Guest Reviews
- Steven (4/5): - Room smell when went in,no spoons for coffee supplyied,now water when in shower when someone flushes toilet in another room, bed saggs to the middle,only 2 tv channels which was sprort and keno,location was great
- Judith (4/5): - The room was clean and i wont be staying there again
- Melita (6/5): - Convenient location. Morning staff are noisy.
- Matt (2/5): - Shared toilet and shower where not only small to where I could hardly sit on the toilet but the lights would go off while showering the bed was like laying on just the springs,and the room was dirty. Probably one of the worst places I’ve stayed in and it wasn’t even that great of price
- Ethan (8/5): - Cheap and affordable
- Davina (10/5): - LOVE THIS PLACE. It’s
- Alison (10/5): - X
- SIMONE (8/5): - The first room was not made up the mattress had a heap of stains
- Colin (8/5): - The room was clean and tidy and fairly modern
- Glenda (6/5): A - Good for one night. Room ok. Shared bathroom badly needs upgrade. Light is on a timer so left in the shower in darkness even though it was not a long shower. Toilet cubicles small and difficult to get in and out of. Room was warm and beds and linen clean. Dining room and bar very nice. Would be an A class hotel if rooms and bathroom were done up.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Central to everything and economical. - We were very happy with our stay but would have liked and extra towel.
- Louise (10/5): - Great
- Catherine (4/5): - The hotel/bars/dining itself is very good, however the accommodation was terrible. Peeling paint, threadbare carpets, clean sheets but a stained blanket. No tv, no crockery (even though there were teabags, coffee and a kettle!), and the unisex bathroom was obviously designed for skinny males. I discovered the female bathroom around the corridor, which was marginally better. For $10 more, I have booked a different hotel for my return journey, which has all the necessary amenities in it. Disappointed.
- Travis (4/5): - Would not stay again
- Aslan (6/5): - The location is perfect in walking distance to train station and restaurants. The hotels bar in really good as well. The rooms are not in good condition and not hygiene.
- Diana (6/5): - We stayed in a three single bed room. With a shared bathroom. We arrived early and were told that we could not book in till after 2:00 p.m. fair enough maybe they were cleaning the rooms. The room was clean . The shared bathroom was dirty with dirty toilets and dirty floor we complained and asked for them to be cleaned which they did get somebody to come and clean. But after waiting for two hours to check in I would expect that the bathrooms would have been cleaned this was unacceptable after all there was only us that was staying there besides somebody else in another area which had an ensuite. 88 dollars a night fair enough you get what you pay for this could be a really nice place if it was cleaned up have spent too much money renovating downstairs need to lower the price for the upstairs area.
- Dennis (6/5): - Room was dated as paint was coming off ceiling. Bed mattress seems to be very old, very soft. Bathroom was very squeezy getting into toilet.
- Carlos (2/5): - The room was dirty with cobwebs and no cups
- Kim (8/5): - Clean and friendly
- R (6/5): - Good area
- Mahesh (4/5): - The management just focuses on the pub/restaurant at the ground floor and the accomodation on the above floor is totally neglected. Dirty cups, no room service, equipments in the room broken, loud aircon, peeling paint everywhere are some of the real issues. Apparently they ran out of sugar packets on our 2 day stay which shows the seriousness of management in maintaining the standards. Only positive thing is the location and it's proximity to shops.
- Mr El-Haji Saed (2/5): Room needs a lot of care and good sound proofing - Bathroom was full of mosquitoes. Aircondition cover was off and you can see the dust in the filters. People were making noise outside, which can be heard inside even with windows open till 1am
- Bella-Rose (10/5): - It was a lovely place to stay! So happy I went
- paige (6/5): - It wasn’t horrible, but for not being much cheaper than other places I’ve stayed in this area, I would have expected more. It didn’t look like they vacuumed the room at all, there was a chocolate rapper on the floor next to the bed when I got in, the tv barely worked, the lamps didn’t have globes in them, the mugs were layered in dust, and I was woken up at 6:30 each morning because the room was a lit with light that the curtains barely contained, not to mention there was no hand soap, body soap, shampoo or conditioner. I wouldn’t stay here again, the only good thing about it is that it is really close to the main shopping area.
- Peter (2/5): - Room was filthy. Hadn't been vacuumed for some time. Black spider and web next to air conditioner. Very out dated and in need of renovation. Over priced for the condition of rooms. Would not recommend.
- Longlath (6/5): - good for stay one noght and going ahead to destination
- Martyn (2/5): - Need to learn how to clean
- Cheryl (8/5): - Convenient location. Reasonable price
- Gary (6/5): - The hotel is convenient to Wagga Wagga railway station and the CBD. The pub meals are good and the room was good. Having said that, while the ground floor is attractively renovated , the upstairs is still an old country pub with creaky floors and squeaky doors. Therefore it is a bit expensive for what you get.
- Jasmine (6/5): - Facilities were nice, clean and tidy however the young lady that checked me in was clearly not having a good evening, wasn’t friendly didn’t even smile, hope she is having a better day for the nxt sake of the nxt check in she does.
- Lorraine (8/5): - The corner room. The location. Would recommend. Will stay again.
- Dean (8/5): - Very friendly welcoming
- Kristy (2/5): - The rooms look nothing like the advertisement photo there was no television, all you could smell was dust the air cooler was through the window and the shared bathroom was filthy. Not what i expected for the price this should be a 70 room not 132
- Jimmy (4/5): - Downstairs bar and bistro area sensational. Accommodation filthy, old, rubbish everywhere, shower areas not cleaned. Really disappointed.
- Andrew (6/5): - Excellent dining, great meals at great prices. The location next to traffic lights on a main rd was noisy and the noise from the bar until after 11pm
- Bill (6/5): - Very friendly and helpful staff. Accommodation was ok for a one night stop over for a bed and shower while travelling.
- Allan (8/5): - ok
- Peter (8/5): - No check-in desk. You do it at the public bar. But done efficiently. I was there on a Saturday night and they warned me prior to my stay there would be loud music with a DJ there until about 2.30am and I should be prepared for it or seek quieter accomodation.I stayed there and did hear the noise but it didn't worry me. There was no remote to operate the TV and I asked for one and they said it had been stolen and I could not use the TV. Room was OK with comfortable bed, modern ensuite and aircon. Location was good close to train station and shops/restaurants. Value for money was good and I would stay there again
- Bowen (8/5): - The price is reasonable
- Alison (2/5): - Stayed for convenience. Wished I’d picked elsewhere. Bathrooms were disgusting. I couldn’t shower there and needed to shower at a friend house. Extremely loud to 2am mid week and they did the kegs before 7am.
- Elia (4/5): - Close 2 minutes walk to the city
- Kirsten (8/5): - Overall a good stay, however the room is very average, minor things like broken fan, cover missing off air con and the mattress was hard as a rock, other than that property was as described and all staff lovely, very central location
- Rosemarie (10/5): - An excellent overnight experience.
- Phillip (2/5): - I booked the room on the 29th of March for a one night stay on the on the 20th of july. The hotel took it upon themselves to inform me that on Saturday nights they have a dj playing loud music and if you dont like loud music they would recommend not booking on these nights. My problem with that is i got the message from them on the 19th of july which gave me no time to cancel and rebook somewhere else. Seems to me that they made sure they could keep the payment by not informing me earlier. Extremely dissatisfied
- Julie (6/5): - Location was excellent. It is very dated, including creaking floorboards but modern door locks. Air conditioner worked but had broken/no fins. One bed needs replacing it sunk in the middle quite a lot.
- Leah (6/5): - It was cold and no toaster or microwave
- Deborah (4/5): - I found the walls in the bathroom were flaking apart. There were water stains near one of the beds. PowerPoint near the TV was broken and cracked
- sally (4/5): - Staff were helpful. Downstairs looks lovely. Rooms upstairs rundown and need some upgrading. Dont recommend staying on a Saturday night as the loud music down stairs went well after 1am so were unable to sleep. Music was so loud downstairs that the windows were vibrating. Maybe they need to mention loud music on weekends is highly likely. Wouldn't stay there again due to the noise and had to get up early for kids sports the next day.
- Fleur (2/5): - Do NOT stay at this property!! Very loud DJ until the early hours of the morning, so no sleep. Checked in to an already occupied room. Bore water from the taps and no bottled water to use for brushing teeth. Did not feel safe in this hotel.
- Mitch (4/5): If you want vibrating floors 12:30am it’s for you - Terrible, knew we were staying above a pub but 12:30am and music is vibrating floor and window above the door. No one mentioned that it was going to be like this and definitely wouldn’t recommend based in this
- Noelene (4/5): - Room was very poor obviously renovating food and staff excellent
- JoJo (6/5): - There was no towel or toiletries in my room. Lucky I noticed this before I stepped in the shower. Was given a towel and a bar of soap. That’s it. Where was the other toiletries?? The wifi did not reach my room despite the website claiming free wifi in all areas of the hotel. The lamp was missing the lightbulb therefore my room was either full lights or no lights. All round a very disappointing stay
- Jen (10/5): - All good
- Phìl (6/5): - Booked ahead. There was no designated parking as advertised as carpark area was being used for a function so had to park on street on 2 hr park. Acess to room was via very narrow stepped stairs with a wobbly handrail and being a handicap permit holder found this access unsafe. Staff were excellent and agreed to full refund.
- Tina (8/5): - Wow the food at William Farrer is amazing had a beautiful dinner The room was somewhere to sleep If you don’t want to share bathrooms don’t stay here the room is just a room to sleep The staff were amazing they were friendly and helpful I would recommend going here for a drink and amazing staff hospitality
- Joseaphine (6/5): - I do believe that we just happened to arrive in unordinary circumstances. The pub down below was under construction, so dirt, debris and paint fumes was understandable. The Place was exactly what we needed, just a place to rest our heads after a sporting tournament. If you’re looking for a 5 star quality Hotel yeah this isn’t for you. It’s pretty basic for basic needs. The Cleaning ladies were so courteous and helpful. Molly also helped us with check in quick and easy. We have no negatives as we got what we needed for the price we paid for. Compared to others occupying the other rooms we had a great room large family room, its own bathroom. A shame the TV didn’t work but wasn’t a must for us. Super grateful to have booked on such a busy weekend. All the best with the renovations. Will return if required.
- Susan (8/5): - The communication with the hotel was excellent. Thank you Molly. Due to the fact that the downstairs pub, bar and bistro area was being renovated there was nowhere to park but Heather, who we met after checking in, was very friendly and gave us a few good suggestions and we managed to find a spot near the hotel. The room was spotless and we heard very little noise from the builders downstairs. The room is not luxurious but is perfect for a short stay and was convenient and close to all the main shops and eateries. The bed was very comfortable but the room could have done with a reading lamp. The price was very, very reasonable. We would definitely stay again and look forward to the renovations being completed as they are looking awesome.
- Isabella (10/5): - Nice staff
- Alan (6/5): - Biggest concern is that the room I stayed in has a P.I.N operated lock, and the combination wasn’t changed from the previous time I stayed there, which leads me to believe that anyone that has stayed in the room before can come back and let them selves in.
- Yashmita (2/5): - Room was not clean Bed was not made It was used room Toilet was stinking
- Michelle (6/5): - First room had not been cleaned but staff quickly switched to booking to a second room that had been serviced.
- Scott (2/5): - Old dingy rooms no ensuite no tv 👎👎👎
- Azizur (4/5): - I do not like it.
- garry (2/5): - not what supposed no tv shower in room more over priced need my money back
- jenny (10/5): - Property was perfect for our quick overnight stop before heading to Dubbo. Staff helpful and friendly .
- sharon (8/5): - Overall good
- Imran (8/5): - The room was not as clean as expected
- Karen (8/5): - Enjoyed the ensuite room, spacious enough for 2 for an overnight stay. Bathroom facilities new, slightly dated furnishings but comfortable.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - old rooms, some charm there. separate toilet/shower was in great condition staff very friendly
- Yoshi (8/5): - The staff were friendly, the property was as expected. Good price for during busy time.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Very noisy hotel and the room they gave me with the sharing toilet and shower was very dirty just disgusting. Room was noisy and smelly never go back there again 👎👎👎👎👎
- Grace (8/5): - Clean and comfortable, staff where pleasant, easy to find and within walking distance of Main Street
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Not good enough as a pub stay - more like a backpackers hostel
- Verified traveler (4/5): - we where supposed to stay at the William farrer but wotif had overbooked so they sent us to the Victoria hotel. We were the only people staying there it is upstairs above the pub itself which has a 3.30am closing licence at weekneds (no Sleep) It had 2 single beds and a fan in the room.--the toilet and showers were down the hall when the taps were turned on the water came out brown. It was dirty and damp
- Frank (10/5): - Good location. Close to taxis, train station and coffee shops.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - Took to long to clean another room..I.stayed in TVs should be in all rooms. Bathroom was too small
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Shame about the guest with mental issues who kept us all awake from 4.00am.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very friendly staff. Go out of your way to make your stay comfortable! Gret price! Excellent food!
- Verified traveler (4/5): Would consider never staying there again - No breakfast as you stated on your web
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Toilet was difficult to access.Stairway too close to main bar.Noise from disco until 3am made sleeping impossible.Terrace bar was not sealed from main bar so noise came Through making talking and listening very unfriendly.Not a good private function venue.This situation was helped by use of microphone.Staff were asked to turn music down several times but nothing happened.Just paid lip service.Food prepared for function was excellent.All sliders skewers,fish and chip baskets all well cooked and presented.Excellent.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - Complimentary breakfast was nonexistent. Only one downlight worked in the whole bedroom. Noise from the hotel disco kept us awake. Door code system wasn’t properly explained causing us to be locked out.
- Amber (4/5): - No 'complementary' breakfast was given even though it is included. Bands and music play on weekends until 2-3am, which is fine but wasn't mentioned anywhere and is different to a few years ago. I was given the wrong key and walked into someone else's room. Another guest was then accidentally given my key and they walked into my room while I was in it. So security is terrible. Staff were nice. I've stayed here a few times over the years, and it used to be an affordable, and decent pub but their standard has slipped for accomodation. I won't be going back.
- Abraham (10/5): - there’s wifi quota of 500mb free
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The food at the hotel was excellent, but didn’t get breakfast the first morning. I booked a double room and was put in a family room.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good pub. Room was clean and warm. Didn't get the free breakfast. Nobody seemed to know free breakfast existed.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Its about what you would expect for the price. The room good just small and looked like it needs a good new paint job and some tiles replaced around the sink
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good pub accommodation no complaints staff are friendly
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Customer service was warm & friendly, went out of their way to keep customers happy.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - old building renovated.great feel to the place......
- Verified traveler (10/5): - i like people at the hotel nice and friendly the food very good
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Basis hotel room. Clean but a bit warm on very hot day and night. Aircon in room didn’t work very well. Otherwise ok
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Was a great place very clean great staff but air conditioning system didn't work to well
- Verified traveler (10/5): - I liked everything very happy, stayed there 2 nights was great.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Friendly staff, good food, affordable rooms, good drink prices
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Surprisingly quiet as we were above the hotel facilities. Quaint high ceilings and squeeky corridor floors and the room most comfortable with a recently properly renovated ensuite. All small but suited us at the budget price with breakfast included.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - comfy bed, clean ensuite, handy position. all that you would expect from pub accommodation.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - They need to let people know that they have live bands on till 1:30 in the morning, went down for Breakfast at 8 o'clock, couldn't find anyone, the only good thing is the counter meals, help your self veges
- Verified traveler (2/5): - No TV, communal bathroom in the hallway, run down rooms, broken air conditioner with no instructions for use, no power point at the kettle, the hotel had wifi but there was no password offered and noisy bass from downstairs music while trying to sleep on a wobbly and uncomfortable bed.
- W (6/5): - Good for a cheap one night stay. Food was good and breakfast was ample.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - I cancelled my booking, by phone, to hotel staff and was still charged the full price. I rang and asked for a refind and the manager refused. Not nice people, imo.
