Hi we stayed here during a business trip and we were happy to see that The Kidman is kept very clean and is comfortable, although rather dull in its decor. The staff were lovely and the food at the restaurant better than average. Overall a good stay.

I stay here whenever I have business in town. This is a comfortable and clean hotel just outside the main street. The staff are friendly and competent and the rooms are clean and comfortable. The parking is good and the facilities are good. We arrived on a busy day and found that we couldn't get into the room as the... More

Having travelled for the past 2 weeks throughout NSW, Victoria and SA, I was rather surprised to find this one the most expensive of all at $135 for a basic double room. The standard was definitely not up to some where we had paid much less. The bathroom cleaning left much to be desired with hair, bugs and general dirt... More

Stayed two nights on a special deal. Good place to stay with the proviso that it's a stiff walk from the railway station where the Countrylink coach dropped me. Good breakfast and really nice staff. I would have no worries staying there again and would be happy to take my wife who is heaps fussier than me! The Riverina area... More

I stayed in the so called best room the air con next door sounded like a truck engine. I got moved to the disabled room which smelt like somebody had left a surprise in the toilet. The room service was also very poor. But the staff are very friendly. I won't be staying here again.

I stay in this hotel each time I attend business in Griffith. It's clean, quiet (almost empty on my visit), and reasonably priced.the standard room I had was large enough and the bed was comfortable. The pillows were a bit average for comfort and there were no spares to chose from. I didn't have a meal so I can't comment... More

Stayed here for two nights on a work trip. We arrived late, and had to wait a while to be able to check-in. After originally being booked into smoking rooms by mistake the reception staff were very helpful in putting us in available non-smoking rooms. The staff were very friendly & helpful. I had room service from the restaurant both... More

This is our third visit to The Kidman for family weddings. We have always found this motel exceptionally clean, comfortable and reasonably priced. The rooms are very spacious and we cannot fault the staff. I would happily stay here on our next visit to the riverina and happy to suggest the Kidman for accommodation.
