Once a bustling wharf market, later a giant shipping shed… now a world-class waterfront visitor experience!

This charismatic complex is known as MAC01, the majority of which is occupied by our storytelling hotel, MACq 01 (note the addition of a distinguishing letter ‘q’).

The name of the complex (and our storytelling hotel) comes from our location on Macquarie Wharf. The shipping shed previously occupying this location, known as Macquarie 1, was removed and the complex was built as a replica with design enhancements.

Located in such close proximity to each other, the MACq 01 Hotel and MAC01 Complex seamlessly merge to create an unforgettable experience for visitors. The unique blend of heritage, innovation, and artistic expression in this complex is a reflection of Hobart itself.

Alongside our storytelling hotel, the MAC01 complex is host to some other exceptional Tasmanian offerings…
