"Over the past 6 years, in my visits with friends and family to undertake multi-day bushwalks, we have always stayed at The Old Woolstore. It is "Hobart" to us. It is the best way to start and finish our trips, with a couple of days here - about 15 nights so far! The staff, service, quality of the whole hotel are all fantastic. Naturally we will be back!!" Mark, NSW, January 2012

I stayed here through a military reservation. The hotel was awesome. It has an excellent restaurant in the lobby and the rooms are little apartments. I had a washer/dryer, living room, shower room, kitchenette, and a total of 4 rooms. The bar was fully stocked and had chocolate from the Cadbury factory nearby. The room was always kept clean and was in a beautiful part of downtown Hobart. This is excellent for business or a vacation." 'Army Dude' El Paso, Texas 2008
