, including a better value for money sit-down breakfast. A last words: terrific off-street parking for guests & staff were very nice also.

We have stayed at Rydges 3 times before, and loved it. This time, no. We had the king suit, but only one soap and one face washer for the twin vanities. First night, I thought it must have been an oversight. Second day, same, just one soap and one face washer. Room was spotless and bed was up to Rydges standard, very comfortable.

The room and hotel were fine. However, we rented a room hoping to have a sort of vintage staying (that is how the room was advertised) to then be sent to a room that was not in the main building itself. Again, the room was ok but it wasn't what we expected.

The breakfast could definitely improve. The pastries seemed to be those you buy frozen at the supermarket. No cheese slices, some days ham some days salmon (Hobart, Tasmania, you would expect more). Worst scrambled eggs on the world.

Fantastic little boutique hotel housed in an historic former school for the Blind and Deaf. The rooms are generously sized, beds comfy, staff polite and helpful, and it has a brilliant restaurant. One thing that I would recommend is to install heaters in the bathrooms as they get quite chilly. Also employ a bellboy/girl/person to help the reception (they do almost everything!). Will stay here again. :)

Average for a Rydges Hotel

The Hotel is charming and located near good cafes. The room was spacious and bed comfortable. Unfortunately I was located on the lower floor of an attached building and the noise from the bathroom above keep me awake with the toilet flushing and shower being used. No insulation between the bathrooms which was a negative in my view as a light sleeper.

It started with a poor description on how to find my room that a guest staying there helped sort out. I booked as an Executive room?

For a room that sells for between $165 and $200 plus.

The bed in the room had a large crack in the frame you could see through. With a chuck of the wood missing making it feel unsteady and a bit rickerty.

The mattress and sofa were so uncomfortable it gave us back aches.

The tea towel was covered in stains and the crockery didn't match, along with the Anko Kmart kettle the whole experience at this price level was very ordinary.

There was barely any milk with tiny milk pods, and at that room cost level. I am looking for a minimum of decent milk and coffee pod machine and not a trip to the restaurant a considerable walk away to buy coffee for their additional profit margins?

There was no air conditioning, the rooms were hot and stuffy and the Kmart fan didn't make a dent in the room heat.

Listening to someone's TV at 11:45 pm when working the next day left us sore and exhausted.

Looks so much better in the photo's than the experience turned out to be, not repeatable for me as a Tasmanian when there are so many other nicer more comfortable choices near by to stay at.

We had a nice spacious room but the bed was very squeaky, the mattress is wider than the frame, therefore sank on the side, very small for a queen bed, not a fan of poster beds either, I know they’re keeping the antique look but I think a queen ensemble bed would be a better fit for this beautiful big room, other than that we had a lovely stay
