The free laundry and dryer! They used to charge coins but the hotel decided to make the laundry facility complimentary. They also provided free laundry powder. We have been travelling and driving around Tasmania and to be able to have fresh clothes Was just bliss to us. The check in and check out process was a breeze. Friendly staff. Reception, restaurant, bar staff - all approachable, helpful, welcoming. After hours on the road arriving at the hotel felt like luxury for us. It is an easy 5 minute drive to the Visitor Information Centre for Cradle Mountain. The hotel has a gallery as well for art exhibit. And yes, the food in the restaurant is pricey but that is what you pay in the mountains. There are other places to eat in the area - you just have to drive to get there. The room's heating was adequate despite the ice and snow. There is TV in the room. Soap, shampoo also provided. Facilities are clean. No issues. Enjoyed our 2 night stay.

The property is very clean and comfortable. The rooms are very spacious and have the items required for a comfortable stay. The staff are very helpful, friendly and check in / out is made very easy. The surrounding National Park is an amazing location and the facility is close to the park information centre.

This is in no way a reflection on the staff, facilities or hotel but to the very small minority of guests. If you cant talk softly, close a door quietly, walk without sounding like a herd of elephants or keep your children quiet, then can I make a suggestion: STAY HOME.

Room was lovely, especially the view. Dinner was great, although a tad pricey. Day one breakfast was excellent, plenty of food available.

You could hear the people next door, floors were very creaky, noise from the corridors and lounge area was very noisey the 2nd night, until someone told them to be quiet. The bed had been made but only the top pulled over, bottom sheet had not been touched. Day 2 breakfast was not as good as the first, no hot breakfast items, had to go up three times, no pancakes, hash browns, sausages, bacon and the scrambled egg was burnt to the bottom

Drove to Cradle Mountain on a wet and windy day, Cradle Mountain Hotel was the haven we craved for, friendly staff, comfortable room, and clear instructions on how best to see the features in the National Park and the surrounding walks. All delivered with a smile. Went up to the National Park but the weather had closed in with mist and clouds covering the mountain. Hotel welcomed us back with roaring log fires in the lounges and the opportunity to sit back and relax, nurse a drink and share experiences. Great breakfast the following morning on a clear day, and the chance to see everything we missed the day before. An overnight is not enough to enjoy all there is to offer, but the Cradle Mountain Hotel is the ideal base from where to do it, regardless of how much time you have.

- The room was phenomenal! extremely comfy bed, warm room, and luxurious bathroom with the nicest shower at any hotel we stayed at on our trip - The staff were extremely attentive, friendly and helpful - The general facilities around the hotel were lovely, a lot of lovely areas to lounge around in and relax - The breakfast Buffet was lovely

- We were a little disappointed by the dinner options. there was only fine dining which we thought was a bit overpriced and not particularly worth the price. - The Wifi sign on system was frustrating. We stayed 2 nights and it made us re sign in every morning and evening.

Easy parking and close to our room. We were upgraded into a bigger suite just by asking. Room was comfortable with a large bed. This is right on nature's doorstep and easy drive to Cradle Mountain. Lovely art gallery, nature walk, and included continental breakfast was nice. Commen areas were well maintained, and fireplaces kept the temperature comfortable.

The tea and coffee making facilities in the room are a bit old-fashioned and ordinary. Couldn't drink the coffee in the sachets and had to wait until the restaurant opened to get a decent coffee.

Breakfast had good variety and plenty to choose from and replenished when low. Room was quiet, large and beautiful outlook.

Didnt book for dinner one night and was not able to to get a table even though we went early at 6pm and was told could come back at 8pm. All a long walk that day around Dove Lake was tired and just wanted to get something and then go to room. There were plenty of empty tables at that stage but was told totally booked out. As we were staying there we thought we could at least get room service - a bowl of soup but that was not an option. Went back at 8pm after deciding not to eat to get a hot drink and there was no one in the dining room.

From the moment you entered the door you were met by the warmth of the many fires they have scattered around the hotel plus a very friendly staff member at the desk. We were given a run down on what was available along with a map showing us where best to park our car and how to get to our room. Our room was spacious and yes nice and warm, had everything required to make our stay comfortable. We had dinner in the restaurant which we both enjoyed. All staff were friendly and only too happy to assist. Make sure you take a shuttle bus out to the national park, there are many walks all mapped out all with different degrees of difficulty and time so something for everyone, you won’t regret it!!

Having to leave, would definitely return for a longer stay next time.

My stay at Cradle Mountain Hotel was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment I arrived, I felt enveloped by the serene beauty of the landscape, a world where nature and comfort exist in perfect harmony. The hotel itself is an absolute gem – every detail has been thoughtfully curated to ensure a flawless experience. The rooms are spacious, cozy, and elegant, with large windows that frame the breathtaking views outside. Waking up to the sight of the mist-laden mountains and hearing the soft rustle of trees was like waking up in a dream. A special mention goes to Megan at the reception, whose warm and genuine welcome made me feel right at home. Her attention to detail and her eagerness to assist with every need ensured my stay was seamless from start to finish. The hospitality at the Bar and the restaurant was equally exceptional – the staff were friendly, attentive, and made dining a truly memorable experience, whether it was the hearty meals or the perfectly crafted drinks. I also want to extend my appreciation to the lovely lady at the gallery inside the hotel. She had such a passion for the art and the local culture, and her warmth and knowledge made exploring the gallery an enriching and delightful experience. But it’s the surrounding beauty that truly leaves one speechless. The hotel feels like it’s been gently placed in the embrace of nature. The towering peaks of Cradle Mountain loom in the distance, majestic and awe-inspiring, while the nearby forests and clear lakes glimmer like poetry in motion. The trails that snake through this untouched wilderness are like passages into another world, where time slows and the soul finds peace in the quiet dance of the wilderness. Every aspect of my stay was perfect – from the delicious meals to the cozy fireplace that invited deep relaxation. Cradle Mountain Hotel is more than a place to stay; it’s a sanctuary for the soul, a retreat into nature’s finest masterpiece.

Everything was perfect. The only thing I didn’t like was that I couldn’t stay longer there because of my schedule.

Cradle Mountain Hotel is a warm & welcoming place to stay. Facilities were excellent with cosy woodfire lounges, delicious & varied breakfast and friendly, professional staff. From the bar & dining room, to the foyer and laundry, each amenity provided exactly what we needed for a delightful winter mountain experience. Our room was spacious and warm. The nature boardwalk and spectacular art gallery were an added bonus. Relaxing on a comfy sofa beside a fireplace with a glass of Tasmanian whisky or a mug of hot chocolate, is certainly a great way to spend an evening, after a day of walking the tracks. The impressive dinner menu provided a chance to try new dishes, which were excellent! Definitely a great choice for accommodation in this amazing part of Tasmania.
