2 Best Hotels in Launceston, Tasmania

Constructed from the remains of three 1840s buildings, this delightful B&B is full of whimsical touches. Antique furniture drawers might contain old-fashioned eyeglasses or books; an old turtle shell and a deer's head hang on the wall; and a Victrola and a four-poster canopy bed lend colonial charm.

History comes alive at this colonial complex made up of a converted stable, the former baker's cottage, and the old bakery. A loft above the stables is also available. All rooms reflect a colonial style and have lace curtains. One room in the old bakery was actually the oven.
