| "My wife and I dined at the Outback BBQ on both nights we stayed.
First night: I ordered t-bone steak with onions and the staff member asked "You want two barramundis, sir?" Say WHAT!!!!!!!??????
Second night: I ordered one salad bar PLUS one extra salad bar and an additional emu sausage. I was asked if I wanted two salad bars plus an emu sausage meal. I went through the process a second time, was charged for one salad bar. I asked where was my second meal and was given a small bread and butter plate. Still no alteration to the price. I advised the staff member I would try again, asked for two salad bars and one additional emu sausage with one of them. The staff member finally got the message, charged me accordingly, and I commented to her that wasn't all that difficult, was it? And she called me rude. I believe I had every reason to be short, but rude? I don't think so. The staff member was not unintelligent, I don't think, a little unprepared to listen, I DO think. My orders could not have been put in more simple terms, and, I add, on two separate nights to two different staff members. The area was neither busy nor noisy on either occasion. For the price of a 'cook-it-yourself' meal I think we can expect a bit better than that." |

| "This was a nice place to stay, the accommodation wasn't too bad, and then scenic views were excellent, you can see both Ayers Rock (Uluru), and the Olgas (Kuta Tjuta), by walking up a very small hill (less than one minutes). Really nice place to stay, with a music entertainment in the evenings. The staff are friendly and you get a free shuttle service from the airports to your hotel and back again, which was really good. I would go back again." |

| "We enjoyed our stay very much, though for the price paid, considered the room rather small and crampled for three people. Finding our way to and from the rstaurant in the dark was a bit of a problem." |

| "Couldn't find reception as there was no sign. Very poorly lit when walking from the restaurant to our room at night. No bath plug and unable to obtain one to ease sore muscles after many hours walking and scrambling over rocks. Found a small scorpion in the bathroom a centipede and a spider on the day we left. " |

| "Check in was easy and seamless. The tour desk operative was efficient and courtious. The room was large and airy and clean.
There were lots of young people around this hotel with live entertainment available. All in all a very enjoyable experience." |

| "Very few facilities to choose from close to Ayers Rock. We picked the least expensive. We essentially stayed in a dorm room with twin bunk beds for a hotel rate that was equal to a 4 star in a large city.
Everything is quite expensive because of the location and lack of competition." |

| "The Outback pioneer was a great place to experience being in the northern territories. We took our 2 young daughters aged 7 and 11 years and they loved it. Our bunk room, although basic was clean and met our needs. Power shower and air con were much needed and worked well. This is an ideal place to go for a couple of nights for good value at the resort as everywhere there is very expensive. We chose to have breakfast at the indoor restaurant which was lovely and the staff were friendly and very helpful. We were worried about taking our children but relaxed once we had arrived. The bar/bbq area seemed better suited for back packers but with the great shuttle bus service it was no problem to eat elsewhere in the resort. My only critisism would be of the pool area which I think could be made a little more pleasant, as it was all a bit tired looking but for a couple of nights it was ok. There were no bedside lamps which would have made it feel a bit more cosy rather than a sterile room but I would recommend this hotel to fellow travellers in the same situation as ours." |

| "the bbq idea is grat! seems like beig in camping. Very good the entertainment when we were there (don't remember the name of the singer but she was great!)
too hot to go there in summer, but Uluru and kata Tjuta are gorgeous even with 50°C.
The only thing I disliked was the girl at the tourist information center (where the tours were booked), she wasn't very nice with us and the guest se looked after before us, and the following one..maybe it was too hot even for her!" |
