Description
The Lufra Hotel, situated at Eaglehawk Neck, provides relaxed affordable accommodations close to Port Arthur and natural attractions. Australian aviation pioneer and tourism entrepreneur Sir Reginald Ansett is reputed to have described the Lufra Hotel as "the hotel with the best view in the world." No wonder there has been an accommodation house on the same site for more than 150 years. Nor was it a surprise when Sir Reg decided that he would make that view available to the growing number of tourists visiting Australia's island state. He built the present hotel in 1948, just one hour from Hobart, The Lufra is ideally located as the base for you to enjoy many activities, sitting as it does at Eaglehawk Neck, the narrow isthmus which connects the Forestier and Tasman Peninsulas. Visit the Lufra and you'll share more than a stunning view because the area abounds in many attractions - both natural and made-made - all within easy driving or walking distance.Make the Lufra your home away from home when visiting this beautiful historic area of Tasmania.
The Lufra has 22 ensuite rooms, all with heating, electric blanket, television, clock radio, refrigerator, linen and tea/coffee making facilities. Other guest facilities and services include: infant cots, iron, high chair, public telephone and laundry. Our licensed restaurant is complemented by a games/recreation room, television/lounge area with open fireplace, cafe/coffee shop and bar.
