Battery Point Manor

Battery Point Manor offers accommodation in a Georgian-style mansion built in 1834, on Cromwell Street in Battery Point, Hobart. Originally created for a prominent family and now owned by two local families, the property sits within one of Hobart’s historic areas, surrounded by original architecture, gardens and views towards the Derwent River. Its setting gives the stay a strong sense of place, while remaining close to the city’s waterfront and Salamanca.

The property has rooms and apartments described as spacious and comfortable, with fresh linen supplied, Wi-Fi, air conditioning and non-smoking rooms. Harbour views are available from the rooms, except for rooms 7, 8 and 9, and the site also highlights outlooks across the river to boats and the mountains. Free onsite parking is available, with unmetered street parking as another option. These practical inclusions make it suited to visitors looking for a base with more room and character than a standard city stay.

Location is one of Battery Point Manor’s main features. Salamanca and Hobart’s waterfront are about a five-minute walk away, while nearby village streets provide access to restaurants, cafés and shops. The property describes the accommodation as peaceful at night despite its proximity to dining and Salamanca, so guests can stay within walking distance of central attractions while being based in a quieter historic neighbourhood. The surrounding area also offers gardens, original buildings and changing views over the Derwent, giving guests plenty to explore without travelling far.

With rooms, apartments and a family room mentioned on the site, Battery Point Manor may suit couples, families, solo travellers and small groups wanting to experience Battery Point rather than stay outside the city. It is particularly appealing for guests who value heritage surroundings, river views and a convenient walk to Salamanca. The property’s own history connects with Battery Point’s maritime past: the area was settled in 1804 and later named for coastal defence guns established on the point in 1818. Together, the historic building, local ownership and central setting make this a distinctly Battery Point place to stay in Hobart.
