Petermann Hotels with Wifi

"Great place for an authentic outback experience. Well done to the team for offering very reasonable pricing on food and drinks. The common facilities were well maintained and in good condition. Our main concerns were the lack of an emergency contact number and the air conditioning in Cabins 24 and 25, which was not functioning effectively at the start of summer. Initially, we assumed this was due to daytime heat; however, the cabins never cooled properly, even later in the day. If the issue was related to the cabin location, providing pedestal or portable fans would have helped. What was confusing is that the same air-conditioning units installed across the resort appeared to work well in other areas, such as the toilets near the bar. Overall, it’s a great property, but addressing these issues would significantly improve guest comfort ."

"There's a Uluru lookout point right inside the backpacker hostel. It's a lot further than getting into the park itself, but it's perfectly fine for a day when you're not using tours or buses. The showers and toilets have a lot of bugs, which is typical for the area. I was traveling alone, so I didn't have any issues, but if I were with my parents, I'd probably opt for a higher-ranked hotel. They offer free tea and coffee, and even though it was my first time in a 20-person dorm, it was totally manageable! There were also a lot of Japanese guests."

"The room was spacious and clean. It is pricy but so are all the hotels at this resort area and there is very little choice if you want a couple of nights at Uluru. The staff at reception were lovely and helpful. I never used the pool. It is right behind the ‘town’ area with restaurants and the mini supermarket so that is convenient."

"Good location and service. Cleanness needs improving, there is a big dead cockroaches under the chair for our entire stay but not been removed. Seems like they just made the bed (didn't change them, just made them) and changed the towel, that's all. The shower design is not great, and it is almost guarantees to get wet everywhere after use. Tones of insects even in the room, especially in the evening, no door open, so I'm not sure where they came in... but I guess that's deserts. It's great to have a free laundry facility, which is very helpful. Free activities were a nice touch. Surprisingly, there are no complementary bottles of water in the room when the hotel is located in the deserts, very unusual compared to all the hotels we stayed. Nice that we are allowed to use other hotels' facilities, so in general, we did enjoy our trip, and thank you for the friendly staff."

"The Outback Hotel is a good choice for a resort with a rich history. On our first night, we opted for the self-service BBQ. There's a nearby viewing platform within the accommodation where you can comfortably watch the sunrise and sunset over Uluru from a distance."

"The airport shuttle dropped us right at the hotel entrance. We left our luggage at the front desk for our early morning flight, and it was already in our room when we returned from our sunset tour in the afternoon. In a desert resort where options are limited, this hotel is definitely among the best. The rooms are spacious, featuring two 1.5-meter beds, and the bathrooms are very clean. Ground floor rooms come with outdoor chairs, which are perfect for enjoying afternoon tea and sunbathing. Housekeeping cleans the room and replaces towels daily. If you're not overly fussy, it's a solid choice. Oh, and the sandwiches at the bar are quite good! It's about a three-minute walk to the Town Square, and a ten-minute climb will get you to the lookout point for stunning Uluru sunrises and sunsets. All sorts of tours and activities can be booked with convenient pick-up and drop-off right at the hotel entrance. This makes things incredibly easy."

"The elderly and children were very satisfied. The room was clean and tidy, the kitchen was well equipped with utensils and tableware, and it was close to the supermarket, where the prices were not expensive. We bought kangaroo meat and fried it, and used a kind of salty desert leaves as seasoning and decoration. Swimming, watching movies, visiting, and making handicrafts were all free. We got along well with the ants in front of the door and the lizards on the balcony."
