We booked here because Sails in the Desert was being refurbished and all the restaurants there were closed. We did have reservations about the cost, but hey, it's never going to get cheaper and we might not have found ourselves in Oz in May again- which is a great time to visit Uluru. The rooms overlooked the rock, and were... More

We reserved a de-luxe room with a rock view. God knows what the standard rooms were like then! It was clean but very outdated with only 1 drawer and a small wardrobe in a immitation cheap pine. The bathbroom was old fashioned and cold in April! I found the resort as a whole, although clean, was well past its sell... More

Our family stayed at the Desert Gardens Hotel in April for 2 nights. I chose this hotel purely because it was the only family hotel I could find where we would be able to see Uluru from our room. Whilst the room itself was nothing special (except for being able to see the rock) it was better than I expected... More

We stayed 2 nights hear and found the staff and the facilities very good. The food in the main restaurant was wonderful and worth the wait to get a table. Overall we really enjoyed the whole resort and were very pleased to see them employing indigenous staff. The free local activites were a bounus. Our room was spacious and clean... More

We stayed for 2 nights at the Desert Gardens Hotels. The room was nice, clean and well-serviced but could have used a little freshening up. Food was expensive but there are quite a few options at Yulara Resort. At € 235/night, I expected more, even though I appreciate that this place is at an exceptional site and in the middle... More

This hotel is fine for the few nights you need a place to stay in Ayers Rock. It's nothing fancy (for the price you would think it was) but it worked, but when we got to our room first it was dirty; cob webs, and saw few bugs on the curtains, immediately my husband told me we are not staying...

As there are not many options, this hotel is sufficient for a stay in the dessert. The hotel is near all the sights and all the tours will pick you up from the hotel lobby. The room was dated and not very clean but then again it is the dessert. There is dirt everywhere. They are renovating The Dessert Sails... More

You have to sleep somewhere and the desert gardens resort at Uluru is in the tourist trap at 'the rock'. My scores say it all. It's expensive. Pack as much as you can before you get there. Restaurants on site cater for mist budgets. The little Thai takeaway is superb for budget conscious traveler too. Unlike most people I would... More
