Alpine Lodge

Excellent restaurant. Great heater in the room and excellent shower. Huge bathroom. Very comfortable bed. Great location and view from room. The room was very clean, just a bit dated. Nice to have a fridge.

Nice weekend getaway. Staff and food were great

Beautiful setting. Comfortable room. Good food and friendly staff.

Convenient stay with good dining and breakfast options.

The in-house restaurant was great- I had one of the best fish dishes of my 5-week trip here. The room was clean and comfortable, if a bit dated.

Had a great meals at this place rooms perhaps a wee bit dated

Restaurant was good.

All great at Alpine Lodge will happily return another time

Room was too hot, no air conditioning apart from floor standing fan which we had to climb up ladder to mezzanine to bring down to lower level to give any effect. Could not open windows due to sandflies and being bitten. Would have expected heat pump based air con unit and fly netting on windows. Bed was comfortable but duvet cover was too heavy. Mezzanine would be unsafe for young children to sleep in and too hot. The in-room fridge generated a lot of heat.

Some lodge guests very noisy, especially those leaving early in the morning.

TV channels very limited.

In-room kettle lid did not open so difficult to fill with water.


Restaurant meals (breakfasts/dinners) were good. Seating in restaurant uncomfortable and a bit dated

Great food in the restaurant. Make sure you book as can be very busy. Loved the location.

Convenient location for short walk to lake.

Property was nice but got allergy from something sprayed in bedroom and had to sleep on couch next night

Great place to stay. Great place to eat!

Stayed here for 2 nights with our kids aged 8 & 10. There's not much else around in the area and the only places you can buy food/meals is basically the lodge restaurant or the shop across the road. They kindly squeezed us into the restaurant even tho we hadn't booked. We ended up going back the second night too.

On our second day we came back from our walk (highly recommend the Mt Robert circuit) and found there was a powercut cue to a power pole being knocked over, no power in the entire town. They ran a generator to keep things going at a minimum level, and the helpfulness and attitude of the staff was amazing. They gave us boiling water from the main kitchen to make cup noodles for lunch, and were generally super helpful in a difficult situation. I was even more impressed that when the power came back on just a half hour before dinner service they were able to do their full menu right away.

The rooms themselves are pretty old but functional enough, we stayed in one where there was a mezzanine level with 3 single beds, the climb up with the ladder was super awkward and the upper level was a bit stuffy, could do with a fan or skylight up there.

Great location, pleasant and warm atmosphere, large room and bathroom

Two night base on our 1000 km cycle tour adventure. We arrived during a storm to a warm welcome. Well positioned, functional, friendly staff.

St Arnaud is such a small town and my expectations weren’t high. However, the restaurant was excellent with very good food, great choices, lovely wines, fantastic service.

Good environment

Pictureesque, clean and hospitable

great place, food amazing, very isolated
