Nice to rest your head

Quick and easy check in, with complimentary beer to quench the thirst! Bed was comfortable and the shower had good pressure. Stayed on a Saturday night… rookie error- the pub next door was noisy until around 1am. The pool was refreshing in the heat of the day. Will be back

When we returned to our room at 9:30 PM, we were unable to open the door as the lock was broken. Thankfully, the staff were very helpful and assisted us promptly. Additionally, the spa bath in the room was not working, which was disappointing.

Great location for the Entertainment Centre & Waxworks. Easy drive to town centre & other attractions. The pub next door serves good food but can get noisy in the evenings due to live bands. We were there on Friday & Saturday so maybe should have expected it.

Excellent Stay at Golden Guitar Motor Inn

I stayed at the Golden Guitar Motor Inn for two nights while in Tamworth for work, and it was an excellent experience. The room was spotless, the bed was comfortable, and the showers were fantastic—just what I needed after a long day. One of the highlights was the convenience of walking out the gate to the Longyard Hotel, where I enjoyed great meals and entertained clients each night. The reception team was fabulous, making me feel welcome from the moment I arrived. I was even offered a beverage on arrival, which was a lovely touch. For a comfortable and convenient stay in Tamworth, the Golden Guitar Motor Inn is a top choice.
