Property is a little dated. Our group was split in opposite parts of the property. The pathways are not well lit when walking at night from main lobby to cabins. Dinner in restaurant was excellent.

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
This resort is massively overpriced. Staff disinterested and overheard using foul language about guests when they thought they were alone. Accommodation is aged and poorly serviced. No wifi or telephone connectivity. No television. There are other options and I recommend you look into them if visiting Cradle Mountain

Hubby and I opted for a cabin stay, it was everything we were hoping for. Verandah overlooking trees, seeing different types of bird and listening to nature was the relaxing get away we needed. There are walking trails around the lodge where you can see watwr flows, wombats, wallabies and some snow along the water beds. We'd definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely stay again if we are ever back in the area. The room was spacious and had everything we needed, the breakfast/dinner options and quality are better than several places I have stayed at and staff were excellent both really friendly and helpful. The nearby walks and wildlife were great and the hotel is conveniently located for accessing Cradle Mountain.
