DoubleTree by Hilton Hobart

While our stay began on a challenging note, it gradually turned into a genuinely enjoyable experience. One of the highlights was the incredibly welcoming and accommodating staff, who went out of their way to make us feel at home. A particularly memorable moment was when a staff member who had served us at the bar earlier in our stay recognised us at breakfast and greeted us warmly each morning, a simple but thoughtful gesture that really made us feel valued as guests. The rooms were cleaned thoroughly every day, and it made such a difference coming back to a fresh, tidy space after long days out exploring the sights of Hobart. It was clear that attention to detail mattered to the housekeeping team, and that helped us feel relaxed and well looked after. The breakfast service noticeably improved as the week went on, with the atmosphere becoming much calmer and more pleasant compared to the initial chaos of the weekend.

Everything was absolutely incredible! From the moment we checked in, the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had a comfortable and memorable experience. They were genuinely welcoming, attentive, and always happy to assist with any requests we had. The rooms were spotless and beautifully maintained, with every detail thoughtfully considered to make our stay perfect. The cleanliness throughout the hotel was impeccable, which made us feel even more relaxed and at ease. Breakfast was a highlight of our stay! The variety was outstanding, with fresh and delicious options catering to all tastes.

Breakfast was yummy. A bit expensive but I know you have to recoup your cost. When kids only eat a small amount even $20 is alot. I definitely wouldn't have eaten $39 worth, and even my husband who is a big eater only ate that much to get his money's worth! I work in waste management and food waste is Australia's biggest contributor to carbon emissions. By charging so much, people tend to load their plate up, eat what they can, then go back for more of something else, just to get their money's worth. You might want to reassess the economics around how much food is wasted versus eaten and if this is contributing to the high charge. By charging less guests may feel less inclined to eat/load their plate so much. You will always have people who abuse the buffet option but on the whole, I think you would have more repeat service if the prices were lower. We would have come back the second day if so.

The warm cookies that were given to us on arrival as my daughter ate mine and couldn't stop telling me how "AmAzInG" they were. My daughter and granddaughter enjoyed a dip in the pool that changed colours 😍 and warmed up in the Sauna ... pity the gym wasn't full of hot guys for nannas viewing pleasure, but......hey, you win some, you lose some. The bathroom facilities were great with the 2 shower head options. Access to bathrobes was a bonus as my daughter didn't pack for a pool and needed to do a sneak with the underwear for a dip ... much more discreet.

Beautiful reception area. Great first impressions. Staff were really lovely. We loved our cookie on arrival. The TV had casting functions so we could stream from our iPad. Room was very modern and made up daily. Great location - walking distance to everything. Parking was available at the hotel. The treadmills in the gym were great.
