The Henry Jones Art Hotel is Australia’s first dedicated art hotel. On Hobart’s glorious waterfront, a handsome row of historic warehouses and former IXL jam factory dating from the 1820’s, have been creatively transformed into an enthralling and luxurious first class hotel showcasing the work of some of Tasmania’s finest visual artists.

The hotel is itself a fusion of art, heritage, technology and tradition. Located on Hobart’s Victoria dock, most of the 56 rooms have close harbour and water views where you can watch fishing trawlers slip quietly into view just beneath your window, while others overlook the stunning glass Atrium and reveal glimpses of the old jam factory interior.

The Henry Jones’ signature restaurant, Henry’s Harbourside Restaurant, is a splendid setting where you can indulge in an exciting and innovative menu featuring continental European dishes and contemporary Australian cuisine. The choice is as delicious as it is endless – the finest selection of seafood, local beef, lamb, game and seasonal produce. Friendly, first class service complements the inventive food prepared by the award-winning kitchen, and will redefine your expectations of fine food and wine.

The IXL Long Bar is the ultimate meeting place in Hobart! Here your whole evening begins with a host of surprises, smiles, and sheer pizzazz. Against an extraordinary backdrop of history and sophisticated contemporary art and design, ‘having a quiet ale down the harbour’ will be an altogether new and breathlessly exhilarative experience.
