Lovely hotel. Very basic but good for the price. The best part were the staff. Friendly and efficient and they remembered that I was hiking the Larapinta trail and made sure to ask me how it was when I returned. A lovely touch.

Fine for an overnight stay. I particularly appreciated the nice coffee/tea tray. The internet went out and there were few electrical outlets to plug in devices. No lift to the second floor, which was a bit odd. But clean and comfy bed.

The hotel was ok to stay in. The rooms were nice, great water pressure, conveniently located. We chose this hotel because it was the pickup point for our tour. Our only complaint (actually, my wife's, not mine) was that the carpeting in our room was old and stained. We were told by several people not to go out at night because Alice Springs is not safe. We googled it, that is true, it is the 18th most dangerous city in the world. But that is not the fault of the hotel. The hotel has a nice Italian restaurant attached to it, so there really is no need to go out at night.

I chose this hotel because it was central and it had good reviews. However on my arrival I found my room dark and gloomy and when I drew the curtains I was facing a concrete wall. The lift is out of the hotel across a car park and was absolutely filthy the pool is completely covered by a metal roof therefore also very dark and gloomy with some faded frayed Astroturf around it and a few tables and chairs certainly not somewhere you would wish to just spend a bit of downtime. The restaurant is accessed through the car park and the back door into the Terrace However the food was good and the staff were super friendly. I think the photos on the website are extremely misleading whilst the facilities in the room were good tea, coffee biscuits et cetera it was extremely shabby. I had some black mould on my ceiling and damp patches on the wall therefore I checked out the following day and found a different hotel.

Average stay. The staff were friendly and everything was in serviceable condition, but they didn’t change my sheets for the entire stay. I guess you have to ask specifically for that. The guest and free wifi both constantly dropped out though, at least once a day, but usually more. The number of cars that will be using the parking area isn’t actively restricted so if you’re parking later in the day you risk not getting a secure parking space.

The hotel is downtown Alice Springs. Lots of people roaming around. Door to our room did not seem to be sufficient for security, window to the bathroom was likely permanently open, although high off the ground, not secure. When we walked around the block into the city, there seem to be police and Rangers and security everywhere. We did not encounter any incidents but decided to change hotels to a more secure resort

Please bear in mind that we had just come from a lovely modern apartment in Perth so walking into the hotel room was a bit of a disappointment. It was large and spacious with doors leading out onto a shared balcony and smoking area.
Outside the room, was a lovely sitting area with BBQs.
Toiletries, milk and tea/coffee was provided in the room with a kettle. A coffee pod machine with pods was also provided.
Unfortunately we arrived during Australia day so not much was open.

This was a well located property near the mall, the pool was a bit average and not in the sun and really cold.
The two rooms I stayed in, didn’t seem to have any cold water in the taps only hot which was annoying.
Also the property needs better signage to restaurant, it was a confusing place with no signs to anything.
Room was comfortable (though check the window I was on ground floor and a huge window opened directly into the side street and was not locked. )
Otherwise ammenities and room were fine

outdated and dirty

positives:
Central location

Negatives:
(not all are the hotel's fault but you should still be aware)
dirty - lots of stains everywhere, weird smell, and found dead bug
water tastes bad (I didn’t have this issue anywhere else in Alice Springs)
the pool is falling apart, very dirty, and completely in the shade
no microwave
no soundproofing - you can hear other guests close their doors, walk around and talk
not secure - anyone can walk in the front door, the hotel room doors are exterior, locks on doors are outdated, woken up in the early hours (3am) to people yelling and fighting
The shower doesn’t drain properly so you're standing in a few inches of dirty water the whole shower it also has only one tiny holder to put your products
only one main light and it needs to be changed it flickers when you turn it on and is very dim
Do not disturb sign falls off easily - I was woken up by housekeeping staff to clean my room because the sign fell off

I guess it’s at the right price point. You get what you pay for, but security is poor. Someone was able to open my door at 1am in the morning. Only the security latch stopped them from getting access. I’ll assume it was an over intoxicated guest trying to access the wrong room and was able to access using another room key. Either that or someone else with more sinister motives. Reported to front desk. Wrecked a good nights sleep.

Comfortable and central

Good central spot in Alice Springs to jump off to other activities. Short walk to grocery and main entertainment area. Beds are comfortable and the showers are plenty hot. It is an older hotel, so reflects the same, but with clean comfortable beds and hot water we were happy. We had the portion of the hotel where the rooms are glass walls to the outdoor hallway, which was fine, but did mean we heard all the chatter outside when some locals decided to stay up all night talking.
We appreciated that all the outer doors were locked and could only be accessed with a room key.

I liked the locale. We changed to better room and we were pleased with it worth the extra money. The staff were obliging and friendly. One exception,more of that later. The restaurant “Bella “was attached to the hotel. Not sure about ownership. It was good and the beef cheeks were to die for. Open for breakfast lunch and dinner which was handy as restaurants were few in the area. But one big gripe. We were on holiday and waking up late and having a leisurely breakfast is one of our highlights! Service commenced at 7 and finished at 8.30! So no sleep in. The offerings were basic. And the eggs invariably cold as was the demeanour of the host, a very grumpy man. And guess what. No patronage. Big restaurant and almost empty.

This hotel feels more like a motel. You access the rooms via external corridors and the windows open onto the corridors. The location is great--right on the Todd Mall. The room itself was comfortable, with plenty of space to place my stuff. I was not pleased with breakfast. It included a limited selection of hot items and juice, tea of coffee. There was no fruit, cereal, or breads. I had a better breakfast by going two blocks to Woolies!

Pretty old and worn. Some pf the fixtures and fittings need a refresh. Door on my Deluxe room was stiff, cupboard doors on wardrobe came off the track and would not open and close. Dual access to the room was a little unnerving as it was unlocked before I entered.
Two saving graces were the shower, it was bloody amazing, and the comfortable bed. Not far to a Woolies and other places to town.
A bit overpriced for the quality of room.
