This unique hotel, in a very unique town in the Australian Outback, like many of the other places in town, is built underground. The underground spaces allow protection from the fierce summer temperatures which can easily reach 120 degrees F or more. However hot it is outside, the underground rooms will stay at a constant 70 degrees year around. We found the accommodation to be simple, but adequate. As stated in other reviews, the breakfast buffet was plentiful and varied. Since the Cave Hotel really provides the only accommodation and restaurant to speak of in a "must-see" part of Australia, it certainly fits the bill for comfort and cleanliness that our family requires.
