Great overnight stay

We had a great overnight stay during our road trip. The room is spacious with nice interior, bed is comfy & bathroom is clean & lux. As it was raining, it was very convenient to be able to have dinner at the Turkish restaurant. Helpful & friendly at hotel & restaurant. We enjoyed our short stay at Rydges Armidale.

The property entrance, lobby and grounds were very good but the room decor (walls, furniture, lighting) was too dark and gloomy. The room was large enough but in essence needs an upgrade.

Very disappointing room. Carpet was stained, black mould in the shower door tracks, marks around hand basin and old and tarnished tap fittings. The only service to the room during our three day stay was emptying of the bins. The rooms are in desperate need of a refresh. On a positive note , the bed was extremely comfortable.
