Tamworth’s City Sider Motor Inn has been sold, with new owners taking over a 39-room motel within walking distance of the CBD.
The sale comes as visitors keep arriving for the Tamworth’s many festivals, music and its equine events, and as the city plans for a bigger future.
“City Sider offers an appealing well positioned accommodation, close to the commercial heart of Tamworth,” said selling agent Malcolm Mathie.
“For accommodation owners, the appeal of a regional city extends beyond its tourism profile.”
“Business activity, regional services and investment all contribute to the reasons people travel, and Tamworth provides a compelling mix of those drivers.”
Tamworth’s Blueprint 100 strategy guides planning towards a regional population of 100,000, with an emphasis on infrastructure, employment, and liveability. Structure plans have also been adopted for the Southern Gateway, the Kootingal residential growth area, and the Tamworth Sports and Entertainment Precinct.
Investment is flowing too, including the $5 million International Flight Training Tamworth facility upgrade identified in the NSW Government’s 2026-27 Budget.
MQ & Associates negotiated the freehold sale, with selling agents Mr Mathie and Ray Larkin managing the deal.
The recently renovated motel sits on Marius Street, on about 3,350 square metres. Its rooms come in a range of configurations to suit corporate travellers, couples, families, and groups.
Guests also have an outdoor swimming pool, a barbecue area, a guest laundry, and courtyard parking. The CBD’s shops, cafรฉs, and restaurants are an easy walk away.
“The motel’s proximity to the CBD, dining precinct and local services is a significant practical advantage for guests, whether they are visiting for work, an event or a leisure stay,” said selling agent Ray Larkin.
“With 39 upgraded rooms and a variety of configurations, City Sider provides an established platform for its incoming owners.”
“Tamworth’s ongoing investment and planning for growth add further context to the property’s long-term appeal.”
