The
Grande Vue Private Hotel, your romantic, luxury, holiday
accommodation is located in historic
Battery
Point - one of oldest areas of
Hobart,
Tasmania and is
characterised by many original buildings, particularly in the
vicinity of Arthur Circus - where many original whalers' cottages are
still to be found. The Hotel is a short walking
distance to the famous Salamanca Market which meets on
Saturdays in Salamanca Place on the Hobart waterfront.
Constitution Dock is a little further and is the base for
the
Sydney Hobart yachting race - a world famous annual
event. This whole area is close to the Hobart CBD with
shops, many restaurants, cinemas and theatres. There are
several cruise boats available for harbour tours, trips to
the Cadbury chocolate factory or
Peppermint Bay down the
d'Entrecasteaux Channel. This stretch of water separates
Bruny Island from the mainland of Tasmania
and was first discovered by
Bruni d'Entrecasteax.
The Wrest Point Casino in Sandy Bay is a short distance away
as are the
Royal and
DSS yacht clubs
and the Sandy Bay Shopping Centre.
