The communal lounge was great, fires throughout the hotel were great.

Shannon Australia

Location to the visitors centre for the mountain was convenient. Staff were very helpful and friendly. The fireplaces and sitting areas were so nice. I loved the hot spiced gin drink.

Selinahh Australia

Good common areas, warm open fires, cosy and relaxing atmosphere

Gerard Australia

Everything. Staff were great, facility lovely, great location.

Robinson New Zealand

Very spacious, comfortable room. Dinner meal was very substantial, comfort food.

Julie Australia

The room was clean and functional, with two double beds, a small desk and TV, and one bathroom. The bathroom had both a bathtub and a shower, which was nice. Our room had a tiny balcony that faced out into the forest, which allowed us to watch some lovely sunrises in the morning. The main draw of this hotel is its location and access to Cradle Mountain. It's about a 5 minute drive from the hotel to the visitor centre where you can catch the shuttle bus. The hotel itself features a boardwalk if you want to explore the surroundings, as well as a wildlife gallery.

Simeons Australia

Fantastic location staff were amazing especially when it starting snowing their advice about how to drive in the snow was spot on. Room was comfortable, views amazing great place to stay.

Alison Australia

Great spot to base yourself whilst at Cradle Mountain. Great room with good view. Loved the lodge type feel as supposed to feeling like a hotel. Friendly staff. The shared lounge/bar is a fantastic place to chat to other guests whilst having a drink. It snowed during our stay, making it that little more special.

  • we will have a hire car and not allowed to drive above the snow line.. We don't know what the snow line is. How high above sea level is the hotel please.. This may give us more of an idea of a snow line that people talk about.
    The hotel is at 800m and the snow line is 700 m so technically we are above the snow line, but I guess it depends if its sowing when you come
