Battery Point Guest House is situated in a quiet grove, adjoining historic Salamanca Place. The little shops of Battery Point are on the doorstep and its a two-minute walk to famous Salamanca Market, galleries and restaurants of Salamanca Place and Sullivans Cove.

The house is Gothic, built in the 1880s and National Trust classified. It was originally a coach house and stables for the nearby mansion Lenna. The period style has been preserved but all modern conveniences are installed for your comfort.

Start the day with a hearty English breakfast in the sunny dining room before you head out to explore the city of Hobart. You could drive to the nearby summit of Mount Wellington for stunning views up and down the River Derwent and out to sea, or take in a country drive across the Tasman Bridge to Richmond.

You can make the most of a nostalgic maritime experience if you stay in our Empire Suite, a recreated Edwardian ships stateroom, reminiscent of a stateroom on Titanic. Complete with handmade furniture and garlands on the ceilings, this will put you in the right mood for a visit to the maritime museum at Sullivans Cove where a huge collection of pictures, photos and artefacts that tells the story of Tasmania's rich maritime history.

After a busy day join guests by the fire in the lounge and spin a few salty tales over a glass of port.
