Moss Hotel

Moss Hotel is an intimate boutique property hidden within two converted mid 1800s warehouses on Salamanca Place, placing guests in the heart of one of Hobart’s most historic and vibrant precincts. The hotel has 41 rooms spread across two buildings, with original sandstone walls, heavy timber beams and other heritage features retained throughout.

The interiors draw heavily on Tasmania’s natural environment, with deep green finishes, planted light wells, locally sourced furniture and materials creating a contemporary contrast to the historic architecture. Rooms are individually configured according to the original buildings, with categories ranging from intimate Pods and Lofts to larger Grove rooms, including selected rooms with balconies overlooking Salamanca.

Moss deliberately operates differently from a traditional full service hotel. There is no onsite restaurant or bar, with the emphasis instead placed on the surrounding Salamanca neighbourhood. For travellers, this is one of the property’s strengths, with Salamanca Market, restaurants, bars, galleries, the waterfront and Battery Point immediately outside the hotel.

For a Tasmania golf holiday, Moss Hotel is particularly well suited to couples and independent travellers who want to combine golf with time in central Hobart. The leading courses around Seven Mile Beach are easily accessible, while evenings can be spent exploring Salamanca and Hobart’s waterfront without needing to drive. Popular golf courses near Moss Hotel include Kingston Beach, Royal Hobart, and Tasmania Golf Club.

Rather than extensive resort facilities, the appeal is location, heritage and a distinctly Tasmanian sense of place. For golfers who prioritise boutique accommodation and being immersed in Hobart between rounds, Moss provides an appealing alternative to the city’s larger luxury hotels.
