We stayed here for 2 nights during a family outback trip. The accommodation was a block of old style demountable cabins in two rows facing each other. If you expect anything above very, very basic you will be disappointed. The beds were inadequate and the rooms tiny and dirty. The bathroom was about 50 metres away along a dirt pathway and shared with various other guests. During the night various guests could be heard talking as the rooms had paper thin walls, and there was little privacy.
The Hotel itself is about 300 metres away and serves excellent gourmet meals and the staff were friendly and helpful. The bar is full of outback memorabilia so take your camera. As William Creek is a long way from anywhere else there's very little choice.
This is probably the closest place to the Western side of Lake Eyre, but still a long drive away.

We have traveled the 5 continents, visiting many countries and stayed in accommodation in 3rd world countries. At WC we stayed in the Camp Site accommodation and it has to rate as the worst accommodation we have ever stayed in on holiday. I note from previous reviews comments that one should not expect any facilities with the accommodation??? Why not, the pleasure of staying in places adds greatly to the enjoyment of the holiday but in the case of WC we stayed 2 nights which was 2 nights to many. We had a box room with a bed in it and not a lot else at prices that elsewhere on our trip we were getting very comfortable accommodation. Our expectations were not very high but the Camp Site cabins I would not recommend to anyone.
I did not see the Hotel accommodation so cannot comment on it, and it may be ok for camping.

Lake Eyre Tours brought us here on a weekend adventure. A refreshing stop on a brilliant 3 days of flying.

This was one of the highlights of the trip. The couple running the pub were genuinely friendly, the beer was cold as and I had arguably the best hamburger I have ever eaten. I checked out the rooms while we were there and if you find anything to whine about then you shouldn't be outback. I personally will be travelling back to William Creek Pub, even if only for a beer and some genuine hospitality, but I reckon I'll stay a while.
