We had a great room with views over Launceston. Balmoral in a very handy position, close to the CBD. The room was clean and had all amenities, including microwave and plates / cutlery. We enjoyed the continental breakfast with lovely fruit. The Hotel Manager was welcoming and helpful with knowledge of the best local restaurants.
