Arthouse Hostel

"Arthouse Hostel is a good hostel for either longer or shorter stays in Launceston. The style is uncommon -- the building is registered as a Heritage Building and the furniture inside is a mix of old different styles. But it has been renovated, and everything is clean. It is pretty quiet. The Location The hostel is well located -- it's easy to find. Cross the bridge on Tamar Street and turn left at the roundabout. You can park directly in the street.

Launceston South
"No meals are provided so I don't know about the food, but the kitchen was fine. The manager is a bit eccentric, but I got on okay with him. There's lots of room. The showers were six minutes for ten cents. I like long showers, so it cost me 30 cents. The bathrooms were clean when I was there. The place was not too bad all around, really. :) The managers were very helpful." … "If you're a serious backpacker you'll get on fine here. It's a bit grubby but it's still a cheap bed. If you ask the owner (Douglas) any question he will tell you...  more »

Launceston Travel Tips & Suggestions

Launceston is right next to Cataract Gorge, a 150m cut into the rock with the river at the bottom. Literally 10 minutes walk from the city centre and you're in the heart of nature. The city has an adequate bus system during the week, based at St John Street. Always call taxis from payphones instead of mobiles as the numbers otherwise go back to Hobart! Some company runs a $35 Tamar River cruise which is worth checking out. All in all I'd say Launceston is a much nicer, more relaxed city than Hobart and with no shortage of things to see and do. I used Launceston as a start/stop point for the Under Down Under tour also. — Anonymous
