Novotel Devonport
Harbour-side comfort by the Devonport Marina
About this stay
Novotel Devonport sits close to the Devonport Marina and the working stretch of the Mersey River, putting the port's daily rhythm within easy walking distance rather than at a remove. Family rooms come with air-conditioning, private bathrooms and modern amenities including a work desk and minibar, and the on-site restaurant serves Chinese, Malaysian, Singaporean, Thai, Vietnamese and Asian cuisines for guests who would rather stay in than head into the CBD. A fitness centre covers the wellness side, and paid private parking with an electric vehicle charging point suits road-trippers running a longer Tasmanian loop. East Devonport Beach sits 1.7 kilometres away and Devonport Airport around 9 kilometres, keeping the harbour position practical for both driving and flying arrivals.

Our take
Travellers staying here find a genuinely convenient middle ground between Devonport's beachfront and CBD options, close enough to the Devonport Marina for an evening walk, near enough to the airport and East Devonport Beach for day-to-day logistics. Families and couples timing a Spirit of Tasmania crossing get the most from the harbour position and fitness centre. Those chasing a quiet beachfront outlook rather than a working port view should look toward Mersey Bluff instead, since evenings here carry genuine harbour activity rather than coastal calm.
- ✓Ask for a river-facing room if the marina view matters, not every category looks out over the water.
- ✓Walk to the Devonport Marina in the evening rather than driving, the port traffic is worth watching up close.
- ✓Confirm the EV charging point is free when you arrive if you are running an electric vehicle on a longer loop.

Why guests love itTravellers staying here after a long day on the north coast find the short walk to the Devonport Marina the standout feature, watching ferry and fishing traffic move along the Mersey rather than a static hotel view. The on-site restaurant's range of Asian cuisines covers a night when nobody wants to drive back into the CBD, and the fitness centre earns real use after a day spent mostly behind the wheel touring Tasmania's north coast.
