Cool place to stay..bit different

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 5 Mar 2020
Small boutique hotel centrally located and close to supermarket in the centre of town. Walking distance to harbour and most sites and good restaurants. People who run the place are young and dedicated.. good communication skills and love what they're doing. Share bathroom was not as bad as I thought.. nice locally made soap:) Communal lounge was clean and comfortable with loads of natural light. Totally recommend and will return.

Located right in the centre of Hobart and only a short walk to the marina, this lovely boutique hotel had comfortable and clean rooms and good shared bathrooms which were never too busy to use. The property has an excellent bar area to chill in and enjoy a drink from a wonderful selection of local craft beers, amongst other things. The hosts are welcoming and helpful and great to chat to. Absolutely loved this place.

This place is fantastic. Quirky, comfortable and reasonably priced hotel smack bang in the centre of town. The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Great selection of craft beers at the bar and super homely common area and balcony to relax and have a beer after taking in the sights of Hobart.

We stayed at the Alabama Hotel for about a week and first we thought the shared bathrooms could be a small issue for us, but the shared facilities were clean and had no line-ups in the morning. Our room was small but very comfortable, clean and had everything you could ask for. The hotel 'living room' / public area and bar is fantastic and the staff is more than helpful and very nice. This hotel is highly recommended if you are on a budget and are after a fun and friendly environment to call home for a few days.

Massive shoutout to the team at the Alabama Hotel in Hobart. Everyone that I met was incredibly friendly and helpful, it’s kept absolutely spotless and the entire atmosphere is very relaxing. 11/10 can’t wait to visit again :)

Tip: Woolsworth is a quick walk down the street. There are many shops there including a nail salon, coffee, and a liquor store.

I like the glass bottled water they offered.

Shower was hot. I never had to wait to use the shades bathroom.

There are stairs, no elevator.

The room was very spacious. It had a fan, fridge, plenty of lights, electrical outlets.

I liked the main lobby area. WiFi worked well all over the building.

The guests looked mature. It wasn’t a hostel vibe. It felt like a European hotel.

Workers were very friendly.

If you do selfies, check out all of the great walls in the hotel. They shoot nicely.

If you arrive late, be sure to get the door code! They use WhatsApp. It saved my life when I realized I was flying into Hobart after 9 PM. The staff got me the check in details within minutes. There was no need for me to panic when I realized last minute that I might not be able to get inside the hotel so late! Bless them.

Love the soap. It’s a very eco-conscience spot.

Place smelled so good!

Be sure to stock up on food. Shops close early and you may be stuck hungry without snacks in your fridge.
