United Kingdom“The room was fairly standard, nothing other than your bunk and a bin - saying this you dont need much more in the outback. You get what you pay for and personally I think this was perfect for my trip, low cost, fairly comfortable bunk, good...” - Ting
Australia“Very convenient location. This hotel is the last stop of the shuttle bus that goes around Uluru town (which means it's usually the last stop for pick-up and drop-off for tours). The 4-female dorm room was priced reasonably. The bed was good...” - Lisa United States“Convenient location - close to Uluru and Kata Tjuṯa. And not far from other properties and the grocery store. I liked the restaurants and bar area also and the pool was nice for when it was hot outside.”
- Martha United States“They offered a reasonable price compared to the other hotels in the area. It had a fun atmosphere with a great restaurant. It was very clean and comfortable.”
- Samantha Australia“Kind and accommodating staff helped us with early check-in. Our room was clean and even though we booked a 4 person dorm we had it to ourselves.”
- Robert United States“Even before arriving, the Outback Lodge sent me very helpful information about visiting Uluru/Ayers Rock. For example they sent me the time schedule for the Hop-On-Hop-Off bus so that I could plan my visit more carefully.”
- Antoine Australia“The dorm was clean, the common bathrooms were clean at all time, A/C in the dorm, the swimming pool area, the restaurant/bar area was nice at night and the view point as well was great to watch the sunset with view over Uluru and Kata Tjuṯa”
