The deer were gorgeous- the pool facility was clean and easy to access. The room was spacious, bed was fabulously comfortable. Bathroom needed maintenance (handbasin). Missed breakfast due to sleeping in - maybe next time….. Would definitely stay again.

We wouldn’t stay here again

The guy at reception was nice but our room was less than impressive. The toilet seat was filthy and hadn’t been cleaned. There was also a huge gap under the door that 2 cockroaches and a cricket crawled under. I had to chase them around. Man, crickets are fast, and they can fly! I ended up scrunching up the footer thing at the end of the bed and using it to block the gap. Definitely the kind of place where you wear thongs in the shower. To top it off, the smell of cigarette smoke and weed was coming through our door all night, from our neighbour in the next room, reaking havoc with my asthma. They offer a free breakfast, but my wife wasn’t interested in eating here. We were glad to get out of there.

The room I stayed in was big and roomy. And very quiet, I didn't hear any noise. The main curtain was thick and heavy and blocked out most of the outside light. A good supply of tea and coffee and towels. Yes I would be happy to stay again if I am in Armidale.

It was lovely staying at the Deer Park Motor inn, their USP is deers, very well maintained and affordable. We and our daughter loved playing with deers and feeding them. Definitely if we are going to come again to Armidale it’s going to our stay.

They say you get what you pay for and thankfully all we wanted was a comfortable bed to sleep in and anice how shower. We got both, but I have to comment about the huge job that lays ahead to fix the pavers on the driveways.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We were disappointed about the overall condition of the property. We used to live in Armidale and remember this motel in excellent condition. The surrounds are unkept, the dinning was very limited- not what was advertised. The condition of the bathroom was very poor- mould, soap scum in the bath and broken hairdryer and bath surrounds. The bed was comfortable, the shower hot and when called to bring towels, as none had been left, the manager was prompt. Unfortunately we will not recommend this property nor will we be staying here again. We have a large family funeral in the next few weeks and will not recommend the Deer Park Motel.
