Very basic accommodation. The AC was so noisy. There is a window above the door so the lights from the hallway shine all night long. On the plus side, a great pub and good food.

Great outback hotel in St George

We flew to St George to experience a remote town - we were very happy with our choice of destination, and equally happy to choose The Australian Hotel. The rooms were good, the bar was vibrant, the beer was cold, and the river walk just outside the hotel was excellent. My only criticism was the $41 steak, cooked and served in beef country, did not meet our expectations.

The staff made checking in really difficult, no one present at the desk and no one answering the phone. When we did check in, the receptionist provided no instructions on how to access our room (hotel at the back of the pub) or how to check out the following day. The room was clean and tidy. The pub does a lovely meal.

There isn't much to like about this hotel. Its far too noisy (from the bar area and the industrial air conditioner outside the drive-through bottle shop) at night as well as early in the morning (music and loud conversations outside my room at 5am). The room had damp carpet. The fridge stopped working and the water was intermittent. In the hotel / bar area, the staff appear to be uninterested in friendly customer service. Overall, not a good experience.

Rooms were good. The lady who checked us in was very friendly and was nice enough changed our room as there was going to be a live band. Food was great, big meals for the price. Atmosphere was great, sitting inside or outside.

‘Housekeeping’ ruined the stay. Check in was easy and wonderful and much appreciated, I was aware there would be noise as it’s beside the pub, and it was louder than I expected, but the aircon did help muffle it. I was very tired and didn’t get to sleep until the early hours as there were many people making noise outside. I understand all of that. But housekeeping started cleaning rooms at 0630 with a ludicrously noisy vacuum cleaner. I finally got back to sleep about 8, and at 0830 there was a loud bang on the door and “housekeeping”, I’m guessing hoping they could knock off early. Check out is 10. The pub noise I understand, selfish staff taking the few quiet hours I do not. Hopefully management amends this.
