We stayed in the backpacker style accommodation. Very small and basic room. Luckily there was only 2 of us. Can't imagine having 4 person sleeping in a room. Good to have a reversed cycle split system in the room. Shared bathroom and toilet facilities. Depend on where your room is located it can be a challenge to go to toilet... More

Grossly overpriced for what it is. I suppose because it's the only lodging available in the area, it's easy to overcharge, so I guess it depends on whether a bed and a shower is worth it. After four nights of camping my boyfriend and I opted for a room to clean up and get some rest, and while the accommodation... More

This is the basic accommodation for this destination. It is the cheapest of the 3 Resorts here. The noise from the open bar and lounge area extends well into the night from live entertainment. Get a room well away from there if you are a light sleeper. Generous size rooms are set in clusters of 2 or 3 and spread... More

Part of the Ayers Rock Resort hotels (all run by Accor) - this is the cheapest option. We stayed in the standard rooms which had a double bed, a single bed & ensuite bathoom. There's also a backpacker option with common washrooms. The room we had was a little dated in decor but had everything you required for a comfortable... More

Nothing is cheap in this area. If you are really picky, you will not be happy. You might want to look at the very more expensive option in the area. The room was clean and adequate. We were there three nights. The food is really expensive. Bring what you can and buy at the grocery store what you need. There... More

I am glad we stayed at the Outback. It may be the cheapest option and the rooms may be standard, but it's the most fun. If you are young and not with a giant tour group, stay here. The restaurant is fun. You pick your own meat and grill it yourself with an all you can eat salad bar. Grab... More

Ok, so this place is not the Taj Mahal. And it is on the pricey side, but you are in the middle of the Outback...it's not like it's easy to ship in every creature comfort. This place was perfectly fine for us...clean, comfortable, plenty of towels and more TV channel options than we had at our Sydney hotel. But let's... More

If you're not bothered about the accommodation then this is a good base. The room we had was a 2 bed...one double/queen bed and a single.
