Hosts Paul and Brenden were a delight! Staying at The Grand is like taking a step back in time. The facilities are superbly renovated and the old charm of early Australia has been retained throughout the property. The rooms are extremely comfortable with all the modern amenities and the breakfast cooked by our hosts was absolutely delicious. The property is conveniently located a short walk into town where there are plenty of restaurants to choose from. I highly recommend The Grand on Macfie to anyone stopping in Devonport. You will not be disappointed!

Grand it certainly is, with enormous style and character. Comfy beds, beautiful rooms and decor, charming hosts, delicious breakfast served on gold rimmed china - what's not to love? If you are there on a Sunday afternoon, ask about their cream teas in advance - the clotted cream is home made!

Nothing to dislike!

hosts were wonderful , and helpful . Breakfasts were great and the view of the river was delightful . we would be very happy to return one day

Absolutely loved The Grand - old world charm lovingly restored and furnished beautifully, sympathetic to the era. The hosts are warm, friendly, very hospitable and informative. We had a great sleep because the bed was so comfortable. The breakfast is exceptional - I'm sorry we will miss the next High Tea. We don't usually B&B, but will more often now, Thank you Paul and Brenden, you are excellent hosts! I want to come back.

Charming ambience and hosts

Old World Charm ! Loved It.

This is a beautiful large vintage house and can be a little confusing. The room was comfortable and large with furniture to go with the period of the house. The cooked to order breakfast was excellent.

A beautiful double storey property in Devonport, amazingly and lovingly renovated and restored by the owners, with tastefull, elegant heritage furnishings throughout. Our room had an incredible sea view overlooking the terminal where the Spirit of Tasmania docks. Stunning! The owners have also created beautiful sitting rooms where guests can sit with a quiet beverage. The room had a 4 poster bed, the furnishings were beautiful and the whole experience exuded comfort, elegance and style. Highly recommended.

Paul and Brendan should be commended on their wonderful hospitality. The facilities were top notch. Breakfast was to die for. 😋 Many thanks again for a great stay.

Simply wonderful hospitality!

Very stylish place and great people running it

What can I say other than, if I could, I would rate The Grand at Macfie 10s across yhe board. I had decided to treat myself for my birthday and there couldn't have been a better place to do so. Paul and Brendan are such a team making this an unforgettable experience from the setting to the exquisite food not to mention the High Tea! They went above and beyond even taking me to my bus with a private tour enroute. Do not pass up this experience.

This boutique hotel is unique and beautiful, a real treat, but one thing put me off this last visit - lots of very loud hacking coughing coming from the kitchen as my breakfast was being prepared. Given the prevalence of horrible colds and flu's right now, let alone Covid, I don't think someone with a cough out to be preparing food. .

What a magnificent home, with hospitality to match. Thanks Paul and Brendan, we’ll definitely be back and will spread the word!

It has a lot of character and atmosphere, large rooms and beautifully furnished. Very friendly hosts and a great breakfast.

What a great find! Such a beautiful place. Was like staying in a Victorian era mansion. With the friendliest owners and breakfast included. Highly recommended

What a fantastic place to stay. The period decor is absolutely outstanding and lovely to see. The hosts Brendan and Paul's attention to detail was exemplary and service outstanding. Best breakfast (included) I have had at a hotel for a very long time. I would recommend a stay at the Grande to everybody.

Good service and affable hosts pleasure to stay

Paul and Brendon could not have been more friendly and helpful to us. It was as if they had second guessed what guests would need.An early fortifying breakfast and transport to the ferry provided. Warm welcoming and relaxing… a must

This stunning accommodation boasts the best in style and service. Our hosts Paul and Brendan were friendly, efficient and very welcoming. The only regret was having to leave!

It’s hard to imagine a better run B&B than The Grand on MacFie. The building is full of character and has been lovingly renovated complete with a variety of period furniture and fittings. Nothing seems to be too much trouble for the two hosts whether it’s carrying a heavy suitcase upstairs, providing local knowledge on places to visit or eat our, proper HP sauce at breakfast from the ‘family heirloom’ bottle! The Hotel is also well located being only an easy 5 minute walk into town or the river-side. Their is a choice of accommodation in Devonport but the Grand on MacFie, really has no real competition, particularly for a couple like ourselves looking for comfort, peace and quiet and a good breakfast. In fact it’s almost worth going to Devonport just to stay at the Grand on MacFie.

Great food, qreat service and very convenient spot.

Absolutely wonderful, great hosts and great cooks. Really worth the money couldn’t be happier with our stay.

Lovely place to stay, the house is wonderful and full of beautiful furniture and art. Great stay and everything you could wish for for breakfast.

Great place to stay. Fantastic breakfast. Magnificently appointed rooms. Attentive hosts. Great position.

A beautifully renovated heritage property, furnished with fabulous antiques and artworks. Comfortable and large room and excellent bed. Extremely friendly hosts and an absolutely fabulous breakfast [best in Tasmania]! We wished we had booked more than one night here.

It was a very enjoyable stay in a lovely old house. The staff were friendly, and our room had everything we needed. It was also within easy walking distance of downtown Devonport.

Beautiful heritage property with large rooms and communal spaces. The included breakfast was delicious and owner/managers were friendly and went above and beyond to share travel tips and accommodate our needs (including waiting for us to arrive off the Spirit of Tas to check in). Great location and easy parking. The complimentary shortbread was delicious.

Fabulous job in making it an authentic period to its heritage Truely amazing As was our breakfast 🍳

The place is a absolute gem You put at ease the minute you walking with a big smile, you get a reception we booked a suite and we're blown away when we walked into the room, it’s spectacular And the breakfast is one of the best we had in a long time This place is a must if you want old world charm and service Paddy/ leeanne

This was the last night of our 3 week Tasmanian road trip before heading off on the morning ferry. We wished we'd been able to stay longer at The Grand on Macfie because the hotel is simply beautiful with its superb period furnishings and decor, its luxe comforts and all because of the obvious dedication and love of the owners. We stated in the Queen Suite and it was comfort plus plus plus. The very high bed was so comfy that it was hard to leave in the morning. The cooked to order breakfast and coffee in the dining room was delicious. Many thoughtful touches made this special hotel even more memorable including complimentary shortbreads which were appreciated with coffee on the ferry home. Next time we come to Tasmania The Grand will be our first stop and we'll stay longer to soak up more of the beauty of its grounds and gorgeous gardens, location with views and rooms. A stunning achievement which can be enjoyed now by many travellers and locals, and well priced. They also offer a High Tea which I'm sure would be a highlight. Congratulations to the owners.
