We stayed here for 1 night as part of an AAT Kings tour. Having driven from Uluru (5 hours) we were happy to arrive and the coach took us to our room as it was at the far end of the resort. The standard room was fairly simple but reasonable size and clean enough. Only one restaurant was open (bistro... More

Hello from Kings Canyon, Thank you for staying with us!... you were here amongst the most amazing ancient landscape scenery in central Australia.

During our recent trip to the NT, I proposed to my partner while we were in Kings Canyon (she said a resounding yes luckily). I highly recommend making the time to visit KC and do either the Kings Creek Walk or if possible, the longer KC Rim walk – our highlight over Uluru. We decided to stay at the KC... More

King’s Canyon “Resort” is close to the only game in town if you are going to visit King’s Canyon and stay overnight (non-camping). We read the reviews prior to going, and for the most part, if you don’t have overly high expectations, you will be OK. The hotel itself is very basic, and our room was not the “upgraded” spa... More

Hello happy travelers, I thank you for contributing to the Kings Canyon Resort reviews, “people like to hear your opinion” The Kings Canyon Rim is by far one of the most spectacular landscapes and walks I have ever done. During my time here as GM, I’ve really enjoy hearing how much people enjoyed the walk and how they fell in... More

The first thing to bear in mind about this "resort" is that it is a long way from anywhere. Therefore you have to factor in the logistics of transporting everything into the resort and the resultant extra cost and availability. We had two rooms in different parts of the resort and they were comfortable but not luxurious. There are limited... More

Hello from Kings Canyon. We can see that you stayed here nearly 5 months ago… Time fly’s, We do agree, the Camel Burgers are simply awesome, but as you’d expect, after busy season, we consolidate and renovate where needed, many changes have happened since your visit. We now have the main Restaurant open and the other two smaller Bistro and... More

Usually campgrounds are per car, not per person so as a couple this place was expensive! If you drive further north I believe there were some free camping places by the side of the road that weren't marked in Camp 6. The camp kitchen tiny and was so basic, the pool was ok but not much shade. Basically it's the... More

G'Day from Kings Canyon, thanks for staying with us in the campground, don't you just love the views towards the Carmichael's Crag (the mountain range) the Campground has the best position and the best views from anywhere across the Resort. Many people mention that we have such a great oasis resort in the middle of nowhere. It's hard to compare... More

If you're going to Kings Canyon this is your only choice. It provides a laid back, rustic atmosphere and a very satisfying experience, if you are not expecting a luxury resort.
