Decent place for location close to the spirit of Tasmania. The place does look a bit dated but good for a short stay and money value.

It suited my purpose of staying overnight before a morning sail on the Ferry. The food that I had brought to my room was of very high standard. It's a pub with accommodation.

Cheap Saturday night accommodation for spirit of Tasmania ferry - pub with parties on! Room fine, even a full bath - kitchen smells floating upstairs. THE FORMBY HOTEL is now known as THE CENTRAL!

I didn't like the curtains and the room lets in a lot of noise through the windows.
Napoleon, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Hotel ideally situated for stopping overnight when arriving late on the ferry, rooms all upstairs but comfortable, a fair bit of noise especially from other guests talking loudly when heading to their rooms and when congregating in the common room. Reasonably priced, excellent food in the restaurant.
