Hadley's Orient Hotel

Hadley's Orient Hotel sits on Murray Street in central Hobart, in a beautifully preserved heritage building. One of the city's most historic hotels — dating back to the 1830s and once host to explorers and dignitaries — it combines gracious old-world character with comfortable accommodation and quality dining (including a renowned high tea), all in a prime central location.

The appeal is that combination of genuine heritage, lovely period character and a superb central location, close to the waterfront, Salamanca, the city's dining and the attractions. For a stay with real history and charm — and the experience of a grand heritage hotel — its blend of character, comfort and location makes it a distinctive and well-regarded choice in Hobart.

With a 4.5 rating from more than 1,000 reviews, it's clearly delivering for its guests. Room types, rates, dining, the high tea, facilities and availability vary with the season and demand, and a well-located heritage hotel books out around events and peak periods, so it's worth checking current details and booking directly ahead — particularly if you're travelling at a busy time or want a specific room type for your stay in Hobart.
