Detailed Reviews
We stayed here for one night. Our room was comfortable enough, although the wifi signal was very weak.
Not all rooms have a park view, we were up in the back block and looked out onto a car park and another block of rooms.
There were no complimentary toiletries (shampoo and conditioner) in the bathroom so if you plan to stay here be sure to bring your own.
On the positive side, our room was very quiet and the reception staff were very helpful and friendly. It is also in a good central location, across from the lovely city park and within easy walking distance of pubs, cafes and restaurants.

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.

Great location opposite City Park. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. Staff were most friendly and helpful. A microwave was provided on request.
The verandah outside our room provided a good view of the city, which would be nice in better weather.

We stayed here for 4 nights Sunday to Thursday and not once was the room serviced. We ran out of toilet paper, sugar and milk. The reception is only open certain hours and they were not helpful. I mentioned to the reception that the room hadn't been serviced and he said they had no cleaners on. The room next door was the same and was told it would be cleaned on Friday. They had booked out. So instead of cleaning rooms when empty they leave them dirty and put people in the cleaned rooms. For a place to have 44 rooms and no cleaning staff, not a good image. Won't go back and wouldn't recommend to anyone. Also bathroom doors kept on sliding open and light from outside keeps room bright, had to put a shoe against the door, room next to us had to do the same. Would give this place 1/10.

We arrived late and were surprised to find a decent hotel room waiting after our last few nights in Queenstown and Strahan.
Decent beds, clean, plenty of parking, wifi password provided without asking, updated bathroom.
With so few people at the hotel, I would have preferred a room on the ground floor and wasn't sure why we were made to haul our luggage up to the second floor.
Regardless, the room was nice and the staff very helpful.

When you arrive, at 3pm in the afternoon as there is no one around. you have to go through all the envelopes looking for your name to find the keys to your room. How is that respecting people's privacy? so everyone has access to everyone's keys to your room?
the door didn't close properly.
The bed was comfortable but whatever you do don't look under the bed it was disgusting. it had Lolly wrappers tissues all sorts of stuff.
I even sent an email to the staff but with no reply.

I have no problem with the accommodation at the Commodore, we stopped for 2 nights before moving on to continue our tour of Tasmania.
The problem I have is the hotel taking card details in relation to a deposit of A$50 that I was assured would not be taken off the card. It was and I am unable to get this back despite having paid in full for all services provided more than a month ago.
The ‘deposit’ was taken against my Travelex card rather than the credit card that was used when the hotel was booked. Travelex will not refund the monies until the hotel provides confirmation that there is no outstanding debt and other information relating to the payment. The hotel has had the A$440 payment in full for our stay.
Over the phone the staff acknowledged that there is nothing owing to the hotel but say it is not up to them to refund the 50 dollars. I have phoned several times and emailed on numerous occasions both whilst in Australia and also after returning to the UK. I get no meaningful response despite promises that my request for them to send the required details to the card provider has been passed on. My request to speak to a manager are dealt with by telling me that none are available and my emailed request for contact details of the company CEO have been ignored. As I say I have no issue with the quality of the stay but the inaction in relation to monies owed to me leaves a lot to be desired. Quick to take your monies but so far unwilling to process documentation that would enable me to get back monies that should never have been taken from me.

Booked our night in Launceston on line. The photo of the room along with the price offered was very enticing. When we arrived at the motel I remembered staying there many years ago and that the rooms were very dated? Big surprise when we got to the room, fully renovated! Not just a new bed carpet and a fresh paint job. Completely modernised. Very happy with our night at the Commodore Regent. Will be back.

Hello JVanStav and thanks for being a returning guest, It is great to hear that you've had such a pleasant surprise on your return journey. Each year, during winter we actively approach refurbishment as best we can without disrupting guests and keeping on top of the maintenance tasks. I'm hoping that each time you return you will notice greater changes. With thanks Simon Peavey Hotel Manager

The room was nice with a Fridge and kettle for coffee. The Wi-Fi worked very well. There was free Parking outside. Across The road is City Park which has monkeys in a cage there.
You can walk to the centre in 10 minutes where you find all the shopping and restaurants. It is a bit expensive for this Hotel.
It is about 15 minutes to drive to the airport.

We arrived late at night and had to get out key from the safe and then drag our luggage up a flight of external stairs in the dark. However, the room was clean and tidy and the sheets were perfect. The view in the morning was good and as we were only there for one night it was really hard to enjoy the location as it was very conveniently located to the centre of the CBD. The manager was lovely. It was annoying that we were given Wi-Fi access for one device which is hard with two kids.
