Ross Motel
A friendly, four-star stay in a hotel equipped to a level you might expect in a major city centre, and in the peaceful setting of the attractive, historical town of Ross, a mere 45 minutes’ drive from Launceston Airport.
You have a choice of pillows to go with your five-star-quality bed (queen or twin), extra blankets as well as an electric blanket, and you can pay for a continental breakfast if you wish. Guests can use the motel’s laundry equipment, and each room has an iron, ironing board, ceiling fan, heater, hair dryer, television with Foxtel, easy chairs inside and a table and chair outdoors. If you want to rustle up something to eat, there’s a toaster, microwave oven, refrigerator, kettle plus a selection of crockery and cutlery for you to use. Ross Motel additionally provides you with free wireless internet.
Parking, even for vehicles the size of an RV, is free and as well as the kind of services you would expect from a well run motel such as luggage storage and daily housekeeping, you can also take advantage of express check-in. This family-friendly, non-smoking hotel can provide cribs and extra rollaway beds, and even has a lazy river among its attractions, plus a garden with a terrace.
The best known places of interest in Ross are quite close to Ross Motel, such as the famous Ross Bridge, Tasmanian Wool Centre and, for those interested in what happened to the women involved in the days of the convict settlements, the Ross Female Factory is well worth a visit. The Ross Visitor Information Centre can provide more suggestions, and there are also opportunities locally for golf, canoeing, hiking, cycling and eco tours.
This family-friendly motel is located on the riverwalk.
This smoke-free motel features a lazy river, a seasonal outdoor pool, and laundry facilities. Self parking is free. Additionally, express check-out, a garden, and barbecue grills are onsite.
Housekeeping is available once per stay.
The best in Ross. We called into the Motel on the off-chance of there being a room available for three nights – there was at AUD120 per night. The room or rather cabin is a nice size with a wet-room style bathroom, ideal for a disabled traveller like me. The owner was very helpful and found me a stool to use in the shower – an essential if you have only one leg! The property is fully licenced and prices of wine and beer are very competitive.
What a little gem. We stayed here 1 night on our way to Launceston. What a lovely quaint motel. The staff were so friendly and helpful and we were within walking distance to everything. The motel rooms were clean and very well appointed, the bed was very comfortable. The grounds are very well maintained and a pleasure to sit and look at while enjoying your morning coffee. The grounds are non smoking but benches are set up along the river across the road so we wandered out there with our coffee/drinks and enjoyed the view. Would definitely recommend a stay here on your travels.
