The Sebel Launceston

Launceston


As far as Launceston hotels go, the reliable Sebel is a big 'un (five storeys and half a city block) – plenty of space for suites and two-bedroom apartments with king-sized beds, work desks and small kitchenettes (some also have a laundry). There's an on-site restaurant/bar (being vamped-up when we visited), a gym and parking.
