Stayed a little while ago here with work. There was about 200 of us and checkin went well. Room was basic but had everything we needed. Pool was great and played tennis and used the gym. Bar facilities were great. Short walk to casino and had no reason to go into town. Overall good stay. Good breakfast More

Room was large and comfortable with lovely mountain views.The decor could do with a facelift as a bit dated.All the staff were friendly and helpful and it proved to be an ideal base to return to after visiting Uluru and Kings Canyon which were long days out.I would recommend this hotel when visiting Alice Springs.

We stayed here on two occassions, both at the beginning and end of a tour to Central Australia. The staff were very helpful and accommodating to our needs, and went out of their way to confirm our tour booking. The accommodation is comfortable, the pool area is enjoyable, and the rates are very reasonable. I had some dramas in the... More

As a regular visitor to Alice Springs I always stay here. Staff turnover seems to be quite high, but is more a reflection of the industry in Alice. Nevertheless they are quite good, and this is still the best hotel in town. Hanuman's Restaurant is fantastic, but a separate entity to the hotel (others in Darwin and Cairns). Management is... More

We did stay two nights in this hotel, the situation is perfect, located just a 10 min walk to the center of the city. It's a really nice place to stay and the big plus is the Thai restaurant who is delicious, we also ordered a meal in our room and it was good too. The pool is great, there... More

Well we stayed here for only one night, but I think that suited me pretty well. The room was kind of not clean (although I am a bit of a clean freak), there was someone else's hair in the bathroom :-/ The outside balcony had nice views of the ranges and the thousands of cigarette butts on the grass below....

Great room with view of MacDonnell Ranges. Hotel is a 20 minute walk away from Alice centre which was not a problem for us during the relatively cool weather. However it was slightly concerning that the staff advised us not to do the trip after dark. Extortionate breakfast ($21) obviously aimed at the business traveller More
