The Sebel Launceston

The Sebel Launceston is a four-star, family-friendly hotel in the city centre, at the corner of St John and William streets. Its main point of difference is the apartment-style accommodation: the property has 52 one-, two- and three-bedroom suites, each designed with spacious bedrooms, separate bathrooms and, in most accommodation types, a private balcony. This gives guests more room than a conventional hotel room, particularly useful for families, longer stays and groups travelling together.

Accommodation ranges from one-bedroom standard, deluxe and executive suites through to two-bedroom suites, a three-bedroom apartment and a four-bedroom penthouse. The listed suites accommodate up to three people, while the larger apartments sleep up to seven and the penthouse accommodates up to eight. Several options include city views, and the two-bedroom executive suite offers either a balcony or corner-room configuration. The hotel also provides air conditioning, Wi-Fi, an on-site car park and wheelchair-accessible facilities. Pets are not permitted.

Bluestone Bar & Kitchen occupies the ground floor and serves modern Australian food with an Asian influence. The hotel also highlights its access to cool-climate wines, whisky and craft beer from Tasmania and other Australian regions. Breakfast, room service and a bar are available on site, along with a fitness centre. For business travellers, the property has two conference spaces, with the largest room covering 70 square metres and seating up to 90 people. Its event facilities also cater for weddings, with capacity for up to 50 guests seated or 100 in a cocktail-style setting.

The central location makes it practical for exploring Launceston on foot, with restaurants, bars and shops nearby. The Auto Museum and Inveresk Precinct are listed within walking distance, while Cataract Gorge is 2.3 kilometres away. James Boags Brewery and the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery are also identified as nearby attractions, and the Tamar Valley is within driving distance for visitors interested in wineries, galleries and wildlife. The hotel is around 15 minutes from Launceston Airport, making it a convenient base for business trips, family holidays, couples and solo travellers wanting accommodation close to the city’s attractions.
