The Bischoff Hotel is perfectly situated in Waratah, right in front of the beautiful Cascade Falls. Our room was clean and well-equipped with all the essential amenities, ensuring a comfortable stay. What truly made our experience special was the friendly and welcoming staff. We enjoyed lively conversations with both the team and fellow guests in the restaurant, swapping travel tips and stories. It felt like being part of a community rather than just another hotel stay. Thanks to its great location, warm hospitality, and cozy atmosphere, the Bischoff Hotel has become our go-to place whenever we return to explore Cradle Mountain and the surrounding area. Highly recommended!

Overall a good budget stay withing reasonable driving distance from Cradle mountain. Room and bathrooms felt clean, simple "kitchen area" (fridge, sink, kettle, microwave) Friendly staff and good "pub food". The building could do with a bit more maintenance, but still a decent place for a few nights
