​​heritage accommodation with a fresh new edge

LAUNCESTON | Tasmania

The Dragonfly Inn features six uniquely styled rooms set in a heritage-listed Victorian mansion, enveloped in peaceful grounds in the hills of West Launceston, Tasmania. We are all about providing a top-quality, warm and welcoming stay to remember. Located near the iconic Cataract Gorge and less than a 5-minute drive from the Launceston CBD, The Dragonfly Inn invites you to relax and enjoy. 

​Each guest room features private ensuite bathrooms and sitting area, reverse-cycle heating and cooling. A hearty breakfast basket is provided to be prepared and enjoyed in the grand dining room downstairs.
The Dragonfly experience...

Our accommodation is a little different to most, we sit somewhere between a bed & breakfast and a hotel.  I guess you could call us a boutique self-service guest house! 

Our aim is to take the cold and stuffiness out of hotel accommodation and breathe a very homely, stylish and welcoming feel into our rooms without being in our guests face like old-school bed & breakfast stays! 

We own and run two properties, so we cannot be everywhere at once unfortunately – but it has made us a little creative and innovative in how to streamline our processes and ensure your stay is very smooth, even without us being present… and at the end of the day it is great on your pocket in terms of lower pricing being passed on to our wonderful guests!  Basically it allows our guests to be able to stay in our grand historic properties at extremely affordable prices!
