How to Select Your Stanley Accommodation
Stanley, and the Nortwest tip of Tasmania, is a fascinating place. The vistas out over Bass Strait show the Tasmanian coastline at its best, and the light is phenomenal. This is a wonderful location for the keen photographer - great colour, interesting subjects and plenty of contrast in a compact area - coastline, geologic features, seascapes, rainforest, waterfalls, historic buildings and ruins. The Nut at Stanley is the focal point for the region and Stanley itself is a great place to stay if you want to soak up the history of the area. Find out more information on Stanley.
Most of Stanley is built up around the port area, backing onto The Nut, so much of the accommodation does not have views of this feature. Staying in the Village of Stanley itself sacrifices the wider view for proximity and the chance to stay in one of the historic whalers cottages that have been converted into accommodations of varying standards.
The hotel with the best views out over Stanley is situated a few minutes drive from the village. If views are paramount, the Seaview Inn Stanley is the place to book. It overlooks the village of Stanley and gives wonderful views of The Nut. The restaurant at the Stanley Seaview Inn is also excellent, featuring fresh caught local crayfish whenever it is available.
While we are on the subject of views out over Stanley and The Nut, and if you want to combine real comfort with outlook, the upscale Horizon Deluxe Apartments Stanley are the way to go. There are only two units so you will be very wise to book early.
If you like authentic colonial style in a historic cabin refurbished to a high standard, Captain's Cottage Stanley, is a wonderful base in the heart of the village, within walking distance to restaurants, pubs and attractions. Full kitchen and laundry facilities make Captain's Cottage ideal for families. For a feel of life in the 1800's with the comforts of today, please book direct.
Touchwood Cottages Stanley are another colonial cottage option, as is Abbey's Cottage Stanley .
Just a 20 minute drive from Stanley, the township of Smithton is a local hub offering other hotel options. It is worth also checking Smithton Hotels and Accommodation.
Budget Motor Inn style accommodation is available at Wynyard , some 50 minutes drive back along the coast from Stanley, and there are a number of hotel, motel, apartment and Motor Inn accommodation options in Burnie, a 60 minute drive back to the east.
All in all, if you want to stay in Stanley, it is always wise to book in advance. Check through the options for Stanley hotels and accommodation carefully to be sure you select what suits your travel style..
