Alexander Hotel

We stopped in on a whim prior to traveling back to Melbourne.  The food was fantastic, the bar staff really friendly and chatty and the decor kept our interest with all the little knick knacks around the walls.  

Great pub, plenty of atmosphere, freindly staff. Plenty of seating with river veiws.
Food is good straight from the chefs kitchen which services the restaurant next door.
Good meeting point when coming into town or before travewlling on the TT Liner!

The Alexander hotel seemed to me like the only budget option in devonport and for the price you can't ask for more. Them ladies are gorgeous and the hotel has a perfect location. Downstairs is a old cozy pub which belongs to the hotel and the prices are really fair. Can't ask for more

The "Office" as known by locals

Beautiful 

I came to stay here for a night, and I have to say I haven't had a worse experience at any backpacker's. When I came to check in the man was extremely rude and gave the impression that he didn't want me here at all - he told me other places that might have accommodation available (as if there weren't any availability here, which there were) and he asked me a lot of questions including whether I'd caused trouble at any other places in town! He then got my photo ID and spent an inordinate amount of time with it at the computer doing goodness knows what. Finally, he told me gruffly that if I wanted a room I needed to give my credit card details - it was in case I smoked in the rooms he said (despite me not being a smoker) and he said it was a "standard practice". Not standard practice for any other backpackers in Tassie I've been, nor for any of the other patrons staying there that I asked about it! If this wasn't the only place available at the time (one place being closed for the Winter, the other for renovations), I would have walked out then and there.

When that trial was over with, I finally got my room - for $35. The hotel itself was standard fare and rooms were reasonably clean, though drab and depressing. The exception to this being the kitchen, which was run-down and not very clean, with the fridge smelling and there being no labelling system for the food. The metal beds were of very bad construction, loose and wobbly, which squeaked every time one moved. 

All in all I'd avoid this place for alternatives, unless you enjoy being treated like dirt by the hotel staff.
