I can't say a bad word about this place. We came to Armidale from Coffs Harbour and initially had high expectations for our Coffs Harbour and low expectations for this hotel. It ended up being the other way around, this place blew us away with the quality and vibe of the room. Heated floor tiles in the bathroom, a shower... More

Only stayed one night but it was a very pleasant experience. We stayed in an upgraded executive room. The decor was very classy, the room had everything you could possibly need including free wi-fi. The bathroom was sparkling with lovely soft king size towels and the shower so enjoyable that I used much too much water! The only complaint was... More

Although we didn't eat dinner at the Restaurant (as we had alternate plans with friends) we did have breakfast in the Restaurant which was fabulous. The... More

Had a wonderful stop-over in Armidale. The hotel was very nicely decorated from the rooms right through to the bar. The staff were well dressed and I loved their spoon tie pins, it added a little fun to their uniform. The service in the cocktail bar was great, and the cocktails are something not to miss out on. Very happy,... More
