A must do, underground rooms cut out of the rock, cool, comfortable way to experience an amazing part of audtralia

We were welcomed at check in by smiling staff and were able to park our camper van in the courtyard. It was a welcome night in a hotel after camping for the last three nights. The room has a great bed and pillows for a comfortable sleep. All the amenities you would expect. The sandstone makes for a brilliant red... More

My husband and I stayed in one of the underground rooms at the Desert Cave Hotel on our way to Uluru. It was a great experience. The room was clean and modern, although you do get a little bit of dust from the earth walls. The king size bed was comfortable and the in house movies were good. The bathroom... More

It really has the ambitions to be a 4star hotel. But there are a few shortcomings that keep me from agreeing. The staff is... More

As I note in another recent review we also stayed here for two nights as part of a Lake Eyre holiday package. I had previously stayed at the hotel in 1995 and it is exactly as I remembered it. It is, of course, very different being the "world's only underground international hotel" and being located in one of the more... More

Recently visited the Desert Cave for a planned 2 night's accommodation as part of a flying adventure to the region incorporating a flight over Lake Eyre but due to an unexpected problem with the aircraft we spent an additional 3 nights in a unique underground four star room. The room itself was great, supported by excellent quality and choice of... More
