Hadley's Orient Hotel
About
Overview & Vibe
Hadley's Orient Hotel has been welcoming guests since 1834 — a gold-and-heritage boutique hotel in the heart of Hobart, opposite St David's Cathedral, where weddings unfold under the glass roof of the Atrium amid palms and Victorian ironwork.
Setting & Style
Ceremonies take the light-filled Atrium — exclusive use, in-house sound system and signing table included — or the George Cartwright Room overlooking Murray Street, before receptions of up to 120 move through the Leadlight and Mary Hadley Rooms: sit-down dinners, grazing tables or cocktail parties, with the piano-lounge Orient Bar for pre- and post-celebration drinks. Upstairs, 4.5-star Victorian-era rooms keep the couple and their guests in-house, and the hotel's art collection — home of the Hadley's Art Prize — lines the halls.
Ideal For
Couples wanting heritage-hotel romance in the middle of Hobart — ceremony, reception and accommodation under one 1834 roof.
