Disappointing
Nicely appointed room. Not friendly bar staff or wait staff in restaurant. Known for its steak, over rated, way overpriced. Ordered rare/medium rare, way over cooked. Had better from Coles, Woolworths.

Really pleased with our stay. Family room was perfect for us (2 adults/2 children). Cleanliness was of a very high standard with comfortable beds. Staff were very helpful, even when they were experiencing technical difficulties (due to world-wide IT meltdown -no fault of the hotel!) I forgot an item in the hotel. They located it and they are now posting it back to me - it was no trouble and I really appreciated that they held onto my item. We had room service one night and also breakfast in the restaurant. The food was delicious. I also had a little look at the gym/pool/spa/sauna facilities. All looked great! Pool isn’t heated but in the winter time you could definitely have a sauna / spa & get a nice workout in. I would definitely recommend a stay here.

Stopover in Tamworth
Overnight stay at a major renovated hotel on the outskirts of Tamworth. Wonderful bed linen and towels and water pressure. Very quiet room and mod cons. . We had dinner at the upmarket restaurant and the service was great in beautiful surroundings.

Charles RAHIM loved the Powerhouse Hotel Tamworth b3cause it was run by Rydges and it showed in a positive way. Charles loved the professionalism of the local Australian staff, which was nothing short of five stars out of five. Mr. Rahim will always stay at the Powerhouse Hotel in Tamworth, Australia.
