Alice Lodge Alice Springs offers a choice of dormitory and private rooms. Each room includes air conditioning and a refrigerator. Access to the internet kiosk is free. Alice Lodge is a charming and well-situated place that makes a great base for exploring the area. The location is spot on—quiet enough for a good night’s rest but still conveniently close to the city center. Everything is kept tidy and well-maintained, which really adds to the comfortable atmosphere. A special shoutout to the staff—they’re genuinely easygoing, approachable, and always ready to help within their means, making the whole experience that much more enjoyable. Highly recommended!
