“Adequate”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 July 2010

I have recently moved to Alice through work and my first encounter with the Chiefly was in late Nov 2009 when I tried to check in late (my arrival in Alice had been delayed by car problems, the service desk was manned but I was informed through a locked glass door that it was too late for them to find me a room!) I found this incomrehensible, as I am a middle aged accountant, and I resolved to take my business elsewhere in the future.

I then went over to the Crown Plaza where the service was excellent!

I then stayed at the Chiefly last month whilst relocating the family to Alice(the wife's employer was paying the bill) while we were waiting to move into our new house.

Everything was ok and the restaurant is pretty good; however first impressions do count and I would not recommend this establishment in future based upon the lack of civility displayed in this first encounter.

“Good Location”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 July 2010

Just having arrived from the Ghan checked in early so we had some time to lay around the pool which was clean and enjoyable. The room was a basic, clean and staff were helpfull and accommodating. We only stayed one night but the location worked as we could walk into town. Make sure you go to Bojangles for dinner!

“Good location, but no "resort". Now known as Chifley.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 June 2010

I don't really see how it can be called a resort, it is a motel. It was a deal getting our luggage from the carpark to our second floor room as it was a bit of a walk with multiple fights of stairs, no lifts & no porters. The rooms were ok, nothing special, but also no complaints. The location was lovely with a nice short walk to town across the Todd River. On our return the next day the room had been serviced but the glasses etc we had used were all still where we had left then & dirty.

“Nice Hotel, very relaxed and easygoing, friendly staff”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 May 2010

The Alice Springs Resort was quite adequate, deluxe rooms were quite spacious with large bathroom with bath and seperate shower which I liked, water pressure in shower was very ordinary.
