I’m Mal, the proud owner of The Old Federal Coffee Palace and a big fan of life in Launceston. It’s a city full of character, great food and beautiful surroundings, and I hope your stay here makes your visit even more memorable. I love getting out and enjoying everything the region has to offer — from dining around town and discovering new pubs, to hiking and running through the stunning Cataract Gorge. You’ll often find me at UTAS Stadium catching the footy, or heading off on day trips to nearby wineries and beaches. There’s always something to see and do, and I’m always happy to share recommendations to help you make the most of your stay.

Located in the heart of Launceston, the apartment places you right in the centre of the city’s energy, with everything you need just moments away.
