Southern Lights Hotel

King-size beds, spacious rooms, modern bathrooms and views of the city or river are complemented by an award-winning restaurant in a motel-style hotel only a quarter of an hour’s drive from Hobart’s business district.

In the Standard Rooms (sixteen in total), between one and four can stay, with a few additions or changes to the bed configuration, your bathroom has a walk-in shower and the whole place is kept to the right temperature with a heat pump and air-conditioning system. A refrigerator, mini-bar, equipment for making that all-important cup of tea or coffee, an even more essential iron and ironing board, a television, free high-speed wireless internet and a direct-dial telephone are part of the deal in this modern, stylish room at Southern Lights Hotel.

The Deluxe Rooms, of which there are four, there is everything that a Standard includes plus a futon-style sofa, premium views of the water, remote-control air conditioning, and a kitchenette with a microwave oven and a toaster.

Parking is free for guests, there is the possibility of upping the occupancy rate by hiring an additional roll-out bed, a limited room service is on offer and Southern Lights Hotel has two function rooms: King View and Summerlea, which respectively seat 120 and 45, or can hold 200 and 100 standing.

It also means that all guests have somewhere for an award-winning dining experience without even having to leave the premises. Aura Cafe offers an a la carte menu for lunch and dinner daily except for public holidays, and there are comfortable lounges indoors and outdoors where you can enjoy a drink while basking in the sunlight.
