EXPERIENCE
Islington Hotel is a very special, small luxury hotel with a long history and a large and delightful garden, affording quite special views of Mount Wellington. Decorated with fine artworks and furnished with antiques, Islington Hotel appeals to those who want the very best in life, surrounded by great service, presented in an atmosphere of serenity, luxury and tranquility. Built in 1847, Islington Hotel is a fine example of Regency architecture recently restored to showcase its original glory and up-dated to include the little necessities and amenities our forebears over-looked, such as a mountain-view pavilion and a fine wine cellar.
The Islington Hotel has eleven rooms in total, comprising two Garden deluxe rooms, four Garden rooms, and a Courtyard room with its own courtyard make glorious use of the garden with many rooms opening out through French doors to the rhododendron and azalea gardens. In the residence, the four bedrooms are sumptuously outfitted in fabulous fabrics, fine antiques and deeply comfortable Islington Angel beds that guests never wish to leave. Each room has a very distinctive design flourish, celebrating one of the many early Tasmanians who provided inspiration for the hotel.
The Islington Hotel features a country-style kitchen with an antique 10 seater dining table, two matching sideboards from where one will be able to partake of a home cooked breakfast of local goodies. Or at night have it set for your private dinner party catered for by the resident chef.
