Do I need an excuse to spend time in my favourite place? Absolutely not. But will I use any excuse to show off how beautiful it is even in the cold weather, stay at my favourite hotel and indulge in a night of incredible food, wine and art while also working? Every. Damn. Time.
Thank you for the beautiful stay @macq01 and dinner @thehenryjones , you know very well I’ll be back!

Textures that beg to be touched. Light that feels just right.
This is what it feels like to rest, not just sleep, at Australia's first and only dedicated storytelling hotel.

Join us at The Story Bar for a “Colourful & Quirky” cocktail as telling as the stories that live inside our hotel. The aptly named Colourful & Quirky cocktail blends bright citrus and floral notes into a fragrant, botanical finish, crowned with a cloud-soft foam. Here, every sip feels like its own chapter, colourful, curious and a little bit mischievous. A little like Hobart’s own spirit.
