Blue Hills offers excellent value accommodation in Hobart's Battery Point district, within walking distance of the waterfront and Salamanca markets. The rooms may be “no frills” but have priceless views over Mount Wellington and the Derwent Rover. As well as the en-suite bedrooms, guests can opt for a self-contained apartment with kitchenette and refrigerator for added flexibility. All rooms come with a 32-inch flat-screen TV (with free in-house movies) and tea and coffee making facilities. Blue Hills offers free high speed Wi-Fi access throughout and limited parking spaces. Laundry and business services are also provided. The hotel is within walking distance of many restaurants and cafes. The city centre of Hobart is also just five minutes' drive away and the beach can be reached in eight minutes. Wrest Point Casino and Hobart's Botanical Gardens are under two kilometres away. Hobart International Airport is 20 kilometres from the hotel.
The big attraction of this hotel for guests is its excellent location. You have easy access to Salamanca markets and the shops and restaurants around. You are also not far from the city centre of Hobart and have supermarkets nearby to stock up on provisions.
If you're not looking for luxury accommodation, you should be satisfied with what this hotel offers. OK - it is basic, but you are not paying the earth either. Guests say you have everything you need for a very reasonable rate. The place is spotlessly clean and the rooms are spacious and comfortable.
The lovely views over Wellington Mountain from your window could more than make up for the lack of frills. Guests appreciate the beautiful sights from three sides of the building.
The hotel seems to have been under renovation for an eternity with no end in sight. “Renovation in progress” seems to be a huge understatement, as the whole place has been turned upside down and resembles a building site. Whilst guests acknowledge that they have been informed of the renovations, and that they are necessary, they do still have a detrimental effect on their stay. Rooms are not finished and in a poor state.
Guests choosing a self-catering option are frequently disappointed by the standard of their accommodation and the lack of facilities. There are no microwaves or toasters and you may even lack basic essentials, such as pots and pans and utensils.
As well as the din from the renovation works, guests often complain that they can hear everything going on in neighbouring rooms and from the lobby. You are also right next to a busy road and have to contend with traffic noise.
