Lenna of Hobart is at 20 Runnymede Street in Battery Point, the historic district beside Salamanca Place, a boutique property with 52 rooms. It has an on-site restaurant called Alexanders, a bar with a lobby fireplace, a terrace and a garden, plus free self parking, free Wi-Fi and air conditioning. Cooked-to-order breakfast is available for a surcharge. No pool or gym is listed. The hotel suits visitors who like heritage character and a quiet, residential feel but still want the market and waterfront on their doorstep.
Location and getting around
Salamanca Place is about a one-minute walk and the Saturday market a two-minute walk, while Brooke Street Pier, where the Mona ferry departs, is around seven minutes on foot. Constitution Dock and Franklin Wharf take about 12 minutes. Hobart Airport is roughly a 21-minute drive. The Battery Point streets nearby have cafes and small restaurants within a few minutes' walk, and the free parking is a real advantage for anyone hiring a car for Port Arthur or the east coast.
The rooms and the feel
There are seven room types, from king rooms with mountain, park or harbour views to king suites with harbour views, a family suite that sleeps four and a two-bedroom penthouse with harbour views. Standard king rooms are roughly 34 square metres, which is generous for the price class. The lobby fireplace and the garden give the hotel a homely feel, and the restaurant means you can eat in on a cold evening. Pets are not allowed except service animals, and the premises are smoke-free.
Who it suits and what to know: it is a strong mid-range to upper mid-range choice for couples, families who want the family suite, and travellers who value a walkable base with parking. Breakfast carries a surcharge, so check whether your rate includes it. Check-in runs from 2 pm to midnight, and after-hours check-in is not available, so tell the hotel if your flight lands late. If you want a pool or gym, choose another property. Ask for a harbour or park view room if the outlook matters to you.
