Tibooburra Hotel
The only two storey building in town.
"It is the oldest of the two hotels left remaining in Tibooburra and was built of locally cut sandstone in 1882. The sandstone was transported to town by horse and cart and then hand-cut and hand- chipped to form the beautiful stone structure which remains today.
The hotel has twelve very clean and comfortable rooms, each with
different bed configurations. All rooms have air-conditioning."
