“Good value, good spot, noisy nights”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2011
2
people found this review helpful

I was staying at the Station in the middle of the peak winter skiing season. So as you would expect all the accommodation close to the snow fields and in Jindabyne were all booked out. The Station is only 5 minutes outside of Jindabyne so the location was still ideal considering the time of year. The rooms are clean, beds comfortable, decent bathroom. My only grip is that the walls are so thin that you can hold a conversation with the person in the next room without raising your voice. We managed to get a room next to a family that had 2 maybe 3 kids that wanted to wrestle, yell and watch TV at full volume at 7am. With that whine aside it was well worth it and we had a great time in Jindabyne.

Room Tip: Book early

“cheap clean for snow trip”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2010

people found this review helpful

We stayed at The Station last year with a group of friends during snow trip and we came back this year.

Positives:
• Cheap accommodation especially if booked with perisher card
• Rooms are spacious and can accommodate up to 6 people in a room.
• Beds are not in bunk bed set up which is a plus as we are all adults. Beds were also very comfy and we all slept well don’t know if that’s cause we were pretty tired from snowboarding all day.
• Space / area to hang place our snow gear and luggage
• Heater warmed the room especially since weather got to -10 degrees during our stay
• Rooms were serviced everyday and towels replaced
• Tea and coffee provided and replenished everyday
• Cafeteria and bar on site
• 20mins drive from snow fields and 5mins to town

Negatives:
• Finding parking in front of accommodation can be tough if you arrive late or move car.
• There are four rooms per demountable and can sometimes hear people in other rooms.
• Hot water was not hot enough
• Cafeteria food was over priced and not that great

Overall The Station is a clean, warm and cheap place to stay for a group to the snows.

“Expect to pay high price for a school camp set up.”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 24 June 2010

people found this review helpful

Very basic accommodation. No frills. Reminds me of a school camp set up. You stay in cabins with circa 1980's steel beds. Very 'cut-rate communal feel about it. OK if you are away on a lads weekend, but don't expect anything flash. I guess it's a place to crash for the night after skiing all day. Don't expect anything more. Very high cost for the 'quality' you find. Breakfast is served in a 'mess hall'.
