Overall Ratings & Reviews Prairie Hotel

Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.

We booked looking for solitude and quiet.. 10/10 ! If you can't live without the net or your phone, it will take some adjusting (it’s very worth it), short drive to get back online if you need. Kelly was a good communicator and easy to deal with.

A real oasis with great rooms, friendly staff and good food. A great stopover or base for exploring the Flinders. Unique

The hotel has lost some of its charm after renovations although some may be impressed by the new bar. The stay was spoiled by the loud people in the next room with offensive language. The menu retains its interesting feral options but the remainder would be better if it concentrated on basic Australian staples. Breakfast was very limited in choices.

Hippest hotel in the middle of nowhere ever!!! super cool property, decorated with wonderful indigenous art, great restaurant and very convivial and helpful atmosphere.

The welcoming and friendly staff made our stay memorable. Great coffee and exception breakfast.

Outback oasis. Tremendous staff. Food was great.

Great range of accommodation options, luxury to camping. Great service and meals

The remoteness is appealing. The staff outstanding

Loved everything about the Prarie Hotel, especially the friendliness of the staff!

Wonderful staff made this stay memorable, plus the ambience and magnificent Flinders Ranges! We also lucked some live performances by John (Johno) O’Dae, roll on ‘Parachilna sunset’!

The friendly warm staff and unique surrounds all made it a great stay

Very friendly staff, large and clean room with pleasant lounge areas. Wonderful restaurant with a great variety of choices that changed each night.

Great property, good food and most pleasant staff.

Other than the food in the hotel restaurant which was good, the room in the hotel was in the 1950's style. Many cracks on the walls, a few spiders on the high ceiling of the room, no refrigerator and the air conditionned was not powerfull enough to cool down the room temperature (it was 36 C outside) even though it was at 18 C with the fan at maximum. I did not sleep well, the room was too warm. Although the hotel is the only establishment in this town, I do not recommend this hotel.

Not much more can be expected from a place this far out in the Outback. We were very pleasantly surprised and completely satisfied with our stay. From what we saw of other places an hour or so down the road either way, we made a great choice. I'd recommend this to anyone.

Great find in the outback and good base for exploring the Northern Flinders. Website booking for guest numbers didn’t equate with accomodation bedding for some unexplained reason. Lucky we didn’t need the beds in the end.

Very pleasant evening watching the sunset and excellent dining.

It is a unique place. Famous for "feral food" - they serve a mixed grill of emu. kangaroo and camel - they also had a goat curry. Whiting and beef cheeks also available. Front bar serves as entry and meeting place. The heritage rooms are truly old ?18ft ceilings, sculptured wood chandelier and 3 wooden doves (remember the flying ducks?) on the wall. Well maintained. The bathroom maybe a touch too nostalgic - good loo, hot water but shower over the bath. Lovely sitting room. Well worth the effort. No grass - spinifex - quite desert like. Wonderful view of the Flinders Rangers - for many miles on the way.

Restaurant was excellent, great food, best steak I’ve had for a long time
