Best Hotels in Mowbray, Australia

We stayed here as a family of five in a Family Room with private ensuite. We checked in 15 minutes early but the lady was happy to give us the keys to the room. The accommodation is upstairs on top of a pub/pokies. There is no lift so you have to walk up two flights of stairs and carry your luggage. Our room was very spacious with two single beds, and a sofa bed in the main living area. There was a private ensuite separating the queen bed room which was perfect for my parents. The room had basic furniture, a TV, fridge and coffee/tea making facilities. My son loved having a bubble bath as we only have a shower at home. The room was clean and the wide windows around the room made a good view of the outside which my son could look out of. Our room was situated next door to the communal kitchen and opposite to the shared bathroom which was very convenient. The hotel is within walking distance to a shopping plaza, restaurants, a KFC, Hungry Jacks, Coles and Woolworths. The only negative was that our room was situated along a busy main road and at night you could hear all the traffic passing by so we didn’t get a good night’s sleep. Also our booking via booking.com said we would get two free welcome drinks for two guests upon arrival but we didn’t get that. Other than that, we had a pleasant stay at Mowbray Hotel and would consider staying here again.

DISGUSTING! We entered the vuilding and immediately a disgusting smell of dirty feed crashed into our noses! We honestly wanted to throw up and at 7pm when we arrived there was already nobody in the reception to talk to or to complain to. My bunkbed had a chewing gum sticked on it (photo attached). At night people were loud till 1am and in the morning at 5am they were back on, behaving as if it was noon time. We complained the morning after to the hostal that did not assume any responsability, saying nobody ever complained. No compensation whatsoever, but how could we prove the disgusting smell of the building?! NEVER AGAIN. ABSOLUTELY NOT RECOMMENDED.

Lovely place to stay. Well located to be able to get around the city with a supermarket across the street and walking distance to city centre and beautiful parks. Absolutely no noise from the road, other guests or neighbourhood do was very peaceful. The Staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms were immaculately clean and the most comfortable beds ensured a restful nights sleep. I had requested a ground floor apartment and walk in shower for my elderly mother who was staying with us and these were accommodated. I really can’t fault anything about this place other than it would be beneficial to have lighting above the mirror in the bathroom for applying makeup and shaving. Would be happy to stay here again and would definitely recommend.

An iconic piece of Launceston history. A beautiful building containing beautiful furnishings throughout - particularly loved the wood furniture. Great location. A warm welcome from friendly, helpful Jude was the start to a most enjoyable stay. Spacious room with a very comfy bed. Very clean, quiet and comfortable. All good! Highly recommended.

The room was nice with a clean bathroom and comfortable bed, however very small and seemed better suited to someone on business rather than holidaying. There was quite a bit of noise surrounding as the front door opened to the car park, and the walls must be thin because you can hear voices from neighbouring rooms. The car park was also full most of the time so finding a park was difficult. I’d only recommend staying for business purposes only. Location was good.

Great location. 5 minute walk to main part of town for shops and restaurants. Rooms clean and tidy and beds very comfortable. Restaurant is small but the meals were nice and the staff very friendly. Room has all the amenities you need (tea, coffee facilities plus bathroom) Opposite the park, lovely for strolls. Monkeys to see between 8am - 4pm

At the last minute we decided to stay in Launceston. Found the Park Lane Motel online and booked. It's an older property but super clean, reasonably priced and has a great view over the City Park. A short walk to central Launceston and the managers are very helpful. If you're looking for a place in central Launceston then I can recommend the Park Lane.

I appreciate a hotel that offers a fridge, kettle, toaster and microwave! It always helps being able to cook a little. The view was quite good too, overlooking Launceston, and it was an easy walk into town. Beds weren’t comfy with the springs being closer to the surface than I hoped. And whilst it may be small, the TV only picked up SBS Food. A good channel, but after a big day exploring it’s nice to just zone out which I couldn’t do. Would recommend for a short, overnight stay.

This must be the only hotel in Australia that charges more to book direct than through a 3rd party. I stayed twice because of the location, once through Air BnB and once directly. The Air BnB offer seems to be a sublease through a guy who rarely responds to messages and the front desk don't deal with his bookings. I tried to extend my first visit but he wouldn't respond so I just left. The 2nd stay I thought may be better booking direct but they wanted to change me more $16 than online. They honoured booking.com's price when challenged but this seems very poor practise. The staff were kind and the room was clean but I wouldn't be bothered again.

Not recommended if you have heavy baggage as theres no elevator (only 2 floors though). The place is beautiful as it’s on the top of a hill, but not so convenient if you’re on foot to sightseeing / do grocery so I’ll give it a 4. We didn’t need much service it’s mostly just DIY without much issue so I’ll give it a 5. The place is definitely clean so 5. Amenities would be 3 due to the stairs for heavy baggages (might not be an issue for everyone), also there’s no blind or door for the shower so the water would spill out to other areas in the washroom even if you are very cautious.
