The Old Woolstore Apartment Hotel

Nestled at 1 Macquarie Street, Hobart, Tasmania 7000, Australia, The Old Woolstore Apartment Hotel occupies a heritage-listed building that traces its origins to around 1900 when it served as a wool storage and treatment facility. The historic exterior, crafted in sturdy red-brick industrial style, features a distinctive saw-tooth roofline that originally allowed natural light to flood the upper wool-treatment floors. The Half Merino is a versatile event space located on the ground floor of The Old Woolstore Apartment Hotel. Created by dividing the larger Merino Room with a soundproof concertina door, this flexible venue is ideal for dinners, meetings, or cocktail parties.
