I’d been curious to visit Coober Pedy for quite some time and wanted to stay in an authentic (but comfortable!) dugout. I looked at a few different places and finally settled on a double deluxe room at the Underground Motel. It was the perfect mix of feeling like a real dugout with a small kitchen, bathroom, wi-fi, aircon, hot water etc. The owners are a friendly couple, chatty and welcoming. And very kindly collected me from the airport when I arrived and dropped me off in town ahead of the evening Greyhound bus to Port Augusta.

Nice parking lot with shade The room is just a perfect for someone who wants to try underground ”living“ The kitchen is nice and fridge has plenty of room for everyone

Very friendly host, who organised our room earlier, as we'd been on the overnight bus! Great 'cave' room, with good, clean and comfortable beds. Great shower. Use of kitchen. Laundry available. Definitely recommend!

Very nice staff. Helpful and accommodating

I always stay there when I pass through it’s clean , quiet friendly staff and great parking

Cosy, clean and comfortable. The only thing missing was a coffee maker for that morning revival,

Parking was close and convenient. The host was friendly and informative. The room was clean and well kept. Close to town and shops for convenience. Lovely view from the front.

Second time here, a great underground hotel, with great atmosphere for a variety of travellers. Owners are friendly and helpful as well

Good experience. Clean room and comfortable bed. Could do with a kettle in room without going to shared kitchen. Well kept and pleasant surrounds. Would stay again. Staff friendly.

Amazing experience to 'live' underground. Quiet, constant temperature and amenities were terrific.

Very good

just a great set up

Check in was easy and reception was very informative about the area. Amazing experience and would happily stay there again

What a unique and beautiful place, Mike was an absolute pleasure to meet with lots of information about the town. The room was really warm and quiet hot shower and good kitchen for your needs. Best part of my coober pedy experience. Thanks Mike 😁

Rooms are underground, but not as dark as other places, where it is pitch black…..big outside door is open.

We have stayed twice now. Always extremely clean and we love the guest facilities. The guest kitchen is very handy, and as a family we love the sheltered outdoor space with a cubby house and bbq. Our go to place when staying in Coober Pedy now.

This is a must for travelers stopping at Coober Pedy. It’s very unique, clean and has astounding view of the night sky in the evening. It offers parking as well for those who have cars.

We stayed in a an underground room also known as a dugout in an opal mining town.The roo had rudimentary tea and coffee making facilities. We were expected to wash our dishes etc in a plastic bowl,there was no sink except in the bathroom.The decor was old ,the linen looked dated and dirty.There was a layer of dust on the floor.There were also ants on the floor..The furniture was old and the room smelt..It just looks like it could do with a makeover..

I love the privacy of it and a small kitchen that caters for our use . It is very quiet and personal and the staff is very friendly and heloful
