Peppers Silo Hotel - Forgot to take pics but grabbed this one from parking lot

Peppers Silo Hotel

(2 reviews)

Beautiful hotel converted from an old grain silo. While there is an add on building in the front,…read morethe silos are more prevalent in the back. You can really experience them in the rooms, with the rounded walls of exposed concrete. So cool. The rooms were spacious and we had a nice view of the river. Beds and pillows comfortable. We loved the shower. Two shower heads. Nice and hot. Shower had a door (no doors seem to be common in many places). Towels were super thick. We walked downtown once for breakfast which was about a 15-20 walk. We walked to the museum which was about the same. The start of the gorge trail near King's Bridge is about a mile walk. We did not pay for the underground parking and were able to find spots in the closest lot. They had a resident black lab which was fun to pet. They have restaurants but we did not try them. Housekeeping came daily. We loved this stay.

A new hotel located in a refurbished former grain silo near the river in Launceston, Tasmania…read more While we only stayed 1 night, I was wishing for a longer stay given the friendly staff, fantastic breakfast and clever, unique room. We were in a deluxe king, 710 which was such a cool room. Each of the former grain silo towers has been split in Half to form two very large rooms with curved concrete walls. They've also cut windows into the side with a beautiful view of the Tamar river. We enjoyed watching all tHe rowing club boats going past eArly in the day. Opposite the silo rooms is a standard wing with more traditional shaped rooms. Opened only since mid 2018, it stills feel new and certainly has all that you want as it relates to features like bedside power/USB ports, modern rain shower shower head, modern furnishings, comfy bed and pillows (sleep great!) lots of space and more. There's an on-site bar as well as a nice restaurant. Just off the lobby there's a beautiful crushed gravel walking track for short or long walks. It's even possible to follow it all the way to cataract gorge-45 min each way. I was also very impressed by the friendly service at the Front desk and restaurant. Speaking of food, the breakfast buffet is very substantial with cook to order eggs and pAncakes and much more. If you book breakfast when you check in it's only $AUD 22 vs 29 day of at the restaurant and well worth the price. Finally, the hotel has a resident black lab named Archy-and you can take him for walKs if you are missing your own pooch. Bottom line-it's all good. Highly recommended.
