Pleasant oasis with a a few flaws.

TripAdvisor rating 3.0/5

GealCarn TripAdvisor review

Not your normal location for a major chain but a pleasant oasis. The rooms have a beach chalet vibe with white painted wood panelling. They are rather nice with a chaise langue in the bay window but they have no chairs or table and the mini fridge is tiny. Our ‘poolside’ room came with a decent view of the sea. Breakfast is very parsimonious. $29 gets you a coffee from a machine, fruit juice, and a single waitress-served course. The granola bowl looked best, other courses always included dry sourdough slices. The adjoining plot is being built upon, so the car park was like a mud bath, especially in the rain. Could be really nice with a few tweaks.

Nice hotel with great restaurant

The food in the restaurant was amazing! Would definitely recommend. The lodge itself is nice but especially in winter season when the pool is closed there's not much to do around which is fine because i spent most of the day on exploration tours. For a 2 day kangaroo island stay (or even longer) would definitely recommend and come again

Thank you for your kind words! We’re delighted you enjoyed the restaurant and your time on Kangaroo Island. It’s great to hear our lodge served as a comfortable base for your explorations. We’d love to welcome you back anytime, whether for a short stay or a longer adventure. Kind regards, Simon James General Manager

Glenda G TripAdvisor review

My husband and I stayed and ate at the lodge as part of the Discover Adelaide 2 day tour of Kangaroo Island. Our tour guide, Liz, organised the booking of the accommodation and our dinner on the Saturday night and breakfast on the Sunday morning. Our room was great; spacious, well set out and with good heating. Our meals in the restaurant were fantastic. Great quality and very tasty. We would be happy staying here again in the future.

Thank you for your lovely review! We’re delighted you enjoyed your spacious, comfortable room and that our restaurant meals made your stay even more enjoyable. We’re also glad Liz helped make your visit seamless. We’d be very happy to welcome you back to the lodge anytime. Kind regards, Simon James General Manager

A Wonderful Stay with Excellent Service and Food

TripAdvisor rating 5.0/5

Simon O TripAdvisor review

We had a fantastic stay at the Mercure KI Lodge. The property itself is excellent, with a perfect location that offers easy access to all the local attractions. The rooms are well-appointed and comfortable, making it a great base for exploring Kangaroo Island. The food was delicious with a variety of options, all at a great value. What really stood out to us, though, was the exceptional service. Every staff member we interacted with was incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive, making us feel right at home. Their warmth and hospitality truly set this place apart. We couldn't recommend the Mercure KI Lodge more. It's a wonderful spot to unwind, enjoy excellent food, and experience great service. We'll definitely be back for another stay in the future.

Thank you for your fantastic review! We’re thrilled you enjoyed your comfortable room, our restaurant offerings, and the convenient location for exploring Kangaroo Island. It’s especially wonderful to hear that our team’s service made your stay so memorable. We look forward to welcoming you back for another relaxing visit in the future. Kind regards, Simon James General Manager
