I know its cheap to stay here and its budget accommodation but i was a little annoyed with this place. When we arrived it was late at night so we collected our key from a key safe and entered. The downstairs area looked really nice so we thought we had got a right deal before we found our room. We... More

The Batman has become my homebase during my hiking travel through Tasmania. The best and authentic place near town and the citypark to relax, enjoy the city and watch dvd's. Thank you Lawrence and Jane!

Communal kitchen, lounge and laundry if you wish to use it. Only has about 6 car parks for whole complex so parking is a bit... More

Recommended. The rooms aren't flash (i.e. a bit worn) but they are clean & relatively spacious and great value for the price. Staff were very helpful & friendly.

It is located near the main street where you can find several restaurants and bars (Launceston is quite small, so even the main street is relatively quiet on Saturday nights). The whole hotel looks old and worn out. The room is quite small (and my single room is actually with a bunker bed). For about A$60 per night, it is... More

The somewhat eccentric Belgian man who runs the desk at this historic place in downtown Launceston was helpful and entertaining. Rooms are at or above backpacker standards, generally clean and renovated far more recently than the historic building itself. Car parking is easy to find out front, kitchen is fully functional and you may even make friends with the dog... More
