I travelled down the east coast from Qld to move to Tasmania. I stayed at many hotels along the way. Barclay Motor Inn was the best place I stayed and have stayed in quite some years. It was so clean, modern, I felt safe there for the week. The owners were lovely helping me with directions around town, options for helping me settle in. By far the best place I have stayed, highly recommend.

It was all good

Excellent, very friendly service from the motel managers who were extremely helpful in assisting us when our stay in Devonport was unexpectedly extended. Light-filled, clean, airy and large studio room with a well-equipped small kitchen. Excellent facilities - heated swimming pool, tennis court, laundry. Well-located in a quiet street only a few minutes walk from the coast and beaches, the city centre, and good restaurants. A high quality and economical place to stay in Devonport.

Everything was excellent.

I've commented on the BarClay before, this place is amazing for what you spend. This time we stayed in the house with the shared rooms and it was such a great experience. The house was nice and clean, yes a little old but it suited us for the two days we were there.

Hard to fault the place. You pay a really good rate for good facilities, a pool and a tennis court which is largely available to you at your leisure. Short drive to devonport, it's a great place to stay getting off and coming to the Spirit of Tassie. Highly recommend

Staff friendly and helpful made to feel welcome and at home. Location close to centre, within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Room light and airy with table and seating area. The room had all you would need to self cater for a few days. Also had an indoor heated swimming pool that was an extra positive! We used this place as a base for three nights so that we could explore the northern coast from Stanley eastwards before returning to Launceston.

All fine.

The room was spacious and clean and the grounds were well maintained. The staff always greeted us with a friendly hello. The location is perfect, very close to the water and the lighthouse. Short drive to town.

The bathroom was quite dated and could do with some modernisation to freshen it up a bit.

We had a 4 night stay in a Studio room and could not really fault anything. The room was large and contained everything that we may have needed during our stay. The bed was very comfortable, plenty of power points especially access to power points at the bedside tables. The window loft in the main room provided natural light which added to the 'warm' ambience of the the room. And if you didn't want the early morning sunshine in your room there was a curtain that could block it out - we chose to leave the curtain open 24hrs and it never affected our sleep. The motel is in a quiet location, parking was plentiful outside of our room, and the location was perfect - an easy walk into the CBD area to the south, or to the north along the coastline to the historic sights of Bluff Point, the Lighthouse, Vietnam memorial and Maritime museum. We didn't get an opportunity to use the heated pool which was a shame as it looked very inviting and clean, nor did we use the half court tennis but we did see some young children enjoying a game. A couple of picnic tables and benches were situated on a nice grassed area available to everyone and within view of all the rooms - we utilised these a couple of times enjoying a beer/wine and it was very pleasant. Apart from enjoying the sights at Devonport, we used this motel as our hub for exploring other areas such as Stanley, and of course for our return trip back to the mainland on the Spirit of Tasmania. We would definitely stay here again on future trips. A big thankyou to the staff!

Everything was very good, but if I had to pick one thing to comment on, I would suggest that the sliding 'barn' door to the bathroom needed a slight adjustment so that it glided easier to lessen the noise when using during the night....but that's really a very minor thing and did not affect our very pleasant stay.

The bed was very comfortable and the room had all that I needed. Good to have a microwave and crockery etc as I had take away food delivered to my room. The bathroom had obviously been recently refurbished and was attractive, clean and functional. They have a heated swimming pool, which was a bonus, although I didn't use it as I hadn't packed any bathers. Very comfortable and convenient location in Devonport, if you have a car. However I noticed a bus stop out the front, so you could use public transport (or a taxi) to take the very short trip into the city centre.

Good sized room, well appointed kitchenette, good sized towels and enough towels for us both. I really liked the soaps dispenser at the bathroom sink and in the shower. So much better than small soaps. Great water pressure in the shower, an unexpected treat as not usual in accommodations. Presence of air con and fan in the room as it was extremely hot weekend. Friendly staff at check in and when I called back as we left two items behind.

Nothing. Would be great to have larger mugs for tea and coffee. Nice for after or before a long drive. Otherwise no negatives at all.

The staff are always so lovely, the rooms have been upgraded since I last went with new carpet and a beautiful new bathroom! The beds are always comfy and the rooms are always so clean! I always book at Barclay when I go to Tassie as it’s value for money, the location is within walking distance to restaurants and it’s always such a good time! A huge bonus is being greeted in reception by Abby the most gorgeous little long hair chihuahua and having all the cuddles with her I possibly could!

Was a perfect location to spend our last few days before hopping on to the Spirit of Tasmania. Staff were really friendly and guests were really quiet. Rooms were clean.

We couldn’t get the kitchen stove to work - however they had provided an electric frypan that did the job! The shower could use an upgrade - the tub was very worn and the shower head dripped.
