They offered complimentary airport transport and they had an onsite cafe/bar which was open all day with one complimentary coffee per person. This is on top of the tea and coffee available in your room. We also had access to discounted meals either at the hotel (breakfast) or dinner at the Opal Bistro down the road. I'd highly recommend a stay at the best accommodation in Coober Pedy! ##### Janet Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard Oct 4, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Perfect underground rooms were extremely quiet and spacious. Not having a dinner service was disappointing, but John's Pizza Bar directly across the street was an awesome place to eat & drink. Wanted to swim in the pool but was disappointed with the lack of maintenance and cleaning was a let down. Also we were denied take away cans for our rooms but the locals could easily purchase and leave with beverages. Frequent visits from locals into the carpark and building was unchecked and left us feeling unsafe. ##### Richard Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tishampati Apr 25, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Excellent location and great rooms. Pool was a bit dirty on the first day. Usable on the second. Overall very good for Coober Peedy. ##### Tishampati Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nataliya Feb 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Comfortable stay We stayed in the underground room - the room was nice, quiet, clean, great shower. The internet was sketchy. Great experience overall. ##### Nataliya Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kellie-Ann Jan 8, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Loved our underground stay. The apartment was amazing, clean, neat and well-equipped with all we needed. The staff were helpful and friendly, and we received a free drink and a discount on our meal at their partner restaurant. LOVED every minute and would stay again. ##### Kellie-Ann Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Rebecca Sep 23, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Easy check in. Dinner at the sister accommodation was good ##### Rebecca Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Parklane Motel Murray Bridge](https://www.expedia.ca/Murray-Bridge-Hotels-PARKLANE-MOTEL-MURRAY-BRIDGE.h15285748.Hotel-Information) > > [Swansea - "Cottages" Studio Lodge Suites" in Sherbourne Lodge.](https://www.expedia.ca/Swansea-Hotels-Accommodation-Swansea-Motel-Suites.h34620103.Hotel-Information) > > [Ningaloo Lodge Exmouth](https://www.expedia.ca/Exmouth-Hotels-Ningaloo-Lodge-Exmouth.h3147409.Hotel-Information) > > [Rydges Pit Lane Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tailem-Bend-Hotels-Rydges-Pit-Lane-Hotel.h22683975.Hotel-Information) > > [Boulevard Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Stanthorpe-Hotels-Boulevard-Motel.h7073631.Hotel-Information) > > [Mannum Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Mannum-Hotels-Mannum-Motel.h6233237.Hotel-Information) > > [100 year old Renovated Stone Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Clare-Hotels-100-Year-Old-Renovated-Stone-Cottage.h69673902.Hotel-Information) > > [Armalong Winery Chalets](https://www.expedia.ca/Grindelwald-Hotels-Armalong-Winery-Chalets.h19286212.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozone Hotel Kangaroo Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingscote-Hotels-Aurora-Ozone-Hotel.h2737459.Hotel-Information) > > [A line Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Griffith-Hotels-A-Line-Motel.h3941352.Hotel-Information) > > [Glamping at Truffle Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Gretna-Hotels-Truffle-Lodge.h22239606.Hotel-Information) > > [Pullman Port Douglas Sea Temple Resort and Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Pullman-Port-Douglas-Sea-Temple-Resort-And-Spa.h1772601.Hotel-Information) > > [Loka Santi](https://www.expedia.ca/Agnes-Water-Hotels-Loka-Santi.h9627004.Hotel-Information) > > [Bush Village Holiday Cabins](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Bush-Village-Holiday-Cabins.h11529204.Hotel-Information) > > [Cute retro-themed beach shack - 5 mins from the sea](https://www.expedia.ca/James-Well-Hotels-Cute-Retro-Themed-Beach-Shack-5-Mins-From-The-Sea.h92899789.Hotel-Information) > > [Swan River Sanctuary](https://www.expedia.ca/Swansea-Hotels-Swan-River-Sanctuary.h103799159.Hotel-Information) > > [Griffiths Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Burra-Hotels-Griffiths-Cottage.h24157016.Hotel-Information) > > [Kangaroo Island Seaview Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Kingscote-Hotels-Kangaroo-Island-Seaview-Motel.h890230.Hotel-Information) > > [Convent at Koroit](https://www.expedia.ca/Koroit-Hotels-Convent-At-Koroit.h100863453.Hotel-Information) > > [Tieri Hotel Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Tieri-Hotels-Tieri-Hotel-Motel.h9626934.Hotel-Information) > > [Spinifex Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Derby-Hotels-Spinifex-Hotel.h7779210.Hotel-Information) > > [River Vineyard Retreat](https://www.expedia.ca/Grindelwald-Hotels-River-Vineyard-Retreat.h33329705.Hotel-Information) > > [Shearwater Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Shearwater-Hotels-Shearwater-Resort.h11114220.Hotel-Information) > > [Victoria's at Ewingsdale Byron Bay](https://www.expedia.ca/Byron-Bay-Hotels-Victorias-At-Ewingsdale-Byron-Bay.h4517022.Hotel-Information) > > [Cape Jervis Accommodation & Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Cape-Jervis-Hotels-Cape-Jervis-Accommodation-Caravan-Park.h9627435.Hotel-Information) > > [Euston Club Motel](https://www.expedia.ca/Euston-Hotels-Euston-Club-Motel.h9628644.Hotel-Information) > > [Tocumwal Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Tocumwal-Hotels-Tocumwal-Golf-Resort.h9628687.Hotel-Information) > > [The Blyth Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Blyth-Hotels-The-Blyth-Hotel.h19639111.Hotel-Information) > > [Gateway Lifestyle Birubi Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Anna-Bay-Hotels-Gateway-Lifestyle-Birubi-Beach.h3971799.Hotel-Information)
