Launceston is often described as the ‘gateway to Tasmania’, as it offers visitors the chance to experience the island’s incredible natural, historical and cultural landmarks right on its doorstep. This modern and thriving city also boasts an incredible selection of bars and restaurants - all stocked with Tasmania’s unique cool-climate wine - as well as an array of historic landmarks and architecture. Nature lovers will also find they don’t need to travel far to experience some of the region’s incredible panoramas, showcasing Tasmania’s diverse ecosystem that is unlike any other in the world.
Tasmania is an extremely popular tourist destination, so there’s certainly no shortage of great places to stay in Launceston. Whilst the city offers every format of accommodation imaginable, those looking to make an extended stay may find they are best suited to serviced apartments. These properties offer many of the benefits of a hotel, such as room cleaning and reception, but also offer the privacy and convenience of your own private space. Full kitchen facilities also make these properties ideal for those looking to self-cater. Whatever the reason for your visit, we can ensure you get the right accommodation to get the most from your trip.
First and foremost, Launceston is famous for its culinary delights - making the most of local produce to ensure that the city’s many restaurants and cafes offer a distinctly provincial flavour. Visitors will also find a night on the town is one of the best ways to sample the incredible dining experiences on offer, as well as take in the city’s vibrant and welcoming atmosphere.
The city also offers plenty of opportunities to learn about the history of Tasmania - both in terms of its former role as a colonial settlement as well as its indigenous heritage.

Visitors are also able to enjoy tours of the Tamar Valley vineyards in the summer months or enjoy a cruise along the river itself.
