Clean & cosy apartment near Salamanca
We stayed here for 3 nights. The location was great, just a short walk to many places. The apartment was very clean and tidy, and had all the little extras you need. The heaters and electric blankets were very useful! Highly recommended. Thank you!

What a great location with easy access to walk to many attractions in Hobart. The apartment was comfortable with good amenities and easy to find. The parking was in the street behind the apartments but still convenient. Overall an enjoyable location in Hobart.

Wonderful short stay in Battery Point
The apartment was bright, really well-equipped and ideally located. We enjoyed a couple of mights after a multi-day hike and everything we could have needed was provided. Carol communicated really clearly about what the apartment offered and the check-in process was seamless.

Walking distance to everything
Can be a bit noisy when people arrived as the ramp to front door is in front of your verandah and the entrance to building is behind the wall where you sit in the unit. Stopped watching the movie as a busload arrived then the noise in floor above as they settled in with their cases. Bedroom quiet but not fully darkened due to light outside on building. Walking distance to Salamanca Markets. Best Fried Rice ever around the corner! Comfy bed, clean unit,great fresh coffee although we used our own. Take your own jam,honey,butter etc for toast next morning. A 2 night stay was perfect.

We loved our stay in Arwen's Abode! The apartment is as charming as the photos indicate and the location is fantastic. Carol is great with communication and information and really prompt with her replies to questions. Lovely extra touches of coffees and teas - I loved enjoying a cuppa on the balcony. Can't think of anywhere else I'd rather stay in Hobart.

Excellent all round!
The unit was gorgeous, very aesthetic, and the location great - easy walks to bakery and cafes, and to Salamanca Market and precinct. Carol was a superb communicator and very helpful beyond just providing info on where to find the keys! We will definitely be staying again when next in Hobart.
