I stay at this place often during summer as a mountain biker. Its awesome value for money it has everything that is required when it comes to a basic room. The spa is great for relaxing a sore body after a hard days biking. I often use the lounge area upstairs in the evening its quiet, warm and comfortable. Staff... More

my family and i have been coming to Mt Buller for three years now and usual love being there but this year we couldn't wait to go home. We normally stay at one of the uni ski clubs but couldn't this year so thought we would stay here instead. The website showed a nice room and thought $420 for three... More

Hi we recently stayed at alpine retreat and found it good value for money and reasonable accom. The facilities at the lodge were good. My 2 sons stayed with me and had a great time in the kids games room and enoyed the use of the indoor spa and pool which was a fantastic set up. Although the lodge is... More

We got an amazing "shoulder season" price to stay at Alpine Retreat at Mt Buller last September. Thank god we got an amazing price as it was like Faulty Towers. The transfer from Melbourne took over 4 hours (try that with kids who have already been on a plane for several hours). They advertise it is less than 3 hours... More

Stayed here in January for mountain bike race, great value for money, staff are friendly and helpful, good distance to everything in village. Will definitely be staying here when I finally come to see the snow this winter!

We booked the Hoquwa apartment for a long weekend at the end of August. We paid more than A$800 a night for what turned out to be a grubby, shabby, run-down disappointment. It could best pass for a student hostel, but advertises itself as "premier accommodation'' and shockingly, the apartments are described as "deluxe.'' There was nothing deluxe about it.... More

We manage to book this hotel easily via phone/email after going through their website. We are a couple with one child. The distance from the main skiing village was good that you don't need to hire a cab ride to it if you're not carrying too much. We had one big luggage and only a few hand carries. Upon arrival,...

cheapish option during ski season, staff very nice, & food good with flexible options for kids at reasonable prices. However, surely with the money the owners are making during winter, they could replace the mattresses - even my 12yr old couldn't sleep on one of the beds. Our room & other general areas not very clean either.

My 5 year old granddaughter and I stayed at Alpine Retreat from 10 - 15 July 2011. Here is my review. I have been coming to Mt. Buller since the 1960s - this is now the third generation learning to ski at Buller. I cannot agree with the official 3.5 star rating but would give it a 2.5 star rating.... More
