Great overnight stay for catching the ferry. Supplied plates, bowls, cutlery and microwave if you want to do a quick self catered breakfast before you leave. A little bit noisy but that was our neighbours not the hotel's fault. Dinner was great and so conveniently close. Overall I would recommend.

Great Value for Money

The Argosy was excellent value for money. It was clean, comfortable & very convenient to catch the Spirit of Tasmania ferry, early the next morning. The hotel / bistro were next door so very handy if you don't want to drive anywhere.
