Quaint looking building with lots of character from the outside. Rooms were adequate although they were not soundproof. Close proximity to beautiful Cataract Gorge and easy walk to CBD and restaurants. Suited our needs for an overnight stay.

Beautiful Old World Heriatage Building. Great, friendly service. Fantastic value for money. Room was spacious, it had 2 singles & a double bed. Great location, I was able to take a walk into the heart of Launceston & peruse shops & cafes. It is also 5 minutes walk from the beautiful Cataract Gorge which is an essential place to visit...

Firstly, this hotel has wow factor with the charming rooms and the windmill and waterwheel etc. No doubts about it. Unfortunately I think I have had the worst experience out of the reviewers I've seen here. I got the room above the restaurant which had outdoor speakers so the music was coming right into my room even when I closed... More

Unfortunately the apartment we had was right on the main road and also had a busy bridge in front of us which was very noisy , if you happen to book an apartment at Penny Royal ask for one on the back of the complex , you won't have the traffic noise and the bright as bright lights coming in...

Excellent historic hotel with a quaint style. Rooms are spacious and very comfortable. Beautiful stonework walls and a lovey old waterwheel feature in the courtyard. Perfect location closes city centre. Easy walking distance to the river gorge. Excellent value for money

I joined a group tour in Tasmania early April 2013, and for the night we were in Launceston, we were booked at this hotel. I immediately fell in love with the theme, medieval-type rooms and doors, and the names on the room doors were so cute! Too bad we had to pack up the next morning and move on to... More

I love this hotel. I stayed here 7 years ago and again this April. The whole complex oozes heritage, but has all the mod cons needed (even electric blankets!). I particularly like the heavy oak doors and exposed beams. The "Hotel" rooms are generous in size and very clean. I'm always impressed by what you get for the price here.... More

We didn't expect this hotel to be this pretty and cozy as we haven't paid much for it (110AUD per night per room). This hotel is situated in a Mill and still has most of the features of it. Even if it's located close to the highway, our room wasn't noisy at all. It was a spacious, clean and cozy... More

Though technically part of a big chain, you wouldn't know it from the way the Penny Royal looks. It's a lovely old property with a lot of character, but the rooms are clean and modern. When you're outside the hotel room, you'll find creeping ivy and heritage features, and in the room they've left a few of those features as... More

Great location and great apartment... Just some squeaky floorboards and thin walls ... Not that they were too much of an issue.. Nice and central - a short walk to the gorge and lots of great restaurants.. We loved our stay here
