A room and place you actually love to spend time in. The size and ceiling height, old style antique furniture, historic architectural features and modern art, ‘Keeping time’ room was perfect for a romantic getaway. The hosts and on-site cafe add to the experience of a paddock to plate in an intimate setting, excellent food and service.

loved the architecture, interior design and original artworks everywhere. Also loveds having a mixture of old and new. my room had an old radio still functioning. Homely feel. The Owner also accomodated my unexpected early arrival, and following day opened the cafe a little earlier to organised breakfast for me. Delicious omellette with home made relish and homade bread. From the bathroom, there was a gorgeous view to the park, and at night, to my surprised, a large tree with fairy lights. i was there for work and didn't have much leisure time, but I'd like to go back and enjoy position and hospitality. Also liked the toiletries in large containers and not the plastic throwaways minimising plastic polution. the room i stayed in needs little bits of maintenance but ongoing in an older property. they were painting parts of the exterior when i was there. Not for those expecting a travelodge experience, but for travellers that want attention to detail and something comfortable and more sophisticated.

tay was ucomfortable due t loud music and loud voices emanating from the hotel next door. The room was small and not good value for the price. The welcome greeting was poor due to only one staff member managing both restaurant and room reception. It was very rushed. The property was clean.

Amazing old building
Three adults stayed in the one room with an en-suite bathroom. The old fashioned furnishings and character of the building was lovely and the service was great. The only problem was that the room was set up for only 2 people, so there was no cup, glass or plate did the 3rd person and we only got an extra towel because we asked the manager before he left for the evening. Otherwise a good night

So much better then staying in a Motel
This place was amazing The home was built in the late 1800 and I am so glad its still here today. The room I stayed in was very big with a 4 posted bed and had a bathroom with a nice spa bath. This B&B was next to the main street with restaurants and Cafes and Bars minutes away. The home has a café that was nice to have breakfast in sitting by the fire. I would recommend staying here over a Motel as it was the same price with the same amount of privacy. I will be back next time I visit Wagga Wagga.

Lovely Stay.
We had a lovely overnight stay here. It was our second time staying here and we loved it. We were in the smaller room which was perfect for an overnight stay. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony looking over into the park as we had our coffee. The restaurant downstairs is beautiful and did lovely wood fired pizza and breakfasts. Highly recommend staying here for couples who want somewhere with character and delicious food.

Quiet heritage guesthouse in central location. Clean room. Could improve on little things like making sure that on arrival there is milk in the fridge for tea or coffee, the soap dispenser is working in the bathroom, and guests are given a WIFI password on checkout.
