Myself and 2 girlfriends stayed in a 3 bedroom villa. The Villa was nice, comfortable and had everything you need... although some Austar would be good. The beds were comfy and there were 2 bathrooms which you definately need for 3 women, lol. My only complaint is that the heating is a little stingy. There is an electric wall heater... More

Second stay here now, this time for leisure, perfect location for exploring the city on foot (hire car also made it ideal base for Tamar day trip). From memory, room seemed refurbished since last stay 18 months back and very clean. Boutique feel to this place and excellent service (happy to spend time assisting with driving itinerary/ sites to see... More

  An awful experience at Elphin Villas in Launceston. I've made a booking via BOOKING.COM of 2 bedroom suite for 4 person with confirmation that confirmed the rate at $150 however we were told $150 is for 2 person to stay in a 2 bedrooms suite so $60 more has to be charged for extra 2 person upon check in. I... More

our first time to tasmania and the day spoiled by this hotel. We booked thru an online agent which quoted us a wrong room rate. Upon checking in, the receptionist Cathy was horribly rude and judgemental. I made the booking for four but didn't know why the online agent quoted a price for two. The hotel wanted us to pay...

Very good value for money. Across the road from a 24hour Kmart and a large supermarket open to midnight. No noise from there carries which is good. We had a two bedroom apartment which was clean with parking available right out the front. Came with kitchenette. Thoughtfully placed in the fridge was a pitcher of cold water and ice ready... More

Recently stayed two nights in a standard motel suite and used it as a base to explore the wine trail through the Tamar Valley and look around Launceston itself. The room had the basic requirements for overnight accommodation, was clean & quiet at night. Elphin Villas is in close proximity to a large supermarket complex, parks etc and gives easy... More

Upon arrival to the Elphin Villas we noticed the great location. Right next to central park. This is an amazing park for the kids. However, when we opened the door to the rooms it had a smell of damp. Our room looked very clean and tidy but the smell was a bit off putting. The units are of a decent... More

A well located motel that was both clean and good value for money. We only stayed the one night, but the staff were welcoming and helpful. The rooms were of comfortable size, but the beds were a bit ownky to sleep on. It is walking distance from a big shopping centre so that made it easy to get supplies, dinner,... More

Elphin Villas is in an area that is close to shops and close to the centre of Launceston.
