I loved my stay at Sorell Barracks! I liked the self check-in. The room was gorgeous and there is info in the room about the history of the barracks. It's awesome staying at a historical site. The bed was very comfy and I had everything I needed. I didn't meet the hosts as I checked in later in the day and left early to catch a flight, but all the communication was welcoming and friendly and I knew I could reach out if I needed anything. It's an awesome area, nice and close to the airport. Would absolutely stay there again when I next return to Hobart.

The barrack have been tastefully renovated, the available space was of a good size. All the necessary facilities were provided with a toaster, kettle and sandwich maker in the kitchenette. The living space was clean, comfortable and tastefully decorated. access was easy, chocolates in the kitchen basket were a welcome treat upon our arrival. The bed was very comfortable. Plenty of off-street parking provided.
There was really nothing we didn't like and we would definitely stay there again. However, the entry stairs to our upstairs room, were quite steep and narrow which wasn't an issue for us, but could be for someone less steady on their feet. (There is ground floor accommodation available as well.)

Situated in a very quiet street, Sorrel Barracks is charming! We stayed 3 nights in the old supply store which is the stand alone building on the left end of the Barracks. The kitchen and bathroom were equipped with everything you need when on holidays, and the queen sized bed was very comfy. Sorrel is a close drive from the city, the beautiful village of Richmond, and is only a 10 minute drive from the airport. It was the perfect home base for day trips around the Hobart area. Would definitely recommend!
This wasn't a big issue, but there is no kitchen table in the room ( due to space). There is a side table, but this was where one of our suitcases sat, so the only tables we had were the ones outside. Fortunately, we had good weather so we ate outdoors, which was nice as the gardens are lovely!

If your looking for something a little different then the Sorrell Barracks are highly recommended. It is well restored 1840's building so does have a few features that may or not appeal but our family very much enjoyed our stay. The location is excellent, near the airport and wineries with Hobart just a short drive away. Sorrell has a good supermarket, bakery and coffee shop.
Nothing really if you accept that it is an old building. The stairs to the upper floor accommodation are very steep but not an issue if you take care and are reasonably active.

Very cosy and comfortable. The little mini kitchen was very useful. Loved the quaint and charming historical atmosphere and decor. The outside seating areas were lovely and what a handy location. Had everything needed for my partner and I for a short stay. Would recommend to my friends and family. Thank you. Alison and Charles
Perhaps some larger coffee mugs, oh and a sharp knife.😁

Lovely town that is super calm! With food options and 2 big supermarket. Room is cozy, place has fruit trees all around. Ok drive to hobart, about 20 mins. If you are new to driving, going to hobart, there is a traffic light on the highway nearer to hobart, just keep left if you are unsure- that is always green.

Breakfast wasn't included. A lot of thought given to the decor, especially pictures on the walls, very sweet crockery etc. It was absolutely beautiful to walk through the door & enjoy this special atmosphere. A fabulous stay for 1-2 days.
A silly thing really, but the shampoo erc bottles were placed very high & a bit hard to reach.

Our stay at Sorell Barracks was excellent. The room was comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. The location was also excellent, with easy walking distance to eateries and supermarkets and a very quiet area. It was a pleasure to stay in this historic building and will definitely book again when needed.
All good

We stayed in the cottage and although small, had everything we needed with a small kitchenette (microwave, bar fridge, crockery, and cutlery). Parking was easy and there were no stairs. Accessing the cottage was also easy and we were pleasantly surprised with a basket of some additional supplies. A lovely touch and very much appreciated. The cottage was clean, quaint and authentic and in a great location for us to access the Mt Maria Island experience the next day when all the local accommodation was booked out. The cottage was also within walking distance to Coles and an number of eateries. Excellent value for money for a night. Thank you.
The only minor issue we experienced was the size of the bed. With one of us being 6ft, it was tight, so if you're taller then the cottage may not be for you.
