Popped into this pub twice during my time in Launceston and Aiden who served me was amazing. As someone who works in the Sydney hospitality industry I can say from experience he's an amazing asset to this venue. What a lovely guy

There was no one to contact and we couldn't check in and we couldn't get a refund. We looked for another hotel that day. Please do not book this hotel.

Very close to Launceston CBD and Cataract Gorge, however that is where the positives end. The main light does not work, and by the time we realised, the pub was already closed, and nobody answered the phone number provided. The night we stayed, there was a power outage, and there was no communication from the hotel whether the outage was only in the hotel or the whole area. We contacted Agoda and even they couldn't get in contact with the property. This should not happen. Guests should never be left with no support.
The room that was provided is not the same as the picture on the internet. Only some rooms have been renovated and most of the rooms are still unrenovated.
When the pub is closed, the only entrance is from the front, meaning when you park your car, you have to walk around the block to get to the accommodation.

You get what you pay for. 70s, 80s style house. Room is maintained well, noise can be an issue with poor sound insulation, lucky no psychos the night we stayed. Everything is super simple. Bring your own hair dryer.

Generous meals, I couldn't eat it all.

Read the reviews of competitors and booked TRC as it just had the edge. Not sure what benchmarks other reviewers had but was astounded a) by the food! Schnitty bloody fantastic and 10 x better than the NSW clubs schnitty of the year award! Staff exceptional ( team of 4 )all very welcoming, as was my early arrival reception, happy, friendly genuinely helpful offered suggestions to help me bumble my way through. Really good community vibe in the bar I'm not a footy fan but everyone seemed to be having a good time and ( a rarity) I didn't feel like a " stranger in our midst". Top marks for food in a pub in Australia ( been here since 1993- travelled around Oz twice and visited a lot of pubs! ) Accommodation a little dated but very neat and clean. Yes it is cold it's very near the bloody sea and it is Tasmania for gods sake'! Value for money, get over it, wear socks and a hat like they used to in the good old days! Highly recommend and hope to come again.

the rooms in this hotel had extremely thin walls, and as a result we got no sleep because we could hear EVERYTHING. The carpets were stained and the doonas on the bed had no covers on them. While the price and location was good, I would not stay here again. If you can afford to pay a bit more, I would recommend going elsewhere.

Friendly service, nice atmosphere. Parmas were nice and reasonably priced, but I think the Salt & Pepper Squid was overpriced for what was served. Jugs of soft drink had more ice than drink.

We had one meal at this venue & we did not stay here, so I can not comment on the accommodation.

The food was terrible. Sounded good on the menu, but highly disappointed. As I was only in launceston for 2 nights, I really wished I'd tried somewhere better. 1 good thing is I didn't get food poisoning.

Dined here for lunch. Meals were delicious. Staff were excellent offering wonderful customer service.

Customer service was great .
Ryan the manager was soo helpful and make sure everything is ok. The place Was clean and tidy . And it's a very nice place.

This place is cheap for a reason the rooms are terrible very uncomfortable, cold and bed is hard and springy, very echo, terrible place don't recommend staying

If you can afford to stay somewhere else, please do. The accommodation is cheap for a reason. It is totally gross. The bedding is stained and doona insert didn't have a cover. Walls are paper thin and it's very noisy, doors constantly banging. They seem to group guest rooms together which doesn't help with the noise. And the cleaning staff in the morning were loud too. The shared female bathroom has 1 shower with the shower down low in the wall. Made things a bit uncomfortable. Almost had to do the limbo to have a shower.
There are also no staff to answer phones before 12pm, so be aware.
Hot water system was amazing!

Super friendly staff with old fashioned service. Old fashioned pub rooms, some with shared bathroom so don't expect the Ritz. Rooms were clean and had everything I needed. And there's a pub downstairs with decent food. Pub shuts quite early so no noise. 3 thumbs up.

I desperately required a liquid refresh as well as charge my phone after getting lost on foot at night time. The operators welcomed my patronage with such pleasantries that I shall return. Thank you.

Lovely staff, nice atmosphere, delicious lunch menu, reasonably priced.

We booked for the Easter weekend and it's nearby the wedding venue and reception we were attending. We received a call a few days later, was told there will be no Reception nor staff working on Good Friday when we need to check in. Fortunately hubby flew in a day early to catch up with a mate so he got the keys on Thursday arvo.
The room is smaller then expected and the doona is just sandwiched between two flat sheets, no doona cover. The toilet paper was as thin as a feather so you need to use 2/3 of a roll in a day per person. The side tables looked older than 2 decades (peeling and unstable) and one of the bedside lamps did not work.
It was nice to have more than enough toiletries for our 3 night stay and clothes hangers in the old wardrobe to hang our formal wear.
When we checked out on Easter Monday, there was no staff/no reception as well, so we just left the keys in the door lock.
With CoVid lockdowns still occuring, other hotels did not give customers' money back if they weren't able to get into Tasmania. With the inexpensive rate at the TRC, it suited our purposes at the time - a place to sleep, shower and secure our belongings - and if we weren't able to fly to Tassie, it wouldn't have been a huge financial loss if we couldn't get our money back from the hotel. But this wouldn't normally be in our top 10 options of accommodation to book.

Service is quick and friendly & beer is cold and fresh. Need to come back to try the food, could be 5 stars.

Value for money though walls are not very sound-proof and a bit warm in the room as there is no A/C. Communal area has mini bar though no sink to wash or leave used dishes. The worst part is that no one would reply your messages or queries online and they have limited staffed hours.
