Room was old fashioned in style but large, clean and comfortable. Unfortunately the restaurant wasn’t open and we had to go into town.

Could not fault anything about the room - clean, modern, spacious, with a comfortable bed. Nor could I fault the service - extremely friendly and professional. Unfortunately the restaurant was closed during my stay. The only minor issue for some may be the proximity to the Sturt Hwy (right on the hwy), but I knew this when I booked and it didn’t bother me. Excellent value for money and I would definitely stay again.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Not sure I’d recommend

Lots of little flying bugs and a few cockroaches in the room. The pool was nice until some kid puked in it. Also a woman was drinking beer who clearly couldn’t read as no glass was allowed in the pool area. On the plus side the bed was comfy, great location and reception was fast.

We enjoyed our stay at the Australian Homestead. Whilst the location is a little outside of Wagga Wagga the attached restaurant was excellent for our evening meal.
