We stayed 3 nights at the Lost Camel Hotel. Location is central to everything. All tours for the Lost Camel leave from Sails in the Desert which is a 5minutes stroll. The shopping centre is next door, very convenient. The room was tidy, the A/C was strong and the linen and bedding was fresh and clean. Having a sette/couch in the room was a bonus. There is a kettle in the room for tea/coffee. Since there is no onsite restaurant a microwave would have been good to heat up meals. The toilet bowls have a grey stain and it seems to be endemic due to the minerals/ storm water used for the flushing system. However, there is no mention of this in the toilet area so it a bit confronting. Bath area needs better cleaning and a nonslip bath mat would be good as the tiles are slippery. The use of the free laundry and detergent was a welcome addition as you do get sweaty in the desert and carrying soiled clothes back is not ideal. It’s a pity that not many aboriginal people are involved in the tourism and hotel industry in the Red Centre. This would add so much more to the experience. I hope this can be changed in the future. Overall a very good experience staying at the Lost Camel Hotel.

Little choice at Ayers Rock! And way overpriced! The accommodation is quite basic and is best described more like a holiday camp. The rooms are straight on to an alleyway thoroughfare. Light & noise travelling under doors. On first entering the rooms were well presented and adequate for a short stay. The sink is set within the room with the shower & toilet being separate. Its an odd layout with the only natural light coming from the toilet and the shower windows. You are requested to ensure you close the shower curtain when showering as everyone can see you otherwise…same applies in the loo! The showers are dated with dirty grouting & white dirty shower curtains. The toilet was stained dirty too. No excuse. Overall a major upgrade is needed or at least some brighter shower curtain. The bed was comfortable with crisp cotton sheeting aiding a good nights rest. Air-conditioning in room was good. There was no complimentary water but there is basic tea & instant coffee; if you are a coffee drinker you’ll be disappointed with their basic offerings. The rooms could easily be elevated with some aboriginal art in the rooms or at least a brighter shower curtain! Breakfast is taken at the ‘Sails in the Desert’ venue…this was very good with a good selection of quality offerings. We’d definitely recommend this. The restaurant in the town square was okay but basic. There’s also a sandwich/snack bar cafe….lots of choice in there from pies to salads to eat in or takeaway.. Be aware that there are very few places to eat after 9pm across the whole site. There’s a small pool to use at TLC; however, the aboriginal children run feral across the site and would often jump in fully clothed. These children also run in and out of the town square restaurant/toilets and corridors. It can be very noisy and it seems like management turn a blind eye to this disruption. There’s obviously social problems that need addressing as the town centre looked dreadful at night/early morn with beach towels strewn across lawned areas where they sell their art work. We took the Sounds of Silence tour and really enjoyed the experience. We also did the morning segway tour…..again way overpriced but if you do want to do it i’d suggest the full peripheral tour as the other was only a brief ride. The knee pads & hats etc were grubby but they do spray them with a disinfectant they said. Overall this was a comfortable stay to see Uluru & Kata Tjuta but way over-priced amaccommodations and tours for what you get.

Awesome hotel- super close to everything, next door to IGA and restaurants. Bed was super comfy and large pool available for swimming. Rooms large and air conditioning provided a lovely retreat from the heat. Everything you need is available! Great sandwich’s available everyday at IGA - really economical and delicious. Would highly recommend to anyone planning to come and visit Uluru

A comfy, clean room, 1 minute walk to Village, only a kettle & fridge no toaster or microwave!! Housekeeping each day. Nice pool area! Comfy beds! A little noisy so bring earplugs, if your a light sleeper! About the cheapest accommodation with ensuite facilities!

The hotel is pretty basic. Rooms are small and nothing special. No view, in fact no window. Only positive thing is it is close to the market which incidently is well stocked. The internet was intermittent. Room was clean and check-in was smooth.
