The Mercure at American River is a perfect place to start an extended exploration of Kangaroo Island, We stayed two nights and were very satisfied. The rooms, overlooking the bay, were quite well appointed and comfortable. Service was helpful and pleasant. The food was a very good standard at a reasonable price and the cooked breakfast was excellent. It's not... More

Very friendly and helpful staff and good quality evening meals - menu did not change over our stay of twelve nights, but special meals were provided . Continental breakfast was rather restrictive. As we were staying in winter we did not use the outdoor facilities, including very nice swimming pool and tennis court.

Hotel was fine but location is a long way from anything. Restaurants are generally about 40 kms away in bigger towns. The best parts of the island are a long way to go. Hotel is poorly equipped to provide information on local attractions, walking tracks etc.

A very friendly place with excellent and helpful staff. Rooms and facilities very clean. Nothing was too much trouble. The bathroom was a bit small and in our room the water pressure low - maybe as a result of being away from the mainland facilities. The hotels location was fine but it was a longish drive to some of the... More

Really quaint place to stay, rooms are dated but clean. Beautiful views. A little remote location. Restaurant was lovely, a little expensive but fine dining, couldnt use the pool as it was a little chilli but it looked inviting. Will stay here again

Recently had a room booked at the Mercure Kangaroo Island Lodge. Paid $200 online and amount was debited from my account the day before the booking which was a bad sign.... When we arrived we found the room we had booked looked nothing like it was advertised and described online. Furnishings and decorations were nowhere near the standard advertised and... More

We found the service, staff very good. The rooms are in need of major refurbishment. No bedside lights, flyscreen torn and nearly fell off when we tried to open the window and the bathroom was horrible! Because we are Accor members we had thisat a special price I did not complain on the spot. It was very disappointing accommodation. The... More

American River is a bit off the main drags across Kangaroo Island, but worth the diversion from the main road to Kingscote. The hotel has been there for a while and to some extent it shows its age. But it's kept very well - very clean and supported by enthusiastic staff. Rooms are good, especially if you have a view... More

Motel was comfortable, clean & friendly. American River was an excellent base to discover Kangaroo Island. The restaurant at the motel was excellent. there are not many other places to eat at American River. Would definitely stay here again.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Kangaroo Island, one of Australia's great wilderness destinations, is best known for its magnificent coastal views, unique landscapes, uncrowded beaches and fascinating wildlife, including kangaroos, wallabies, koalas, Australian sea-lions, New Zealand fur seals and Little penguins. Kangaroo Island is a place of natural beauty and a place to escape. The Kangaroo Island Lodge is situated on the banks of Eastern Cove in American River, with all rooms perfectly perched offering exceptional water views over the bay. Amid lush coastal vegetation, the Kangaroo Island Lodge blends in with its natural surroundings. There is no better place to unwind and to enjoy the peace and tranquility. The seclusion of this area allows for the abundance of wildlife to roam free. Tammar wallabies, brush tailed possums, black swans, Cape Barren geese, Australian pelicans and the rare and endangered glossy black cockatoos can all be found in here. The outer bay of Eastern Cove offers excellent sailing and fishing in protected waters. The Kangaroo Island oyster industry is also located in American River, with the Oyster Shed located just down the road from the Kangaroo Island Lodge. If you are a keen walker, there are two main walking tracks, the Independence Trail and the Fish Cannery walk. Both walks meander through the natural coastal scrub where numerous species of wildlife and birdlife can be seen. So why not come and escape to the Kangaroo Island Lodge? ... more   less
