Proximity to Spirit of Tasmania. I was informed I would get a cheaper rate if direct motel contact but the quote was $20 more than online. No thanks.

Great overnight stay for catching the ferry. Supplied plates, bowls, cutlery and microwave if you want to do a quick self catered breakfast before you leave. A little bit noisy but that was our neighbours not the hotel's fault. Dinner was great and so conveniently close. Overall I would recommend.

Very good accommodation for Spirit of Tasmania tra

Being travellers on the Spirit of Tasmania we found the Argosy to be reasonably priced and in close proximity to the boat’s terminal. Meals were excellent and breakfast is served at 6.30am, which gave us time to eat breakfast before boarding the ferry. Would highly recommend this venue.

Liked: Cleanliness
Room had been partially renovated. Renovations were good, but some had not been done - paint flaking etc on door, skirtings. Be prepared for a lot of road noise - windows are not double glazed even after renovation. Also had very noisy guests nearby after midnight - which of course is not the fault of the hotel. Other than that - it is a convenient location with a bistro attached for dinner and breakfast.
