It is often lazy journalism to describe a destination as being a “well-kept secret” but in the case of Hobart’s lovely Lenna Hotel it is true.
Tucked away in Battery Point - but just a short stroll to the bars and restaurants of Salamanca - family operated Lenna is hugely popular with regular guests.
It strikes just the right balance. The rooms are upbeat with modern facilities while the public areas have a country manor house vibe.
With several new hotels in Hobart - and more on the way - Lenna operates in a competitive environment. Its two- and three-bedroom penthouse apartments are extremely popular with well-heeled visitors.
I particularly like the staff; they are well-trained and helpful with natural charm.
There is old-school hospitality here: 24-hour reception, complimentary wifi and free on-site parking; something of a rarity in Hobart.
There is an on-site restaurant, Alexanders, room service the cosy Chandelier Lounge Bar, where you can sip on Lenna Gin and Battery Point Distillery Whisky, crafted in the adjacent micro distillery.
Rooms feature either mountain or harbour views and the CBD is just a pleasant stroll away.
The older section of the hotel has many historic nooks and crannies and there are some lovely gardens in which to chill out with a glass of Tasmanian wine.
