Tenterfield Motor Inn

This motel needs some maintenance. My room was ok but the fittings are sub standard. The TV had a digital box and the cables hung fown in front of the window. Tje shower doesn't drain quick enough leaving you standing in 10 cm of water and the floor pan creaks and moves under your feet. It is also a bit noisy being close to the main road. The parking is undercover which was a bonus.

No lights outside only 2 towels for 3 people and pillows where flat and not enough 1/2 a roll toilet paper no one at reception after check in would be hesitating to stay again no one to ask about anything

Good location on NE Hwy. Good price. Clean. I arrived fairly late on a cool evening and appreciated that they had put on the heating so it was warm when I got there. A continental breakfast was included which was a bonus.

While interstate, my wife had a sudden admission to the Campbelltown hospital ICU. At 2pm I fronted to the Poplars and explained my situation. Tori was fantastic. There was no vacancy , but she heard my situation, and comtacted there maintenance person. A family cabin was quickly cleared for my son and me to stay in, and we had 3 nights there. I cannot express how much I appreciated their kindness.

I would like to say that the room was generally clean and comfortable. However, the lack of crockery and cutlery is an ongoing issue with this hotel. Not everyone is feeling like going out for meals after driving all day and when ordering take out or bringing your own food it is necessary to have the means to serve and eat it. The bear minimum in the way of complimentary toiletries is provided, hand wash was not included. A small plastic jug half full of water is not a suitable healthy alternative to Bottled water which should be provided for drinking and coffee or tea. Mostly the television did not have service, sound only and no picture only. There were no extra pillows provided and the ones that were provided were very thin and flat.

Lovely room, spacious and comfortable and quiet. We only stayed overnight and didn't have time to enjoy the features of Tenterfield per se, but know it is a lovely place to visit overall. It has an interesting history, many lovely historical buildings and some great cafes for coffee and lunches.
