- Satinder ajit (6/5): - Location, Rooms, Common sitting Area I have been staying here from last 2 years. Last year experience was absolutely amazing . So though to book it I. Again.
This year experience was ok, I invited my cousin to stay with us this year and he booked in for his family too same day. rooms were GREAT, COMMON ROOM TO Spend FAMILY TIME WAS GREAT, VERY EASY CHECK IN AND OUT
But THIS YEAR THE LET DOWN WAS BREAKFAST.. WENT TO BREAK FAST AT 7:15 am scramble eggs were completely dry and horrible . They cooked HUGE LOT IN ONCE AND IT WAS ALL DRY BY 7:15 am . Un eatable. My wife and kids could not eat Eggs at all. Only other options available was Youghurt. And coffee
This years food experience was completely opposite to last year. It was completely shocking. Only scramble eggs and bread and SCRAMBLE EGGS WERE DRY AND GREEN.. terrible. Premises are great, Location is great .. FOOD WAS ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE

- Margaret (6/5): River lodge review - The staff were very helpful the sofa bed was not clean, the room was small but adequate
The brekkie was OK
Good value for money The room could have been a little cleaner
- ty (10/5): -
- Erin (10/5): The staff are fantastic and accommodating to request. Great bunch of people! - Comfortable and location Nothing.
- Leo (7/5): Stayed 3 nights and this is still a great option to stay in Thredbo. - Not too far from the parking (public parking) despite hotel or booking.com advertising included in the room reservation. Microwave broke down and the replacement was almost instant so the staff are great. Good continental breakfast included. I requested for 1 large bed and we got 2 single beds. The pillows were filthy as in dark brown sweat. Must be from a previous guest who were sweating asleep. The lack of room insulation is noticeable as every foot steps from upstairs can be heard(our room was downstairs). The people above us are like animals in the zoo, very noisy and running around like ferals. I hope the staff plan the placement of the couples against groups as we had 2 nights of rough sleep. Very limited cutlery in the room. Tiny coffee mugs. About 10 minute walk to the village.
- Angela (8/5): - The River Inn is a great place to stay in Thredbo.
Close to everything and comfortable.
Restaurant on site and breakfast was included.
Excellent spot to stay for mountain biking .
- Lamichhane (6/5): - The location was good, very convenient and close to the river, with beautiful old asthetic. There were a few things we didn’t enjoy. The beds were quite uncomfortable, and there was no staff at reception during check-in, we had to collect the card and check in ourselves. Breakfast was also disappointing, with very limited options like boiled eggs, hot drinks, and cereals or granolas.
- Belinda (10/5): Great location and accommodation - Very comfortable and had everything we needed including breakfast!
- Marilou (5/5): It was a fair stay . We were out all day , we only opened - The location is great , walking distance to everything in the alpine village . Needs updating . Bedsheets did not look and smell fresh .
Cutlery in the dining area were not clean , some were greasy .
- Castro Alfaro (4/5): disappointing - Breakfast was very poor. Caned fruit, bread very dry (definitely not fresh), only boiled eggs which barely can be eaten with the dry bread. Breakfast can improve a lot. The cleanliness of the rooms. We were assigned a room with mud stains on the doors and walls, and the toilet also showed signs of wear and tear. And the last, they said there are parking in the hotel but the parking is bit far, not too bad but it should be advised.
- Melinda (5/5): location is great, hotel needs some TLC and it felt very short staffed - location VERY noisy rooms, short staffed, disabled bathroom in room not required. breakfast was average, drinks were warm from bar
- Vanessa (9/5): - Great location and value for money. Staff were lovely and very helpful.
- Alex (6/5): Boiled eggs - Location The breakfast was literally boiled eggs and bread you had to cook yourself
- Sinead (10/5): -
- Kellie (8/5): Location ✅parking ✅but not great breakfast ❌ - I like the location of the hotel and the size of the rooms I though the breakfast was terrible for the price we paid
Eggs, cereal and toast at the most
After hearing about our friend hotel breakfast
- Yafit (8/5): -
- GB (10/5): - Friendly service and great atmosphere. Must better service, and good quality food and value for money drinks. Its a pretty good low key place.
- Damien (4/5): - Fans in the room would be ideal for summer periods

- Guest (8/5): - Good quiet location and good value for money compared to anything else in Thredbo, especially when all you care about is some sleep and a morning shower.
Breakfast was very basic but fills you for the day.
Bonus points for a decent ground coffee machine. Low season services are non-existent when Thredbo looks like a ghost town. We were probably the only people around staying beyond the weekend, hence breakfast area was closed. We figured that will likely be the case as we got bread, milk, musli and a toaster the night before...but without a single notice as to what we should expect the next morning.
- Diane (8/5): Nice place to stay - Breakfast was dismal
Lack of info regarding breakfast early on the saturday due to our challenge so we missed out and sunday very little to offer at 8.30 The light outside our room
- Rebecca (10/5): - Amazing staff, value for money, comfortable and great location Nothing negative to say
- Jack (10/5): -
- Jeff (5/5): Won’t bother coming back. - Good location. Indicated king bed through booking.com. Then received email from the Inn asking what bed, warning that failure to respond results in two singles. So I indicated for the second time for king bed. Arrived to a room with two singles. 4pm check in is too late and unreasonable. Paint feeling of window sills and generally poorly maintained.
- Kate (8/5): basic accommodation in a great location with a comfy bed. - basic breakfast but ok - lovely helpful staff
- Peter (8/5): -
- Jennifer (7/5): - the room and staff were good. did lack a little in that i thought the rooms would be cleaned daily. Breakfast was OK. bit short on staff and quality in this. bit more choice or variety on days would be good.
- Nicole (8/5): -
- Paul (6/5): - Location. Room and hotel need renovation. Fly screen on window was damaged and allowed many flying insects into the room.
- Michelle (5/5): -
- Peter (10/5): - Every day was great, staff friendly and helpful, they all work very well.

- Cezary (7/5): Brak bezpłatnego parkingu - Lokalizacja i cena Zbyt ubogie śniadanie, łazienka w której stała woda po kąpieli w prysznicu
- Benjamin (5/5): Location good , made more for ski season not Mtb season - Close to town breakfast included Rock hard bed , Lille room to store bikes
- Perry (7/5): -
- Hana (9/5): - Jednoduche vybaveni naprosto dostacuji, vyborna poloha, dobra snidane. Sprcha trochu narocna, kratke sklo, pak jsme museli vytrit, ale celkovy dojem to absolutne nepokazilo. Doporucujeme!!!
- Andrew (7/5): -
- Fatima Ann (4/5): it's the first time i encountered a hotel without an aircon, even a motel has aircon - the location and the staff it was too hot during our stay, only fan was provided and there's no alternative specially it was a 30 plus degrees
- Rajkumar (5/5): - Location Low staff and dirty bedsheets
- ATI HARSH (10/5): -
- Tammie (5/5): - The location and facilities The cleanliness of toilets. Limited options for breakfast.
- Bijay (8/5): Good value overall, but comfort and some facilities need improvement. - My room was peaceful and quiet. Breakfast was included, which was a great bonus.
The balcony was lovely in the morning, perfect for tea with sunlight and the sound of the river.
I really liked the table lamp with the touch switch. The bathroom had instant hot water as soon as you turned on the tap.
The room was well equipped with an oil heater, fridge, microwave, tea, coffee, and milk capsules. The key-less entry system also felt secure and convenient.
Overall, it was a more affordable stay compared to other places, and good value for money. My friends staying in another room experienced noise from children at night and couldn’t sleep until around midnight.
Parking was a bit inconvenient, as it’s not within the hotel premises. It’s a public car park, and you park at your own risk.
There was an unpleasant smell in the bathroom when we first entered the room.
The “queen bed” was actually two single beds pushed together. Sleeping in the middle was uncomfortable because you can feel the gap, so I had to sleep on one side instead.
The bin at the entrance area was always full.
- Andrew (5/5): -
- Naomi (8/5): Lovely stay if after budget accommodation - Proximity to Thredbo town centre. Quiet location No parking at property. Could hear other guests moving about in their rooms. Didn’t see staff a great deal it was pretty much fend for yourself
- Enrique (4/5): - Ubicación. Falta de personal. Muy caro para lo que ofrece.
- Sharline (8/5): -
- Angela (7/5): Great location, ok accommodation, breakfast was small - Great location - right at the foot of the mountains and close to the village Rooms could do with a better clean. Breakfast was very basic

- David (9/5): -
- David (8/5): - The staff were great, & free continental breakfast was good. Good size, comfortable room. Total lack of parking.
- Thomas Schulze (8/5): Had a great time in Thredbo! - Free breakfast, and meals at night were pretty good too. Car parking a little ways away is hit and miss - mostly full!
- Andrzej (8/5): very good - location - perfect
host - more than perfect
- Nich (8/5): Did the job! - Best location A little outdated and beds honestly not great. Too soft and springy
- Kade (8/5): -
- Wietske (7/5): Super convenient. Value for money. - Fantastic location and staff. Walls are thin, but we expected that. Noise can be an issue depending on who’s staying above or next to you but the location more than makes up for that and staff are brilliant at managing crowds and noise too Bar smells stale. Not the nicest place to eat.
- Laura (10/5): Perfect. - Great location, facilities are good. Staff, entertainment and food all better than we expected. Very accommodating as we added an extra night on and amazingly they were able to accommodate us
- Anthony (7/5): Amazing location and great facilities - only drawback was the walls are thin between rooms. - The location and facilities were excellent. Unfortunately the wall between our room and the next was very thin, and we could hear everything they were saying (even the kettle boiling and their breathing). It wouldn’t usually be a problem, except they were up quite late having a good chat which kept us up.
