It was an historic old hotel built in 1888 which is no longer licenced and instead operates with modern upstairs accommodation. The rooms we had were large and spotless. The manager Fiona was such a friendly person who was only too willing to help with anything. And Fiona contacted us after we left to tell us that she found $20 on the floor and how could she return it? The only negative to our stay was that the TV wasn't working, but that was because a severe electrical storm a couple of days earlier had taken all the TV's out and Fiona was waiting for a man to come and fix it. A minor inconvenience overall.
Just the TV not working as above.

We didn't eat there as we had to leave very early. In phone calls prior to arrival, plus when we arrived I can't speak too highly of Andrew. He was very welcoming and made sure we were aware of options. Andrew also showed an interest in finding out about where were from, so he could pass on to other travellers if they were going there. He also made sure he informed us about the time it would us from Tamworth and to be aware of the kangaroo danger in the evening.

The character of the building and the host were exceptional. There's a cinema in the Playhouse and an owner who's forgotten more about film than I'll ever know. The room was clean, with a fantastic shower. Food from the Playhouse was also great. Highly recommended for anyone passing through the area.

The classiest place to stay in Barraba: excellent communication, warm welcome, comfortable room with a view of the main drag, well insulated from sound of passing trucks, lots to explore in the hotel with an informative host; freshly cooked breakfast. we were very happy to stay!
Few guests, so no dinner offered: Commercial Pub meal was just ok.

while I did not meet the owner Andrew as he had a medical emergency he and his staff went overboard ensuring or arrival would be smooth and hassle free which it was. The Playhouse is a boutique hotel which a normal traveler as I would not generally stay at however when I was researching accommodation I saw the Playhouse and just had to give it a go. Barraba is a country town that appears to struggling and it is good to see people like Andrew taking on projects like the Playhouse to generate interests in the town. We dined at the hotel’s restaurant and while the menu was small the food was first class and the restaurant staff were to be commended. I just wish I lived closer so I could return on a regular basis.
the fact I only stayed one night

Very friendly, entertaining and accommodating host, that made us feel at home. The dinner and breakfast was lovely and location in the middle of the quiet town was superb.

Andrew was very friendly & accomodating with everything.

it’s a nicely restored country hotel, complete with its own small cinema all in keeping with the art-deco style. But the highlight without doubt was the hospitality provided by the owner/host Andrew, and his small team of staff.

6.0
Very comfortable modern room, however facilities were very limited and so were practicalities like bench space. Made it difficult as travelling with food and the town didn't offer many options.
Didn't provide any kitchenette facilities except tea/coffee, and bench space was very limited. Practicalities for travellers didn't seem to have been been thought through.
