wonderful location - so close to the harbour and Salamanca market as well as getting out to places like Mt Wellington and Richmond. The layout was really good - having 3 floors allowed us to have our own space and shared space and the kitchen/living area was lovely. Well equipped kitchen (aside from a slightly temperamental oven). The host was wonderful, providing lots of information and making check in easy. Good to have parking. Would stay again.

“Thank you, Fran, for your lovely review. We’re delighted you enjoyed the location and found the layout worked so well for your group.

We also appreciate your feedback regarding the oven and will look into this to ensure future guests have an even better experience. Thank you for being wonderful guests, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back to Cove Home anytime.”

This property is in a fantastic location and has everything you need for a group of people staying for a holiday. The host answers any questions instantly and has everything set up for a problem free stay. The property is just a few minutes walk to cafes, restaurants and shops and has parking which makes for an easy stay. We ate out every night but everything is there if you want to stay in and cook. Everything inside feels like a luxurious touch such as Sheridan towels and quality bedding and you feel like you're in a hotel. I recommend this property and will definitely be back for another stay. Thank you to the owners for such a quality home away from home. Thank you also for supplying umbrellas ! They were something we had not packed and yet needed so we were grateful for the added touch !

Many thanks for staying, and for your review Stephanie. So pleased our apartment was everything you needed for a wonderful stay. The benefits of being in the middle of the city make access to all areas and events so simple, but the unfortunate trade off is that of regular traffic and traffic noise. Wishing you a safe onward journey and would love to host you again if you’re ever back this way.

Perfect location for Dark Mofo – just a 5-minute walk to Dark Park and right by the wharf where all the action is! The rooms and beds were super comfortable, and the space was just right for the four of us, especially on our recovery days between festival events. Would absolutely stay here again.

Daniel was the best host. When we had to cancel our booking last year he was so understanding and accommodating. He was always prompt and clear with communication. When we finally made it to Hobart we had such a great stay. It’s such a comfy, warm and well furnished apartment. Really comfy beds, Necessities supplied in the bathroom and pantry, and board games to play. A lovely short walk to the markets and plenty of eateries close by. 10/10. Thanks :)

Great apartment in top location

Three of us had a wonderful ladies 4 day break in Hobart staying at this apartment. The place was exactly as described and depicted on the website. It was clean, beautifully furnished and had everything we needed. It was in a great location that allowed an easy stroll to the waterfront, restaurants and cafes. We also hired a car and used the secure parking available. I was extremely happy with the host's fast and helpful communication. The details for access to all amenities were given and even included photos with the directions as needed. I would happily recommend this apartment to anyone planning to visit Hobart!

Very comfortable apartment in a great location

We had a wonderful stay in this great apartment which couldn’t have a better location. We appreciated the free parking and the proximity to so much of what Hobart offers. The apartment is clean, comfortable and modern, well equipped and spacious so it was perfect for our group of five adults. It would also be good for even a couple as the area is split between levels so you can live in a smaller zone of the apartment or for a larger group everyone can have their own space to spread out as required.Daniel is a wonderful host, easy to reach and very helpful. We would definitely stay here again and look forward to returning to Hobart. It was really a home away from home! Thank you so much Dan and Jan!

About the host

Hosted by Daniel Tattersall

Host profile image
I live and work in Hobart and feel very fortunate to call this part of the world home. When I’m travelling and doing my own worldly exploring, I open up my place to respectful guests who want a comfortable base in the city.

I enjoy sharing local recommendations and helping visitors experience Hobart as a local would. I take pride in maintaining a welcoming home and appreciate guests who treat it with the same care.

Why they chose this property

I chose to live here because Hobart is such a picturesque and easy city to enjoy. I love being in central Hobart, where cafés, the waterfront and Salamanca are all within walking distance, yet the building itself remains quiet and residential.

What makes this property unique

This home is centrally located while remaining quiet and comfortable. As it’s my primary residence, it’s been furnished for everyday living rather than as a typical short-stay property.

The furnishings — including the beds and lounge — were chosen for comfort and quality. The aim is a relaxed, lived-in space where guests can feel at ease.
