"Twelve kilometres north of Hobart's city centre, MONA is burrowed into the Triassic sandstone of a peninsula jutting into the Derwent River. Arrayed across three underground levels, the $75-million museum created by local philanthropist-owner David Walsh mixes ancient antiquities among contemporary artworks. It's sexy, provocative, disturbing and deeply engaging – don't miss it.To get here, catch the MONA ferry or MONA Roma shuttle bus from Hobart’s Brooke St Pier."
"Next, make your way to the famous MONA (Museum of Old & New Art), a unique interactive museum that is sure to leave an impression with some downright crazy exhibitions including an entire wall of 100+ uniquely shaped vaginas. Allow at least 2 hours. Not for the vaginas, but for the whole museum."
"Australia's largest privately funded museum is home to a diverse array of exhibits from Tasmanian millionaire David Walsh's private collection…"
"Escape the madness of Salamanca Place for the inspired lunacy of Preachers, a student hang-out that happens to serve some of Australia’s best ales and ciders. You’ll find 17 great beers on tap here, with names such as 4 Pines, Mountain Goat, Hobgoblin, Stone & Wood and White Rabbit on the list. Since Preachers was launched by Hobart locals, Chris Cooper and Brett Allchin, to promote Tasmanian craft beer, the bar does not serve any mainstream options."
"It may be a casual bar-restaurant vibe, but Preachers is a Hobart institution and rightfully deserves its place on a ‘best eats’ list. Preachers is a backyard type of affair (quite literally) and does some of the most mouth-watering salads, burgers, and fries in town. Open nightly with a fun and care-free al fresco and an on-trend atmosphere, Preachers makes for a great mid-week dinner or casual dinner date spot."
"Restaurant of Preachers is considered by many as a Hobart institution and best cheap eats Hobart offers to younger generation. This institution, without a doubt, should be on your list of restaurants. Preachers is a backyard restaurant that serves most delicious salads, burgers as well as fries in town."
"As far as streets go, Post St is titchy (40m, tops), but the buzzy, conversation-filled bar here sure is sociable. The deck out the front is the place to be, Hobart's cold harbour almost within reach (yes, there..."
"Offering two very different, yet equally majestic outlooks, Grand Chancellor Hotel is ideal for soaking up the best of Hobart. Large-windowed rooms with views of both the mountains and harbour give guests outlooks of Salamanca Market, Hobart’s inner city or the distant mountain ranges. The property offers basic and superior room options, giving guests a range of affordable and luxurious accommodation."
"Perched neatly on Hobart’s waterfront, Hotel Grand Chancellor offers some of the most spectacular views in the city. The indoor rooftop pool has the best vantage point, where you can indulge in a skyline swim. Like the light-filled lobby, rooms are bright and welcoming, with mahogany headboards and views across to Mount Wellington."
"The Grand Chancellor Hotel is one of the best places to stay in Hobart because it’s close to everything. Set at the heart of the city, this hotel allows for easy access to restaurants, shops, cafes, museums and so much more. Guests can enjoy relaxing and spacious rooms, an indoor swimming pool, and an in-house restaurant."
"IXL Long Bar is the perfect place to escape to when in search of creative cocktails in a contemporary and cultured setting. Part of the renowned The Henry Jones ‘art hotel’, the bar is suitably stylish, attracting a cool clientele who sip on curious concoctions made by award-winning mixologists.

"Prop yourself at the glowing bar at the Henry Jones Art Hotel and check out Hobart’s fashionistas over a honey porter. If there are no spare stools at the bar, flop on to the leather couches in the hotel lobby...."
"Old Hobart meets new inside Henry Jones Art Hotel, where IXL Long Bar resides. Here, heritage architecture meets novel cocktails inside the historical jam factory on Hobart’s waterfront."
"The relaxed and friendly nightclub is the home of cheap drinks and cruisey vibes. With 8-ball tables and chalkboards you can actually draw on, your two left feet won’t prevent you from having a good time. The bartenders are known around town as some of the best in the business – make sure you order the local special."
"Enjoying the autumn sun, coupled with a delightful coffee and patisserie in hand is one of the highlights of living in Hobart. We are reminiscing on our recent trip to Little Missy Patisserie, where we were welcomed into this family business with the upmost hospitality. Chatting with owner Oonagh, and team member Denise, we got the opportunity to get a taste of the goodies that the cafe that has been providing since 2014."
"Your best buddy may be about to embark on the adventure of a lifetime with his soul mate, but that doesn’t mean he’s ready to wave goodbye to the bachelor life just yet. Let your Buck channel his inner wild streak at the place where the young, hip Hobart locals let their hair down. Ivory Lounge Bar opens its doors from 10pm every Friday and Saturday nightl, and the house, tech, tropic and afro beats pump until the early hours of the morning."
"For casual pizzas, tapas and drinks, Cargo has a great vibe on the Salamanca strip that always seems to be buzzing with nightlife!. I would however avoid this place on a Friday or Saturday night as you can wait up to 90 minutes for food and a table (as we did) and although the food is good, it certainly isn’t worth that long a wait!. Best for: Casual drinks & tapas"
"Just a few steps from Hobart’s docks, the sandstone exterior of the Customs House Hotel makes way for an array of unpretentious rooms. Downstairs, you’ll find a lively restaurant – be sure to sample the Tasmanian scallops and freshly caught salmon. When you’re feeling parched, head next door to try a selection of Tasmanian wines, beers and whiskies from Derwent Bar."
