The Henry Jones Art Hotel

Overview

Main Information

The Henry Jones is Australia’s first dedicated art hotel – and is itself a work of art. Standing on Hobart’s waterfront where Europeans first stepped ashore 200 years ago, the hotel has been transformed from a row of 1820s warehouses and a former jam factory into an enthralling first class space showcasing the work of Tasmania’s finest visual and performing artists.

Some rooms in The Henry Jones enjoy sensational harbour and water views where fishing trawlers slip quietly into view just beneath the window. Other rooms overlook the stunning glass Atrium built within the old jam factory interior – one of many spaces offering a fabulous fusion of the antique and the modern.

Rooms feature natural timber furnishings, trapeze lighting, a lavish king-size bed with exotic silk covers and ottomans. Each guest room has a high quality LCD flat screen TV, DVD, with high speed Internet connectivity. You’ll marvel at the sumptuously-equipped stainless steel and translucent glass bathrooms featuring the latest in European elliptical spa baths and fittings.

Most suites and rooms feature the latest European Sok overflowing spa baths by Kohler (exclusive to The Henry Jones) where you can immerse in an ultra-deep, tranquil pool. Some suites also have a kitchenette.

Hotel rooms and public spaces exhibit original artworks, most of which are available for purchase. Each room is furnished with a catalogue of the Henry Jones Art Hotel’s collection.

Hobart

  • The city of Hobart is an interesting blend of modernity, scenery, heritage and culture. A modern lifestyle set amongst a dramatic, heritage influenced cityscape, this is not a city to be missed.

    Much like the rest of Australia, Hobart receives four distinctive seasons of weather over the year.

Accommodation Options and Facilities

Rebuilt in the early 1900’s in an art nouveau style, the administration offices of H Jones & Co IXL Jams retain the spoils of a thriving and exciting time in Tasmania’s history. With oak ceilings and original skylights the H. Jones Suite easily evokes the allure of the past. You can relax on your king size bed or use the overflowing SOK spa bath.

Dining

Dining

Take cocktails in the IXL Long Bar while enjoying the surrounding art. If you wish to explore Hobart and surrounds, take a stroll down to Salamanca Place to find 19th-century waterfront warehouses dating back to the 1830’s whaling days. Today, they house cafes, restaurants, galleries and art studios, the ideal place to wander or enjoy alfresco dining – also where the Salamanca market is held every Saturday.
