Tasmania's natural, culinary and creative treasures are within easy reach of award-winning hotel, The Tasman. Anchored to the waterfront precinct and in the embrace of kunanyi / Mount Wellington, Australia's first Luxury Collection hotel sits comfortably between Hobart's city centre, picturesque Derwent harbour, Mona ferry terminal and the iconic Salamanca and Battery Point neighbourhoods. In a showcase of understated elegance by design, The Tasman is an architectural symphony – an overture of 1840s Georgian heritage, building to 1940s art deco, with a 2020s modern extension finale. Original sandstone contrasts spectacularly with a glass-encased prism of modern architecture.
A hotel of luxury design and architectural distinction, The Tasman Hobart celebrates the city’s natural maritime advantage. Like a seafarer’s rope, it is a woven story of local materials and luxury finishes that seamlessly tie together three eras of design. In the Heritage building, original Georgian details have been restored and reimagined. Rooms feature original windows, restored fireplaces, original artwork and custom furnishings. The St David’s Park Suite, the crown jewel of the Heritage building, overlooks its namesake park and features a lofty ceiling reminiscent of the first ships arriving in Hobart, exposed sandstone walls and original artwork. Art deco rooms are a vision of luxury, with rich colours and materials and blackheart sassafras ceilings. Within the contemporary Pavilion building, rooms feature sweeping water views through floor-to-ceiling windows. The premier suite is Aurora Suite, with its spectacular outdoor terrace overlooking Hobart’s harbour. Through deep rooted connections, The Tasman opens a door to rare and captivating encounters with local people, flora and fauna, sharing a trait of having found ways to thrive on a small island at the bottom of the world. Breathe in air that awakens, learn about history that astounds, and marvel at craftsmanship in many forms – be it natural Tasmanian timber products, exquisitely distilled spirits, or produce grown in fertile soil. The Tasman has crafted a range of experiences and partnerships that offer deep immersion and connection. From ethically raised pork and handmade goat’s cheese to organic teas and exclusive whiskies, dining at The Tasman is proudly rooted in the culinary landscape that surrounds it. At Peppina, Tasmanian local Massimo Mele replicates the charm of his nonna’s kitchen through Italian-inspired dishes crafted with seasonal ingredients sourced from area farmers. Deco Lounge, overlooking Parliament Square, offers a refined setting for all-day small plates and a signature high tea featuring Tasmanian produce. At the speakeasy-inspired Mary Mary, classic cocktails are reimagined using native ingredients and spirits from Tasmania’s finest distilleries. 12 Murray Street, Hobart thetasmanhobart.com (03) 6240 6000 |
