​The Saint Kilda Hotel - Armidale

This is a classic old pub lodging that dates back to the 1950s and earlier. The rooms are now outdated and overpriced, but at $40 per night for a single room, it is a decent value. However, those looking for luxury, cleanliness, and a private bathroom will need to pay more elsewhere. Despite this, guests can enjoy a satisfactory pub meal downstairs. While it may not be the most impressive place to bring friends, it serves its purpose and is a convenient option for budget travelers.

I want to express my gratitude to Liza for being so kind and welcoming. Our visit to the restaurant was enjoyable. The meal portions were satisfying and the prices were reasonable, just what you would expect at a pub. We especially appreciated the cozy fire that was lit for us. Although we are not used to the Armidale climate this time of year, Liza made us feel right at home. And let's not forget to mention that Liza pours a perfect Guinness. Thank you for a wonderful experience.

This pub is ideal for motorcyclists looking for a place to stay for a few nights. As a journalist who is also a motorcyclist, I appreciate the option to lock my bike under the deck overnight. The location at the edge of the CBD is perfect. The rooms could use some improvement, but the bed was comfortable and the bathroom was clean. At $40 a night for a private room, it's good value. The dinner prices were excellent at $10, with a choice of 3 meals. While the food was nothing to rave about, it was better than the nearby McDonald's.

If you're after a quick pub feed and the decor and ambience is of no consequence then the Saint Kilda hotel is a gem. All the usual suspects from crumbed cutlets to parmas and great value steak. Management, pleeeease put some background music on in...the dining room to lift the spirits of your diners on a cold winters night.

Great service from friendly staff, delicious meals using fresh ingredients and the prices are so low we wonder how they can do it. Never disappoints.
