I wasn't given the room I had chosen and booked, well in advance purposely to avoid the chance of being given the same room I had last time with views of builders rubbish in long grass, an old shed and old fencing. It was quite a shock to see first thing in the morning!

We have now stayed here twice in the last 2 months and are also booked to stay again later this year. The Argosy is conveniently located to where we need to be and has great parking for large vehicles. It is also very budget friendly compared to other similar properties that would meet our needs. Have recommended to others and will be back

Argosy is located on the highway into Devonport. Very easy to find. Close to the Spirit ferries. There are three restaurants one formal with an extensive salad bar a Bistro with a drinks bar. The breakfasts both the cooked and continental are served in dining room with a chef and an array of foods for selection, juice, 4 cereals, fruit, yoghurt, freshly brewed coffee and tea. I booked on line and was extremely happy with my choice. I certainly will stay again. My thanks to ALL the pleasant staff.

Comfy and affordable
Comfortable stay. Price was appropriate for accommodation type, basic , clean, friendly service. The only issue was we ran out of handwash on first day and it was never replenished after 4 days. We were leaving early and back late so didn't get the opportunity to tell tge service desk but housekeeping should have realised each day they serviced the room.
