Find the Cheap Huonville Hotels

Being country people, who have enjoyed camping holidays all our lives, the description provided by Huon Bush Retreat of their property and facilities resonated with us. But….. all is not as described. Great location but not value for money. The cabin was approximately $380pn and the shower was cold. (Another guest told us her shower was cold, also.) Polite phone and text requests to address this were ignored. Be aware there are no power points, only two usb charging points. The composting toilet, while conforming to the eco ethos of the place, would be better built into a separate room, perhaps on the verandah, rather than integrated into bathroom area. It had a pervasive, cloying smell. When we saw campsites set out on steep slopes that would have been hopeless for putting up a tent, we were glad our plans to camp there had changed. The walks were beautiful, but no more so than many national parks offer. The only native animals we encountered were half tame ones around our cabin that had been fed by the owner. This gave one an impression of being immersed in the bush, but the only ones we saw were around the camping area - quite the opposite of what one would expect of wild animals. In fact we saw more wildlife walking in the bush on top of Mt Nelson, Hobart. There had obviously been a safety system in place at some time, whereby walks had to be registered at the start of the walk. this had been let lapse, as there was no paper in the folder where we could register our names etc to show that we were somewhere in the bush. Overall, lack of transparency about things like cold showers and being expected to thoroughly clean the place; ‘every ten minutes the cleaner spends cleaning your cabin, you will be charged $20 left us feeling ripped off and glad to get away.

From the moment we entered the public bar, Kurt’s warm greetings and constant attention was fantastic during our overnight stay in a heritage room. His attention and thoughtfulness, was really appreciated (started fire in guest lounge upstairs) . Dinner that night was absolutely superb, thanks chef, (ocean trout, seafood chowder) so returned for lunch 2 days later. Welcoming our return was Kurt. I can’t recommend a visit to the Huon without a visit to the Kermandie Hotel.

We absolutely loved this B&B what beautiful accommodation. Our room was magnificent it had a balcony with the most breathtaking views across to Bruny Island and a magnificent bathroom and a beautiful big deep bathtub. The wildlife came out and we loved watching them going about their routine oblivious to us. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful and the setting was perfect. Our host Leonie and husband Tim thank you for making our stay memorable. We have made a winter reservation so we can’t wait to to see you again.

My wife and I stayed there for 2 nights. Our room was nice but could have done with a small table and 2 chairs. We had a double bed and 2 bunks. Bed and pillows were comfy. Cooked b/fast was included in the tarif. The place was a boutique B and B. But it served evening meals and alcoholic drinks in the comfortable dayroom, cafe, bistro.At night they had a nice fire going in the fireplace. The food they served was of good quality and well presented. Some people might have had to wait longer than they expected, but like everywhere in Australia staff shortages were a problem. All up,our stay was quite enjoyable.
