We could not have been happier about our two day stay at the Argyle Motor Lodge in Hobart. Located about 35 minutes walk (all downhill!) from Hobart’s waterfront, it has ample free car parking, big rooms and a friendly and helpful set of reception staff. There was a laundry for guest use ($7 AUS including detergent!) and our lage room had a fridge (with milk), kettle (tea and coffee provided) a hair drier, good wardrobe space, a large bed, a table for eating or working and a great bathroom with a bath and a shower. Everywhere was spotlessly clean and our room was serviced nicely too. Close by was a superb bakery serving drop dead gorgeous croissants and pastries and coffee/te which made a splendid breakfast. I jogged down to the waterfront one morning (and back, uphill). But we did have a car with us, which made moving around easier. We paid £237 for two nights bed only. A bit expensive – but not compared to other Hobart prices!

My two week stay at the Argyle Motor Lodge confirmed for me that this establishment is, in my opinion, the best value accomodation in Hobart. The lodge is conveniently located for access to downtown Hobart, the northern suburbs and the major highways. There is a thriving cafe and restaurant culture in Newtown and North Hobart that is very convenient to the lodge. The front of house staff and housekeeping were accomodating and helpful. In reception, Yvette was on point in assisting with bookings, facilities and local knowledge. A first class representative. Selena and her housekeeping team were courteous and efficient in maintaining my suite. Of particular note and not always the case in suites with kitchen facilities, used cutlery is replaced with clean, paper packaged utensils. I highly recommend the Argyle for short or longer term stays.

I stayed 5 nights for work and cannot fault this place! I generally have trouble sleeping while I’m away, but man, I have slept like a baby! Also the staff here are amazing – cannot do enough for you. Easy access to the North Hobart strip, with a raft of restaurants. Must admit I just went to the Queens Head Hotel – amazing food at an amazing price.

We stayed in Executive Queen room Feb 2024. Could not fault this room, it was very clean, very quiet, and very comfortable. Comfy queen bed, full adult-sized bathtub (shower over bath) small desk, small dining setting, comfortable 3-seater lounge. Distant glimpses of beautiful Hobart harbour. Thank you for a most comfortable stay.

The Lodge was simple but complete with basic necessities that a traveler would need. It has a small fridge, microwave, iron and ironing board, kettle and hair dryer. Staff are very accomodating and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable. Tea, Cofee, Sugar and Biscuits are free daily if needed. The place is quiet and you can get a good night sleep after a long busy day out. Most important is that the place is close to everything like the city CBD, pier, market and all kinds of restaurants and bar. I highly recommend this Argyle Motor Lodge in Hobart.
