The Shipwrights Arms
Located in Battery Point on the edge of Hobart, the hotel has a friendly atmosphere, a restaurant, a bar and a range of accommodation options that include shared or en-suite bathrooms so, whatever your budget, there should be something for you.
Rooms with shared facilities (separately for men and women) have heating and, in most cases, views of Battery Point or Mount Wellington. The en-suite rooms have views of the Derwent River, a flat-screen television, tea and coffee-making equipment, and air conditioning which you can control yourself. One additional en-suite room is adapted for use by disabled guests, with a larger bathroom and views of Mount Wellington and Battery Point. All rooms have double beds and internet access. Guests at Shipwrights Arms Hotel may obtain a display pass for parking at the property.
When you get hungry, The Shippies, as the hotel is locally known, has a restaurant for which advance booking is essential, given its popularity. As well as some fine seafood dishes, there are children’s options, steaks, salads and an extensive desert menu. The hotel bar also has an award-winning bistro, and as well as enjoying the friendly company of the locals, you might have the chance to meet a participant of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race as it passes. There is even a collection of race memorabilia proudly on display.
Battery Point, where Shipwrights Arms Hotel is located, sits just to the south of the CBD (Central Business District). There are a number of historic walks in the area, and it does not take long to find such well-known attractions as Salamanca Market. If you take a walk along the main street, Hampden Road, you will find gift shops, cafes and even an bakery.
