Pros:

beautiful location, easy access to all areas. wonderful welcoming and helpful staff. A large yet cosy and warm room with not just bath towels but bath sheets! I enjoyed delicious breakfasts in the restaurant where I found the service to be friendly and efficient and also dinner on what appeared to be a very busy evening and yet food was brought out without delay (My arm was however twisted into having desert) 🙄

I would definitely recommend Candlelight Lodge as a place to stay in Thredbo
