Cotswold gardens is a good option in Armidale. My room was spacious and comfortable, a noteworthy issue I’ve encountered in my room is poor wifi connection and poor phone reception in the room. The walls are rather thick brick so the reception is blocked.

Rooms definitely not in the same condition as appear on their website. Tatty old lounge, cracks in walls, pillows that were past their use by. We paid for a king bed and room but were given a double room plus location on main road made it very noisey. Nothing like anywhere in the Cotswolds I’ve stayed!

The hotel is within walking distance of the town and has the added advantage of having one of the town's best restaurants. It is a good location to view nearby national parks.

Room was basic but clean. Toaster, microwave and kettle supplied. I had my mother who uses a walker with me and someone had parked in my park outside our unit. The receptionist didn’t see this as a problem and no where else to park so ended up parking as close to the other car as possible. Control of parking spaces needs to be vigilant when they are so limited.

Car parking inadequate

Room was OK but a bit well worn. Bedding was clean and comfortable. Unallocated car parking was a nightmare on a busy night. Size of spaces is a problem as many are restricted by veranda posts or trees and it impossible to fit a 4wd. Especially when at least 50% of the cars are 4wd.
