    I nothing really but if I had to pick something I would say it would have been nice for our bed to be made each day.

    Great location, great facilities and beautiful breakfast every day. The staff were warm and welcoming and we enjoyed our stay.

    $2 Coles bottled water ?

    We decided to have 2 nights in Kettering as a base for our visit to Bruny Island. This was a mistake as there is absolutely nothing to do in Kettering and in hindsight we should have done a day trip from Hobart . There is very little accommodation to choose from and almost no choice for dinner anywhere, except the local pub , if it is open. ( It wasn’t ) The Cove “ luxury “ suites are very nice but definitely not “ luxury” . The room was spacious, very clean and comfortable with a lovely bed and a nice view. At $299 per night, the going rate ( we paid $269 ) and described as luxury , you would expect the little “ luxury “ add on touches such as personal toiletries, perhaps complimentary chocolates, a large tv and a served cooked breakfast, none of which were forthcoming. The breakfast was self serve basic and the $2 charge for the Coles bottled water was having a lend when you are paying this amount per night. $230 a night should be about it. Suggest you visit Bruny island from Hobart for a day trip

    It’s located on a main road, so not a relaxing spot from that perspective.

    Well appointed spacious room with large bay windows, heated towel rack and underfloor heating in the bathroom. Despite being in summer, we had some fresh nights. The staff were very accommodating and friendly.

    We shared the room with a resident skink, a little distrubing but all good. No eating facilities close by on Mon-Wed.

    The location is great for exploring Bruny Island and the Southern Regions of Tasmania; it is not so good when it comes to accessing food as there is very little in Kettering itself. The room and break out areas were clean and expansive, making it all very comfortable.

    No big issues at all really. The underfloor heating wasn't super effective. First world problem really.

    Terrific location. Spacious clean rooms. Comfy beds and yummy breakfast. Lazing next to the fire at night was just amazing...🤩

    The television is small for the size of the room. The electronic door locks while simple were annoying and could be difficult for some. Dining options are limited in the town. No USB charging points on any PowerPoints Lighting in the room was dull. a floor/reading lamp would be helpful near the couch.

    Super large room with separate lounge space for all guests. Wonderful views overlooking the Kettering marina. Easy parking directly at the door. Free internet. Simple but sufficient breakfast. Easy pay of drinks via qr code Quick access to Bruny Island Ferry. Bed was the softest we had ever slept on. we thought this would be an issue but turned out to provide the best sleep ever.

    The design and detail did not exude any warmth or luxury. It had a cold feeling/vibe, despite being comfortably warm temperature-wise. Certain features were missing that we have become accustomed to elsewhere, eg soft closing lids on toilets and bedside PowerPoints or usb outlets next to the bed. Tinned fruit salad with yoghurt for breakfast was really cheap. We haven’t eaten tinned fruit since we were children half a century ago. A major detraction were the cold showers on 2 days before the hot water service was fixed.

    The property was new and well kept and handy to the Marina and an easy drive from Hobart.

    Nestled against the picturesque backdrop of Boat Harbour, The Cove Kettering Suites offers an exquisite retreat that seamlessly blends luxury and tranquility. From the moment you arrive, you are greeted by the breathtaking views of the harbor, setting the tone for a truly memorable stay. Upon stepping into the suite, I was immediately struck by the pristine cleanliness that permeated every corner. The attention to detail was evident, ensuring a comfortable and welcoming environment throughout my stay. The bed, undoubtedly the centerpiece of any accommodation, exceeded expectations. With plush linens and a blissfully comfortable mattress, a restful night's sleep was guaranteed, leaving me refreshed and rejuvenated each morning. The continental breakfast, served with the utmost professionalism, provided a delightful start to the day. One of the standout features of The Cove Kettering Suites is its unbeatable location. Situated mere steps away from the ferry ship to Bruny Island, convenience meets serenity, allowing guests to easily explore the natural wonders of the region. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend The Cove Kettering Suites to anyone seeking a luxurious retreat with unparalleled views and impeccable service. Whether you're in search of a romantic getaway or a peaceful escape, this hidden gem promises an unforgettable experience.
