"Unique old building with secure parking. My room was noisy and cold due to an open window which could not be closed as the glass didn't fit the window frame. The shared kitchen had no tea, milk was frozen in the fridge, the fridge was full of broken glass water bottles the had frozen, the kitchen sink tap was not secure, the shower curtain was dirty , the shower head was broken and would stay on place."

"Clean room and spacious. We had the king room which is the best option. Usual motel facilities. It is close to two service stations so food and fuel is readily available. You need to drive in to the Port Augusta CBD."

"It was a nice stay. Highly recommend, good stop over for the night."

"Great stay very clean and tidy. Everything you would need in the cabin. Only down side is the trucks and being told to lock everything up because people wander through the park. We think someone was outside our cabin as there was a cigarette lighter on the ground in the morning that wasn’t there when we arrived."

"Parking was in front of room."

"Can’t fault Wilpena Ponds Resort. Check in was easy & staff very helpful. Our room , Brachina was very comfortable. We had dinner both nights in the restaurant. It is not a 5 star resort, but remember you are in the Australian outback & to have something this comfortable is amazing. Would recommend & stay again"

"Great location in the Flinders ranges, clean and functional rooms and a lovely restaurant onsite"

"Nice parking lot with shade The room is just a perfect for someone who wants to try underground ”living“ The kitchen is nice and fridge has plenty of room for everyone "

"The idea of staying an underground hotel was exciting & the accommodation itself was quite basic (comparable to the price). Unfortunately there was a lot lacking, particularly customer service and cleanliness. We arrived mid-afternoon and reception was closed - a note on the door to go to the bar/restaurant to check-in - which we did. The staff member advised that reception was on their break and we would have to wait, no indication of how long and now attempt to check us in... About 30 minutes later we checked in, all OK. We were presented with a document titled 'Hotel Information' and the attendant when through the information on the front page. What was not communicated on the other side of the document was that as an in-house guest we were entitled to a 15% discount on food (we paid full price) & that the room would only be serviced by request (notwithstanding in the bathroom there was a sign saying that linen and towels would be changed every 3 days). We stayed 4 nights, no servicing of the room during this time. Whether you're going green or trying to save a few $$ - understandable in this economy - as a guest I would prefer that a hotel be transparent about what they will or won't provide during a guests stay. Overall hotel is in a great location, quite tired, common areas not cleaned regularly and the service needs significant adjustment. Just a pity because a stay underground is something quite unique."
