The Museum of Old and New Art is located on the River Derwent. From Best Western Hobart you can arrive in under 20 minutes.
It can also be reached by Mona’s zany catamaran, which is like a billionaire’s lair – kitted out with three bars and lots of gold and plush red coverings. The toilet is even gold.
MONA is the largest privately funded muserum in the Southern Hemisphere, housing ancient, modern and contemporary art that is curated to disturb, and shock.
All exhibits are intended to provoke conversation and debate, and most are also affronting in some way.
It’s been called a ‘Subversive Adult Disneyland’ and a ‘Temple of the Bizarre’. And it’s been rumoured that owner David Walksh removes the exhibits that do not create controversy, or that are liked too much.
Other attractions close to our hotel include the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens and Mount Wellington which offers spectacular views of the city.

Best Western Hobart pays respect to the traditional and original owners of this land the Muwinina people, – to pay respect to those that have passed before us and to acknowledge today’s Tasmanian Aboriginal people who are the custodians of this land.
