In a non smoking room, it's full of smokes, and the reception has been contacted twice and very slow response, not helpful at all. There's some biscuit chips on the bed cover. More

One night stay on a week night. Great location, but in desperate need of updating, especially for the room rate. Quiet, clean room and the window could be open a couple of inches to allow for fresh air into the room. Amenities are outdated (old 48cm CRT tv, basic kettle, etc). Comfortable bed, but basic sheeting - don't expect Egyptian... More

We stayed one night at the Wrest Point Hotel Casino in Hobart - I had stayed there previously and had enjoyed it. We booked into a Harbour view room - after the free valet parking, we had any easy and informative check-in. Our room had a lovely style - recently refurbished by the looks of things. Great view of the... More

The hotel rooms that we stayed in and looked in had colours straight out of the 1970s - olive green, bright red, mustard... Garish and old fashioned. Staff were impersonal and the food in the revolving restaurant was (mostly) bland and no better than pub grub. A disappointment with an expensive price tag. More

We have stayed at Wrest Point a few times now, and we believe that offers reasonable value and great views. The hotel is not in great condition, and the suites are truly dated, but some may find that quaint. The desk staff are cheery and helpful, and the rooms are reasonably well appointed and clean. If you want the latest... More

We stayed at Wrest Point recently for a week, with our 2 young kids. We were really impressed with the high level of service (not to mention the amazing harbour and mountain views from our room, and the great location). The concierge staff were fantastic. As we had a hire car, the valet parking service was very helpful. The kids... More

When we booked the Wrest Point for New Year's Eve we knew the hotel had been around for a while but we still expected the star rating to give us a good experience. Unfortunately, this was not the case. We booked through a third party web site and expected either two connecting rooms or a room big enough for my... More

We'd booked 2 nights at Wrest Point and the best thing I can say about it is that their cancellation policy is great. After walking into the room and being really disappointed we rang down to reception to cancel the 2nd nights stay, which we were able to do without any charge. We had a room in the Mountain side...
