Book the The Tasman with VIP Benefits

The Tasman brings the local character of Hobart to life, connecting the pioneering past to contemporary culture and captivating scenery, where guests are encouraged to explore the epicurean highlights of the city and wilderness of the island beyond.

The Tasman is a genuinely exceptional architectural experience that blends the site's historical legacy with a striking modern vision. Guests have a rare opportunity to experience three eras of design within the hotel, from walking the history-filled hallways of the original 1840s heritage building, admiring the understated luxury of the Art Deco building, or taking in the spectacular views of the Hobart waterfront from the glass ensconced Pavilion building.

Accommodation

Offering 152 unique rooms and suites, each highlights a distinct character and experience so that no stay is ever the same. Some of the highlight features are original artworks from local artists, warming fireplaces, and island baths. The Tasman offers Hobart's most spectacular suites, carefully designed to showcase the captivating architectural narrative. Signature suites include the David's Park Suite, boasting a soaring original 1840s ceiling and fireplace for a heritage-inspired stay. At the same time, The Aurora Suite is the pinnacle of modern luxury, revealing panoramic views across the Derwent River from an expansive entertaining terrace.

Dining

Peppina

Renowned Tasmanian native Chef Massimo Mele combines incredible seasonal produce and ingredients with the generosity and warmth of Italian hospitality at Peppina, The Tasman's signature restaurant. Named as a tribute to Massimo's Italian grandmother, Massimo celebrates his Italian heritage and experience to give Italian-inspired cuisine a local Tasmanian twist. An expansive light-filled atrium framed by a heritage sandstone border wall gives Peppina a strong sense of place within Hobart. The 190-seat restaurant hosts a lively open kitchen with a wood-fired oven and firepit and a separate 24-seat private dining room which takes up residence in a former State Government Survey and Lands printing room built-in 1862. Alongside Massimo, Head Chef Glenn Byrnes will present an ever-changing menu of seasonal pasta, locally sourced meats, seafood cooked on the grill, and a selection of antipasti.

Taking inspiration from Massimo's relationships with his farmers and producers, the wine list curated by Director of Food and Beverage Anthony Tran and Head Sommelier Michael Fisher will highlight wines of integrity from single-vineyard producers that focus on the quality of grapes rather than the work in the winery. While the wine list finds its spiritual home in Tasmania, the extensive range will feature benchmark wines by winemakers and grape-growers with Italian ancestry from across Australia and the many regions of Italy.

Deco Lounge

The understated elegance of The Deco Lounge invites guests to gather throughout the day in a refined, residential setting that spills out onto a terrace overlooking the happenings of Parliament Square. Take in locally sourced tea and roasted coffee, light seasonal delicacies paired with an extensive list of refreshments, or enjoy The Tasman signature high tea rituals.

Mary Mary

A portal to a world of fine drinking, Mary Mary takes its name from site and amplifies it to create an exceptional drinking destination. Hidden within the deep old walls of the original sandstone building, Mary Mary offers the most discerning guests and curious locals an old-world bar experience reimagined for modern times. Steeped in history and stories of days gone by, the cocktail bar takes its name from the building it resides, once Australia's first private hospital, St Marys, built-in 1847. The thoughtful and carefully curated drinks offering champions the bounty that Tasmania bestows and pairs this with the finest spirits and liquors of the island. Created by a world-renowned team of Australia's most awarded bar and spirits experts, Mary Mary is led by Head Bartender Ronán Kavanagh, who brings a spirit of discovery and a deep understanding of craftsmanship in spirits. The inviting and texturally rich interior reveals the original features of this historic building, once the strongroom of the hospital, and invokes a bygone era accompanied by the lingering scent of leather and the warmth emanating from the fireplaces.
