Best Cradle Mountain Hotels

It was raining all the way on the drive to the hotel, so it was great to arrive at a nice hotel. The room was not super modern but it was clean. As it was still raining, we enjoyed the comfortable lounge areas with a fireplace outside the room, to do some reading and catch up with other travellers. The buffet breakfast which was included was excellent. The hotel is a short drive to the visitors center where you can catch the shuttle bus (for a fee) to Dove Lake.

The favorite experience of the entire trip to Australia! First, diagonally opposite the visitor center, you can walk to the park by foot. Each building is an independent cabin, very clean and tidy, with solid wood furniture and flooring, and modern kitchen TV DVDs. You can experience your own fire and warmth, and there is an electric heater in the room. The best thing is that there are small kangaroos that don't promote feeding, but they can be observed at close range and close to nature. It is recommended to eat more with wine and stay in the hut for a few more days. I regret not taking some potatoes and sweet potatoes. I can throw them directly in the stove. Will go again!

Very satisfied! The location is just opposite the scenic area service center, and the car is parked in front of the cabin. Although it was a super windy day in summer, we still turned on the heater, which was very useful. The kitchen was well equipped (there are no supermarkets nearby, so you need to purchase in advance). The restaurant's breakfast and dinner are limited and require reservations. After all, there are limited staff there, and we didn't try it because we didn't have time. You can go to the restaurant to buy coffee, which tastes okay. The restaurant is in a great location with a view of Cradle Mountain. The front desk lady is very friendly, pay attention to the check-in time.

The ledge is nestled into the forest with wildlife appearing regularly. Lovely peaceful surroundings. The rooms are 70s style cabins with a nice fireplace for cold winter evenings. No internet or TV but I think this is probably how it should be. It is over priced. That’s just the reality but for a short stay it’s fine

We managed to do early check-in before official time. However, we realised the cottage was not clean at all as rubbish wasn't cleared, floors not vacuumed & towels left hanging around, likely by previous guests. So we had to return to reception to feedback & they immediately got housekeeping to do the job. Reception staff could do better with more smiles though. Cottage was quite roomy for 2 pax, but could be a bit tight if 4 pax were to stay together. Pretty basic accommodation but it was strategically located near Cradle Mountain visitor centre. Overall, a unique experience to stay in a mountain cottage like this, just that free WiFi was only available at reception & not in the cottage itself.
