My wife and I had a two night stay at the Bischoff hotel in Waratah and thoroughly enjoyed it. The check in was nice and simple, the en-suite room we had was vey comfortable and the food on offer was delicious and reasonably priced. The hotel staff were very friendly and the boss even did our washing when the coin operated machine in the guest laundry failed to start.
We would recommend this hotel as a base for exploring Cradle Mountain. It’s about a 60km drive to the mountain but staying in this quaint little town is worth the drive.
