Complimentary high speed wi-fi and a range of meeting rooms ensure it’s business as usual for corporate travellers, while the hotel’s wining and dining options make it easy to switch off after hours.

The Powerhouse is proud to be the ‘home away from home’ for country artists, musicians and industry since 1986. If you’re a country music fan why not stay in the Lee Kernaghan Suite or the Slim Dusty & Joy McKean Suite at the hotel, unveiled at the 2023 Tamworth Country Music Festival.

All seasonal menus at The Workshop Kitchen focus on fresh local New England produce. A wood-fired oven and grill are at the heart of the open kitchen – both are fired up daily with the finest local ironbark which imparts a unique smoked flavour. All beef is sourced locally including Willow Tree based Jack’s Creek Beef – multiple winner of the World’s Best Steak.

The restaurant’s outstanding wine list received a 3 Glass rating in Australia’s 2023 Wine List of the Year Awards – the first in the region to ever receive this accolade. The Workshop Kitchen is open daily from 6.30am for breakfast, lunch, dinner and every public holiday.

Enter the sophisticated Coal Bunker Bar open every day until late. A salubrious setting to enjoy an aperitif or nightcap or settle in for a top drop or cocktail at wine o’clock. The bar showcases an array of top shelf spirits, an entire whisky cabinet touring the globe alongside a sample of craft beers and local brews.

The hotel features five contemporary and versatile venue spaces for meetings, corporate functions, conferences, social events and weddings for up to 280 people.

Eco Friendly The Powerhouse is committed to energy and water conservation, recycling and waste reduction in our hotel. Our green initiatives include:

Soap Aid Ambassadors – we collect used hotel soaps for Soap Aid which recycles & sends the new soap bars to global communities facing major hygiene challenges. To date the 743kgs of used soap we collected has been converted into 7,430 new soap bars!

Green Choice – decline a daily housekeeping service & receive a Food & Beverage credit.

The hotel is easily identified by the obelisk at the front of the property. This was erected to recognise Tamworth as the first town in Australia and the southern hemisphere to provide its residents with electric street lighting. The hotel was built on the original power station or ‘powerhouse’ site – hence the name and celebration of this intriguing history throughout the hotel.

For motorbike enthusiasts, a visit to the onsite Powerhouse Motorcycle Museum is a must.

The team at The Powerhouse Hotel Tamworth by Rydges is looking forward to welcoming you during your next stay.
