Hotel Grand Chancellor Hobart
The location is right across from the port, so it's great. The room was very clean, the bed was very comfortable. The sound-proof was less than idea. The guest acrossa the hall from our room was drank that night. He spoke loudly for a long time outside his room, and we heard every word.
