The Finish Line

Taking its name from the end point of the Sydney to Hobart yacht race, this boutique stay sits right by the Derwent River where the fleet sails home each summer. Once a corner store, it's been cleverly transformed into a stylish urban retreat with curated art, playful interiors, and plenty of light. Step outside and you're in one of Hobart's most historic suburbs, with Salamanca and the city an easy stroll away — but it's just as tempting to stay in with a good book or a glass of Tassie pinot on the deck.
