We love the location and we love the retro feel. It was special to be upgraded to a river view on this visit. And the ducks welcomed us through the glass doors - so cute! Great motel facilities, clean and comfortable.

Riverfront Motel & Villas is set on the banks of the River Derwent, just 10 minutes drive North of Hobart CBD. Take a stroll along 'The River Walk' and make the most of our unique location. You're also welcome to sample some of our produce which we grow in our Vegetable Garden.
The Northern suburbs of Hobart is a hub of activity! MONA, My State Bank Arena (previously called Derwent Entertainment Centre), Bonorong Park and the GASP! board walk are all within a short distance from Riverfront Motel & Villas. It's also a great spot to base your touring, with easy access to the main arterial roads.
