Hotel Grande is nicely located on the old main road, about a 3-5 minute drive to Tamworth CBD, depending on the star rating of your Uber driver. Shout out to Warren. Legend.
Upon pulling into the hotel area, you're met with a quaint little 11 units/rooms so not overly busy, if at all. During checking in, hotel staff were very polite and helpful and did whatever they could to accommodate you.
I read reviews on this place before booking and after what seemed like nothing but good things being said, I booked this room for $130 a night, (which based off reviews seemed to good to be true) and expected $130 standards (not in a good way). Walking into the room, I was stoked. The room was clean, spacious, beds were comfortable and the shower was probably the best water pressure I'd ever had in a room. Although the shower was a little small, it felt homely so that was a nice touch. The air con worked first go straight away, no 10 minute delay and the roller shutters were a good addition and easily operated. TV was new and gave options for all channels and digital movie services to log into your account.
Housekeeping fixed everything and replaced all things that were used and it was done well. 5/5 there.
I'll just say this. I've stayed in a lot of places in Tamworth and I'd say this was the best place besides The Powerhouse. But if im looking for great value, great amenities and service, this is it. I'd honestly stay here over The Powerhouse and will book every time I go back.
