Great location for Spirit of Tasmania. Pub next door with excellent meals, Bottle-O on other side. Incredibly helpful staff.

We stayed in the older section, so the room was a bit dated, beds were comfortable, everything else was OK.
Didn't like the parking, where it was every man for himself, no designated parking spots.
The room was a standard motel room, clean and tidy. Was a bit noisy early in the morning due to traffic and road works.

This stay at the Argosy we stayed in the newer section,
everything was very modern, two double beds was good.
Had a nice balcony overlooking the river, room was spacious, very clean and bathroom was heated.
Our only gripe was the parking, having to park so far from the unit was inconvenient.
Was perfect for us, as we came from Launceston to attend a dear friend’s birthday, so once we were there, we only had to walk a few metres to the function room. Would definitely stay there again
