Top Ferndene State Reserve Hotel Reviews

Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Our executive ocean front suite was perfect - had everything we needed. Staff were very accommodating with a late check out as well. Great location and would definitely stay here again."

Beachfront Voyager Motor Inn

8/10 Good

"close to beach & penguins"

One North Terrace

10/10 Excellent

"Good view, comfortable bed, great place to stay for work."

Ulverstone Waterfront Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"The property was excellent. Beautifully decorated and clean throughout. The position of the property was very good, walking distance to the shops and places to eat. Would highly recommend this property, couldn't fault it."

The Madsen

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely quiet rooms, staff great, close to everything"

The Duck House

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic period house located near the shopping center of town. All the amenities that you could wish for. Our Blue Heeler loved the place and had a good investigation around the back yard. Highly recommend a stay here. Our host was very pleasant and we had a good chinwag with him."

Burnie by the Bay Apartments

8/10 Good

"At first glance it does not look promising as it is actually on the Bass Highway next to an intersection, so noisy if in the lounge, but the main bedroom is at the back and traffic dies down at night so it is not so much a problem. That said, in fact the location is excellent as it is a short walk into town along the boardwalk where the little penguins come ashore. The amenities are clean and excellent with a shared laundry and off-street parking although the kitchen utensils could do with some rethinking, and some of the outdoor lights need new globes - something which is probably not evident if the apartment is serviced in daylight. These are minor quibbles, easily fixed, and, all in all, it is a good place in which to base yourself for touring the north coast."

Penguin Waterfront Escape

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. Very nice town."

Nightcap at Burnie Townhouse

8/10 Good

"Close to city. Clean and bright with friendly staff on site laundry! Restaurant is good value for money. Free parking too."
