Devonport Hotels

General Information

Tasmania has a feral, exotic allure. Home to only 500,000 people, almost half of whom live in the capital of Hobart, the island offers dramatic biodiversity and wilderness to explore. With close to 40% of Tasmania under national or UNESCO World Heritage protection, the island is a natural magnet for eco and adventure tourism.

A short flight from Melbourne makes Devonport a suitable gateway to the rest of Tasmania. Just three hours drive from Hobart and less than one hour from Launceston, the small town at the mouth of the Mersey River is convenient and full of charm. Notable points of interest include the Tiagarra Aboriginal Centre, retro-pioneer Don Village, Maritime Museum and Devonport Art Gallery. Above all else however, Devonport is a quiet community and rest stop, where visitors mingle on their way to and from other parts of Tasmania.
