Our take
I would choose the Prince of Wales Hotel for a family stay in central Hobart where character matters as much as convenience. It is a heritage building with family rooms, a sun terrace, a restaurant and a bar with live music, rated 9 from 719 reviews. Short Beach and the Hobart Convention and Entertainment Centre are close by, but light sleepers should know the bar brings evening noise.
- ✓Take advantage of the central location to walk to nearby attractions like Short Beach and the Maritime Museum.
- ✓Enjoy an evening at the hotel's bar, especially when there's live music playing.
- ✓If you're travelling with family, consider booking one of the dedicated family rooms for extra comfort.

Why guests love itThe Prince of Wales Hotel is a heritage building in central Hobart, with family rooms, a sun terrace, a restaurant and a bar. Rated 9 from 719 reviews, it suits families who want character and a city location rather than a resort. Short Beach and the Hobart Convention and Entertainment Centre are close by. The bar has live music, so light sleepers should ask about a quieter room. Our editorial advice: use the sun terrace for a relaxed family meal.
