Find the Cheap Moina Hotels

We loved our cottage. We understand that a major fire destroyed the main lodge, so that has probably set the place back a bit, but the cottages are clean, tidy & cosy. The heating is great & there's everything we needed for basic cooking. Curley the Currawong bird is a bonus, as he brought berries to our door in exchange for the odd biscuit!

We stayed in the Roland Cottage which far exceeded our expectations for only $180 a night in peak season. It’s a little further away from Cradle than most of the main hotels, but in a way we liked this better as it was quiet and peaceful - there aren’t many cottages and they are set right against beautiful bushland, making you feel like you’re in the forest. The cottage has a well-appointed kitchen with all the cookware you could possibly need, plus a microwave, kettle, fridge, stove and dishwasher. Coffee, tea and sugar were also provided. Best part of all though was a huge spa bath with bubble bath provided, lovely after a long day of hiking! We only wish we could have stayed longer.

If you are looking for a remote wilderness retreat, then you found it! However, if you are only visiting for a couple of days, like us, then it’s a 45-minute drive to the Cable Mountain Visitor Centre which is where you have to leave your car, get your park passes and take the bus to Cradle Mountain Lake St. Clair National Park. (sounds a hassle, but it's very well organised) If you don’t want to do that, you could spend a day doing the fantastic walks from the resort. Rooms - spacious with a mini fridge and massage chair, which we loved. Quite dark and a bit tired and not very clean. TV was basic and Internet was slow. Again, the bathrooms are huge with spa bath overlooking the rainforest and separate shower. Lovely balcony but the dirty ashtray left on the table spoilt it. The food was very good, service very slow. One of our party doesn’t drink and they had no zero beers, only non-alcoholic white sparkling which was served warm, sigh…. There was a general apathy among the staff apart from Tracy and Akeisha, who were both brilliant and seem to run the place. Lemonthyme has such a lot of character; there is an intimacy about it but it just lacks atmosphere; maybe because it was only half full. Our 2-night stay was not great value for money @ $500 a night for dinner, bed and breakfast; this is top dollar and the lodge does not deliver that high-end level of accommodation and service that the price suggests. It was an 'ok' stay but not a 'great' stay.

This property had broken glass on our pateo and in the paddocks. Our toddler cut its finger on the broken lounge room window. It was not safe for the kids, the old gym was dangerous and like a junkyard. The basketball court was covered in slime. The horse was lame and needed some serious hoof filing, it could not even stand on one leg. The lights inside were so dim we could barely see. The sofas were covered in decades worth of grime. The dining chairs were broken and unsafe. We were not provided with a cloth for washing up, only a scourer. All the knives were completely blunt. We left our three night stay early and felt better for it. Other than this accommodation - we had a wonderful stay in Tasmania.

The room was pleasant & clean, the heater worked ok, & the bed was very comfortable. One drawback is that the door to the room was a lightweight door so anyone talking in the passage was loud enough to sound as if they were in the room. The view from the room was relaxing, but alas I didn't see any wildlife, that's nature for you. Unfortunately half the rooms were without hot water on the first morning, so it was a cold shower. The evening meal was ok, but not the greatest. Being on a tour we were lucky enough to have a cheese & wine tasting afternoon, which was fun. There are some paths through the grounds at the back. It was pleasant walk, where I did actually see some wildlife, lots of skinks. They run off pretty quickly.

Very comfortable, the heating in the room is on, and there will be wombats on the balcony at night. The grocery store at the door sells basic ingredients, and they are also sold in small quantities, which is very suitable for tourists. The key is that the prices are also very favorable. Kitchen utensils are readily available. The location of the hotel is also very close to the visitor center. It's just that when we arrived, Cradle Mountain kept raining heavily, so it was not suitable for hiking. unfortunately.

Good location. We can walk to Cradle visitor center. There was wifi at checkin area but not available in cabin. The cabin was small with full kitchenette and heater in living room. We arrived after 5 pm. The office already closed but we can take key from checkin box. Recommend to stay here if going to Cradle mountain.

The favorite experience of the entire trip to Australia! First, diagonally opposite the visitor center, you can walk to the park by foot. Each building is an independent cabin, very clean and tidy, with solid wood furniture and flooring, and modern kitchen TV DVDs. You can experience your own fire and warmth, and there is an electric heater in the room. The best thing is that there are small kangaroos that don't promote feeding, but they can be observed at close range and close to nature. It is recommended to eat more with wine and stay in the hut for a few more days. I regret not taking some potatoes and sweet potatoes. I can throw them directly in the stove. Will go again!

Location: Great location in Cradle Mountain! Near Shadian there are already several starting points for simple hiking trails! Routes ranging from twenty minutes to a few hours! Pleasant scenery! Rainfall track is recommended! We met wombat and wallaby on the route! Cleanliness: Not bad (based on the mountain location, don't expect five-star standards!)! Room: I can’t see the room type on the Trip website! There is a gap between reality and expectations! Especially the spa suite we rented... inside is just a large bathtub with 6 water holes (not a triangular spa)! Food: Breakfast recommended! Not many varieties but high quality! Tarven fast food has no surprises! Finally ⋯ I think I will book this hotel again! Apart from the above weak points, our family still likes this hotel very much, even though the price is 3,000 yuan a night!
