Salamanca Inn is at 10 Gladstone Street in Battery Point, an aparthotel with 65 units. It was built in 1988 and has three floors. Every room has a kitchenette with a stovetop and oven, cookware and a separate dining area, so it works well for longer stays and families. Facilities include an indoor pool, a hot tub, a gym, Birdsong Restaurant and a bar, with a buffet breakfast offered for a fee. The hotel has secured, covered self parking at a low daily rate, with height restrictions, and an electric car charging station. Pets are not allowed and the premises are smoke-free.
Location and getting around
Salamanca Place and the Saturday market are about two minutes on foot, Brooke Street Pier is around five minutes, and Constitution Dock and Franklin Wharf are about ten minutes away. Hobart Airport is roughly a 19-minute drive. Because it sits in Battery Point, the hotel has a village feel in the evenings while remaining close to the waterfront restaurants and galleries. The on-site parking makes it a good base for day trips to Port Arthur, Bruny Island or Mount Wellington.
The rooms and the feel
Suites range from a one-bedroom queen suite and king suites of around 43 square metres to two-bedroom and three-bedroom apartments that sleep five or six people. There are family apartments with separate bedrooms, an executive spa suite and accessible king suites. Because all rooms have kitchens, you can save on meals by cooking, and the laundry facilities help on longer trips. Extra beds and cribs are available for a fee. The style is practical and comfortable rather than boutique.
Who it suits and what to know: choose it for families, groups of friends and travellers staying several nights who value space, a kitchen and a pool. Breakfast is a paid buffet, and weekday and weekend serving times differ slightly, so check before you plan an early start. Check-in begins at 2 pm and check-out is by 11 am. A photo ID and a card may be required at check-in, and cash is not accepted for payment. Outdoor spaces such as balconies may not suit young children, so ask the hotel about your room type.
