There for work though what an incredible place Uluru Kata Tjuṯa NP is to visit.
Pros:

Complex allowed easy access to excellent breakfast, Outback Bar with friendly covered outdoor dinning options and live music and good choice of beers on tap. A bit cool for pool in winter though lovely in summer. Very clean and comfortable room.

Cons:

Nothing is cheap in remote Australia - understandable.

I would definitely return to the Outback Hotel next time I visit (and I will) Ulura and Kata Tjuta,
Pros:

The Outback Hotel has two parts, the Hotel and the Lodges, therefore you get a mix of people staying which makes it interesting. The Outdoor undercover area creates a vibe and offers enough options for food, beverages, watching sporting events on the TV, playing pool or enjoying the entertainment.

Cons:

The only thing I would have liked is a more comfy pillow - bed was very comfy. Everything else was great.
