The Tasman, A Luxury Collection Hotel, Hobart

The Tasman, part of Marriott’s Luxury Collection, has brought a new dimension of international hospitality to Hobart. Occupying a cluster of heritage buildings alongside a contemporary wing, the property creates a dialogue between Tasmania’s colonial past and its design-driven present.

The architecture is layered. Georgian sandstone structures, Art Deco flourishes and a sleek modern addition are connected by carefully considered interiors from design studio JPDC. Guest rooms highlight the original character of the buildings, with exposed stone walls, rich timbers and custom furnishings that celebrate Tasmanian craft. Contemporary suites in the Pavilion building offer expansive harbour views and clean, modern lines, providing variety within a single hotel.

Culinary identity is strong. Peppina, the signature restaurant led by Massimo Mele, blends Italian inspiration with Tasmanian produce, creating a dining room that is as much a local favourite as it is a guest amenity. Mary Mary, the hotel’s cocktail bar, has quickly become a city institution, curating rare spirits and stories within its moody brick-lined space.

Wellness and lifestyle offerings include a fitness centre and access to Hobart’s waterfront, markets and MONA, all easily reached from the hotel’s central location. Concierge services are designed to connect guests with Tasmania’s broader experiences, from wilderness excursions to vineyard visits.

Service is polished yet relaxed, reflecting both Marriott’s luxury standards and Tasmania’s approachable character. Staff balance attentiveness with warmth, ensuring that each stay feels curated but never over-staged.

The Tasman is more than a hotel; it is a cultural landmark that frames Hobart’s evolution into a global destination while staying rooted in its local fabric.
