It's a simple place, but it's cool. A bit of a blast from the past, comfy bed, good shower, free WiFi. Climb to the roof and have a look at the 360 degree view. Way Cool!

We spent 4 days in Coober Pedy, staying in the suite rooms at the Underground Motel. The staff were super friendly, giving great travel advice, restaurant recommendations, and offering to call around and see what tours were available (as we came during the summer slow season). It was always nice to come back after a hot day out to a... More

We arrived at Coober Pedy Airport and the hotel staff offered transport to and from the Airport. They also provided us with transport around town and tourist hotspots. However, transport is crucial as there is no public transport around. The hotel itself was awesome, a must stay experience. Outside was 38'C and inside was cool throughout the day. We were... More

Well worth what you pay for a room here. The room was clean, the shower was good and the service was amazing. The in-room breakast was thoughtful and everything we hoped for. While there's no mobilephone signal indoors, you just have to walk outside 10 metres and you're sorted. The lack of windows was more than made up for by... More

We arrived here on a 40+ degree day and found the rooms to be a very comfortable cool temperature even without air condtioning and were able to sleep with just the ceiling fan on. The rooms are built into the side of a hill and are accessible through a central hallway, the motel had a suprisingly unique, relaxed atmosphere with... More

Even thogh the owners were away the people who were looking after the motel looked after us very well. A friendly welcome at reception, we were informed of a... More

This was a two night stay on my 8 week sojourn around Australia. THis was one of the best (and best value) places I stayed. Mercy was great - even doing my laundry when I asked about a guest laundry room. It was great to get to stay in a nice 'cave' - the name of the motel is NOT... More

The current website does not really do this accomodation justice...but obviously did enough to get us there! The location is great as it's not right on the main street, but still close enough to access facilities. The view from the hill top is great; a real selling point. The accomodation is very clean and well maintained, and the staff are... More

The underground motel is a very nice place to stay. The rooms are small but nice and very clean. Outside there are tables to sit and there is a great view. You can use the kitchen as well.
