"Beautiful views! Glamping tents were so spacious and the kitchenette was so well appointed. Michelle was very welcoming and even built a fire for roasting marshmallows. A great alternative choice for staying near Alice Springs. Only 10 minutes from town. We stayed in July, which was pretty cold in the mornings though we did sleep warm with comforters and electric blankets. It was getting up and moving for breakfast that was a little challenging as it was so cold. The views and atmosphere make...

Top The Gap Hotel Reviews

Diplomat Hotel Alice Springs

4/10 Poor

"The desk staff were very helpful and attentive. The location was central .The bed was comfortable . The room was not very clean on arrival there was mascara smudges on the bathroom bench that wiped off with a cloth. The hotels claims to do a tidy each day however they did not replace towels even when dirty ones were removed. Twice I had to go to reception and ask for fresh towels. They only seemed to tuck in the sheets on the bed and that was the tidy."

Elkira Court Motel

6/10 Okay

"The hotel manger asked for $350 cash to hold in case of damages to the room. Upon check out he went through the room and found an empty soda bottle and a white croc sandal under the bed, neither of which were the guests, but took $50 from the cash held for the room because garbage was left. The room was $210 per night, I would expect this to include cleaning the room and removing garbage. He was handing out garbage bag to other guest making them clean their own rooms before leaving. All guests happen to also be Indigenous. I am not Indigenous and never in my well over 1000 stays in hotels have ever encountered this situation. In fact if something was left i would probably be contacted not charged $50. Don't stay here and support such racists behaviour. I will be taking this further."

Desert Palms Alice Springs

4/10 Poor

"Positives: -Outside grounds and lanes appeared well maintained. Negatives: -Unit had dim lighting. - air conditioning unit dripped water on daughter’s bed. When I moved the bed away from under the a/c unit, there were a number of dead bugs under the bed, and my daughter wouldn’t see there. -bathroom was very sparse, and the shower stall had been poorly maintained. -bedding was old and well worn. -staff was nonexistent -"
