Fantastic staff, food at restaurant was great and easy walking access to town centre. 20-30mins from Uluru with lots of tour and transfer options if you don't have a car.

Heidi Australia

Good hotel to stay in Ayers Rock Resort. Rooms were good size and comfortable. good bar area for eating and was lively. The BBQ area with buffet was worth doing. Will stay again when next back in Ayers Rock.

Alexander Norway

Location was good as central to the township and the main point for travelers to go to for music and socializing etc. Facilities were very good to cook up your own meal or options to go to a restaurant. Some of the hotel staff were very helpful.

Edwin Australia

Staff were efficient, friendly, and helpful. Airport transfer was well organised and on time.

Carl United States of America

The 350 gm T-Bone steak at the 3 Course Buffet Dinner was magnificent and cooked to perfection. For $48.00, you get unlimited soup, salad and dessert selection of excellent quality. The mains only had a selection of 7 dishes but seemed fine to me.

Neville Australia

the breakfast was lovely everything u could need service was excellent. the bar service at night was great and staff were happy. dinners at night in the restaurant also had excellent service.

Gail Australia

I was expecting mediocre facilities, due to the fact it is a hotel/hostel (we stayed in our own room so review is not for the shared rooms) But it was nice! Rooms are big, clean and up to date. It has the only bar/take away alcohol in the town! Food was good. Pool/washers/dryers. Great transportation to and from the different parts of town. No need to rent a car or go for the more expensive options!

Susana United States of America

Clean and comfortable room. Convenient to Uluru park. This was the most reasonably priced hotel (non dormitory) room in the area. Staff was excellent.

Stephen United States of America

The Pioneer Hotel was a great place to stay. It is a quaint hotel. Feels like you are in the outback but has all features of everyday life.

Jenny United States of America

Spacious room, reasonably good internet. Nice to have a bar and low-cost dining option on site.

Bellingham United States of America

Great location!
