Friendly vintage style bunkhouse, so convenient to walk to Salamanca, wharves or CBD. Clean comfortable dorms with own light and fan. Cleanliness lost a star because the shared kitchen often had rubbish bin full but most guests washed up after themselves. Even did recycling and composting. Plenty of Shared bathrooms, they just need a shower caddy over the hose to place soap & shampoo bottle. Great balcony with views to kunanyi/Mt Wellington. Definitely recommend staying here and you can meet plenty of travellers of all ages. Thanks Montacute manager!

I stayed here twice in different private rooms. The first one was very noisy, being on the stairwell. The 2nd was a lovely, clean, comfortable and quiet room (I emailed to ask for a quieter room). There are not enough toilets for the number of people staying there-only 4. The bathrooms all somehow leak and there is water all over the floors. One of the upstairs showers was very mouldy and skungey and the fan was filthy. All this would not matter for a backpackers (who pay less), but for those who pay $135-155 a night for a private room, a clean, available bathroom would be nice. The manager is creepy.

Basic things like bed, bedding, pleanty of toilets and showers. The kitchen facilities were also very impressive and even at capacity there was plenty of room to relax in and chat outside your rooms.

We loved our stay. There’s a great atmosphere at Montacute, so definitely stay if you want somewhere relaxing and quiet, but pleasantly buzzy in the kitchen during the evenings, with great conversation. Rooms are lovely, great views from upstairs, super value. We loved it, would return if we were ever in Hobart again.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at this delightful boutique bunkhouse. Situated in the most perfect location, easy walk into the city center and a stunning view from my bedroom window. I will stay again next time I find myself in Hobart.

What a Fantastic Hostel!
Ant was the perfect host and so welcoming upon my somewhat late arrival. Having run a hostel myself, I can appreciate the hard work that he has put in to make this such a unique hostel. Spotless with a variety of rental options, I chose a 4 bunk female only room and was delighted with the women who passed through while I was there who reflected the warmth and ambiance of this unique hostel. Extremely high standards of cleanliness throughout and those extra touches that make a place special.

Excellent 10/10 and highly recommended. I have high expectation but this is still beyond that. Owner and staffs are warm, nice and helpful. The upstair balcony view is great, bring your cup of coffee up there and enjoy the Mt. Kunyayi view. Nice neighbourhood (historical battery point). The house is immaculate & have multiple seating areas. This is made me not leave early every morning. During stay, I loss my small towel. It might be the staff wrongly took it when cleaning up the room or another guest is wrongly took it. But it could be better if the staff have little bit extra effort to check it. Anyway this is a small thing compare to the excellent services that they provided. Kitchen utensils is provided and I love the Moccona coffee & chai tea in the pantry. Bath towel is also provided and even the throw blanket. Another one that surprise me is the staff make up my bed every day. Thank you for hosting me! I wish i can stay longer.

We wouldn’t rate this anything higher than 5/10. Room was fine but bed super noisy and dirty windows. Mould all over the shower room. Odd smell in the kitchen and the lounge area was messy, cold and a leak had clearly damaged the ceiling. Stayed in far better hostels before.

This bunkhouse was adorable and very delightful to stay in! The owner met me upon arrival and gave me a thorough tour of the place which was very nice. My room was cozy and the bed was comfy. Everything felt clean and I would definitely stay here again if I were to return to Hobart!

Lovely place to stay
Beautiful and clean hostel to stay at. Pretty close to a lot of nice restaurants and cafes, in a calm and beautiful neighborhood. I’ve stayed in many hostel es before and this is the best without a doubt. Would recommend and will be staying here again whenever I have the opportunity. Important to notice: this is not a party hostel and it is more of a relaxed environment.

This is the ideal business in the ideal location for those of us who place greatest emphasis on a super friendly stay in a marvellous place. The bunkhouse is clean, secure and run by a friendly helpful crew who transmit a feeling of welcome to their home rather than just running a routine accommodation business. Within easy walking distance are superb dining choices, major shopping centres and entertainment precincts.

Lovely spot at a reasonable price with parking which was important to me. The communal areas had dishes which isn’t the staffs fault but the other customers. The bathrooms are a little small and dark with not much space to put towel/clothes etc while showering. Staff was wonderful and other guests in my 8pax room were gorgeous. Such a great experience and a lovely stay. Wish I could have stayed longer!!
