The rooms were very clean, friendly helpful staff, a great choice of breakfast food. Beautiful cosy fireplaces about the premises.
We really enjoyed our stay at peppers. Do be aware that for most phone providers other than Telstra there is no cell reception and the wifi is only available in the reception.
The massage we had was fantastic, the lodge and rooms were lovely and cosy. We even saw a Pademelon outside our window in the morning!
Staff could been better all foreign staff were great others or locals felt like Working underpaid or not happy working there: room were good location but carpets were so dirty. Breakfast was just okay, however dinner at travern was really good.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The views were amazing, but the quality of the food needs improving.
Great location. Beautiful room. Let down by food quality of dinner and breakfast. In addition, they constantly ran out of bowls, cups and cutlery at breakfast. The food side of things needs some attention as the accomodation side of things is great.
Such a great way to experience Cradle Mountain. The warmth, coziness and comfort of our cabin welcomed us after a day exploring.
Mulled wine and dinner in front of the fire at the bistro memorable.
The staff in all areas welcoming, efficient and obliging.
The wallabies and waterbirds spotted over breakfast at the restaurant fabulous!
Nice room for 3 people. Fireplace area was cosy and beds were comfy.
2ply toilet paper could be upgraded.
Room service was only changing the towels and giving clean plates/cutlery. They didn't empty the bins.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Although the lodge we stayed in had all the amenities, it was starting to look a little tired. The gas fire was a very welcome feature after a cold and wet hike on the mountain. The Tavern served lovely food, the breakfast choice was good, the staff were very friendly and the surrounding area was stunning. The walks around the hotel were beautiful. An added bonus for us was seeing the local wombats at dusk
The property is in a fantastic location, only a 5 min walk to the shuttle bus that takes you up the mountain. There are also some lovely walks on the grounds with plenty of wombats, pademelons and possums to be seen. The staff are so helpful and add lovely touches like turning the heater/towel warmer on while you're out for the day and providing chopped wood for the fire. They even gave me chocolates and a card for my birthday! Property is looking a little tired but very clean and tidy. We'd go back again for sure.
Great location next to the mountains with lots of potential activities available. Room was clean, staff were friendly although the service in the restaurant for dinner was quite slow.
Room was spotless and brillant fire and bathroom. Bed was very comfortable..Staff very helpful in all areas of complex. About 5pm wombats and Wallabies roam the grounds.
