"The Islington is lavishly but tastefully decorated with fine artworks and antiques, its contemporary extension (with soaring glass walls and ceilings and views of Mount Wellington) blending beautifully with the original 1847 Regency-style building (one of the first in Hobart’s “dress circle” area)"
"While the location is unassuming - a short drive from Hobart's city centre along a quiet road that appears entirely residential - the mansion itself is so cozy and enticing that it is genuinely difficult to leave"
"At the top of Hobart's accommodation tree, classy Islington effortlessly merges heritage architecture with antique furniture, contemporary art and a glorious garden"
"The inn doesn't normally serve dinner, but arrangements can be made with the chef for an intimate evening in one of three public lounges: the Library (naturally crammed with books), the Morning Room or the Rose Room (with Oriental art, furniture and hot red tones)"
