"A creative architectural mash-up in Hobart that unites an 1841 former hospital, a 1937 art-deco wing and a modern glass annex, this design-focused hotel celebrates local materials, artisans and history across distinct wings. Interiors reflect each building’s heritage—from restored fireplaces and sandstone accents to timber-inlaid ceilings—and highlight works by Tasmanian makers and First Nation artists, with standout spaces such as a St. David’s Park suite featuring a bespoke Tasmanian blackwood bathtub and locally crafted bath products." - Jennifer Flowers, Krisanne Fordham, Laura Dannen Redman
