The state’s capital, Hobart, offers this uniqueness, concentrated and distilled for your pleasure. Nestled along the River Derwent in the southeast of the island, here you’ll get to experience the raw beauty, fascinating history and vibrant culture of Australia’s southernmost state.
While the weather might be a little chillier down here, the welcomes are particularly warm. And between the views of kunanyi / Mount Wellington, the quirkiness of the Mona Museum and the endless opportunities to indulge, you won’t be short of things to do down south.

Places to see
What are Hobart’s must-see attractions?
Mona: Hobart’s most famous attraction, Mona is a unique and often controversial gallery that pushes the boundaries of contemporary art. Located beneath the earth of the Moorilla Winery, no words will do the experience justice – you need to see it to believe it.
kunanyi / Mount Wellington: Not only does the imposing Mount Wellington offer visitors the most spectacular views of Hobart, it’s also the best place for outdoor activity, with hiking, cycling and rock climbing in generous supply.
Salamanca Market: If you want to pick up something quintessentially Tasmanian, from a bushel of crisp apples or a beautiful piece of timberwork, the Sunday Salamanca Market is the place to shop.
Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens: Established in 1818, this is the second oldest botanical garden in Australia (Sydney’s was created just two years prior). The King’s Lomatia, a native Tasmanian plant, is particularly impressive.
Cascade Brewery: Feeling thirsty? Made from the purest Tasmanian mountain water, the tipples offered at the majestic Cascade Brewery are sure to hit the spot.
Find the right hotel
What is the best area to stay in Hobart?
The CBD: The heart of the action, Hobart’s CBD is centred on Salamanca Place – ground zero for drinks, food and nightlife in the Tasmanian capital. A wealth of museums are found around Constitution Dock, while Elizabeth Street Mall provides retail therapy.
North Hobart: Directly north of the CBD you’ll enter the more tranquil area of North Hobart. Elizabeth Street continues on from the city, forming a miniature version of Melbourne’s restaurant-laden Lygon Street once it gets to this part of town.
Battery Point: Named after the battery of guns that served as Hobart’s coastal defence system from 1818, Battery Point is a deeply historic part of town to the south of Salamanca Place.
Glebe: Wedged between the CBD and the Queen’s Domain, the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens and the Hobart Aquatic Centre, Glebe is a small suburb that is perfectly placed for tourists who are hoping to explore the city.
What are Hobart’s best hotels for solo travellers?
Perfectly private and business friendly, these hotels also offer ample opportunities to socialise should you want them.

Are you after a hotel that you don’t really need to leave? Between parking, Wi-Fi, bars, pools, gyms and entertainment, The Henry Jones Art Hotel, Salamanca Inn and The Old Woolstore Apartment Hotel provide an amazing in-house experience.
Getting around
What is the best way to get around Hobart?
Public transport
The Hobart public transport system is exclusively made up of buses. Because Hobart is a small city with a low population density, bus routes are often infrequent and indirect, and public transport is unpopular as a result. Services are available – you can either buy a ticket on board or use a prepaid Greencard.
Private transport
Besides car hire, rideshare apps are a great choice in Hobart. Uber is available in Hobart, or you can hail a local cab. Always ensure that taxis are legitimate before hopping in.
