Since we weren't looking for a resort experience in the first instance, we enjoyed our two nights at South Australia's relatively remote North Blinman Hotel. We appreciated the historic fabric of the original hotel, the appropriate decor of our room and the fact that we could keep it cool by day (blinds down etc) without having to leave the air... More

Recently stayed 1 night in the pub rooms. Don't expect to much bang for your buck. My bath towel should have been thrown out a long time ago.. Dinner at the pub was just OK.. And breakfast.. I didn't like room temp milk and long life juices.. But alas the beer was cold :-) local scenery Fantastic...

Dropped into the Blinman Hotel twice for lunch, Prices were reasonable and serves generous. I can recommend the Blinman burger. They have James Squires 150 lashes on tap. Thanks to Lindsay for the quick and friendly service.

We stayed a couple of nights here - it's a friendly place with OK rooms (nothing special, but prices are reasonable for out here). The bar is a good place to be and the food is very well priced and suprisingly good. Friday nights for pizza is a hoot.

We spent two memorable nights at the Blinman Hotel. The pluses: spacious, generally well-equipped rooms; good food (though not fine dining); hospitable, friendly staff; and, most of all, the opportunity to sit in front of the fire and yarn for hours over a glass or two with the locals, as well as other visitors. The minuses: yes, the towels are... More

$155 for a double room. Threadbare towels, sheets with holes, plus the 'resident' mouse. Mouldy shower and no exhaust fan in bathroom which came with inbuilt unpleasant odour. Mud wasp nest on the curtains. Wasn't advised that a booking was required the night before for breakfast so a nice breakfast was had at the general store, thanks guys. General store... More

We finally arrived in Blinman for morning coffee & found the local pub had the best coffee ever! The town is very interesting as it used to be a thriving mining town with a population of 1500 but today there are only 22. The town began with the discovery of copper in 1859 and commencement of mining in 1862. The... More

What more could you want, a bed, food in your belly, a beer and a beautiful view. To see the Flinders is a must do and this is a great place for a night or 2 stop. The staff do a good job with the resources they have, they are hours away from towns etc and they do a fab... More

Our experience in whole in the Flinders Rangers was a great short get away and we were taken there by a travel voucher needing to be used. Due to the travel voucher we paid a great price for accommodation and the rooms we stayed in had been updated although i think we may have stayed in the largest and maybe... More

If you call painting over cracks and fittings as newly updated heritage you might be happy but when you move the cubart to look for the power point to make a cuppa and see the months of dead flys and then you see dirty tissues under the bed you start to know you have made a big mistake there where...
