You’re always welcome at Shippies

The Shipwright’s Arms Hotel — Shippies’ to the locals — was established in 1846. Situated in the heart of historic Battery Point, it has a unique collection of Tasmanian and maritime memorabilia.

The English-style bar (built by a shipwright) features Tasmanian timbers — and log fires keep it cosy in winter. In summer, relax in our sail-shaded beer garden

As well as the most popular bistro in town, we offer comfortable and reasonably priced accommodation — and we’re only a short stroll from bustling Salamanca Place and the Hobart waterfront.
