Parklane Motel

The receptionist helped us get the room we wanted with a view. Our room, (room27), had a great view and while the decor was classic we found it to be very comfortable. The heater and electric blankets are great.

Great views from our room, spacious and comfortable, close to the park and town, very friendly reception.

The good-
Central location- walk to town centre, Coles, aquatic centre, bars
Nearby City Park- monkeys, ducks & playground
Self contained allows shopping/cooking
Comfortable beds
Adequate heating
Guest laundry with washing machine & dryer, wash 2 x $1, dry 2 x $1

The not so good-
Washing machine in laundry does not drain/spin- requires an additional $2 to run drain/spin cycle before drying. $6 a load total
Room not serviced for first 4 days of 7 day stay. Had to dispose of own garbage in neighbouring apartments dumpster. Difficult to manage when eating pizza/cereal etc with larger rubbish items & boxes/bottles. Eventually attended reception & requested room to be serviced as we had run out of toilet paper, coffee etc, & management informed we were supposed to ask for that. Daily vacuum/rubbish/towels is normally included in such motels so this was confusing to us.
TV only had 1 working channel. All others showed a blue screen & no vision.
No fan or cooler of any kind in room.

Overall a lovely stay, & a beautiful city, thanks for having us, we will be back!

This room had all that we needed for a couple of days in Launceston. The internet worked well, we could walk through most of the city very easily, and we loved being opposite the park which was just beautiful. The parking was good, and it was handy for travelling north and east on day trips.

We are highly impressed and very satisfied with the level of cleanliness at this Motel. We had everything we needed for staying with our two young kids. We found the rooms to be just right for our stay. The caretaker Laxmi is absolutely amazing, with very professional and easy-going service.
We appreciate our great stay here, and will be back soon.

I love, love this place.

In contrast to the opinions of others, please, please, please do not 'renovate' and change the character of the rooms or the building. These apartments will sell for a premium in inner city Melbourne and are all the rage, because of aesthetic, relatively lower body corporation fees, and the quality of the build and interior fitouts (they just don't build them like they used to). So, conservation is important in my eyes and all future efforts should be dedicated to maintainence / upkeep / restoration.

I definitely intend to return!

Bits of constructive feedback -

1) This is rather common across all hotels / motels, but there are no recycling bins. I would love to see some change in this space.

2) Because of microplastics, I would personally prefer steel kettle boilers.

Classic 1960's build. Great value and clean comfortable rooms. Microwave which is always important. Heating/cooling is not modern or ducted but more than adequately catered to. On site manager, Anita, is amazing. When my room's hot water service presented some problems, I was able to contact Anita after hours. Her prompt, courteous manner, her communication and professionalism are beyond question. With complete confidence and total empathy, Anita happily resolved the matter (I was able to take another room) and the whole experience made me feel I was in very good hands. A three star hotel, five star service! I look forward to my next visit. Thank you Anita! :-)

Close to town. Great staff, clean rooms good price perfect

Clean an comfy everything you need most of all staff super nice

Great location infront of City Park and walking distance from CBD. Clean, tidy inside and out. Staff friendly and available to answer questions. Plenty of linen and towels. Simple yet met all our needs. Also great block out curtains.

Family friendly. Solid and cosy apartments. Very clean, right in the middle of the city. Amazing service. I enjoyed my long stay at rhe apartments. Amazing Anita is a great manager. Highly recommended.

Well it was great. Booked two rooms with Parklane. Both were clean and nicely maintained. Very affordable place to stay. Thanks a lot guys 👍👍…

The staff are very friendly & make you feel really welcome. Any problems you have they deal with them as quickly as possible. It'll be the only place I'll be staying when I return in future visits. I really enjoyed my time at the Parklane motel & would highly recommend it to other people

Nice clean rooms, exactly as expected. Check in very seemed though would appreciate texted rather than emailed instructions.

Modest, clean, comfortable, reasonably priced and prices aren't jacked up during the tourist season. Across the road from park in Launceston, the owner is friendly and has off street parking.

Lovely clean room and wonderful reception, will stay here again!

Great motel, very steep driveway but otherwise exc

This old established motel is still worth staying in, always clean, private and great views of city Park

A bit run down but clean and handy to the CBD and football stadium.

Comfy, clean and tidy rooms. Happy all round.
