About Broken Hill Outback Resort

WHERE OUTBACK MEETS LUXURY

From the late 1800s onwards, for almost a century, the Mt Gipps Hotel brought together fascinating adventurers from far and wide who yarned stories of their Outback travels with one another. With a cold drink in hand and red dust on their boots, this Broken Hill hotel hosted many a visitor, from explorers to soldiers to miners and artists.

The Mount Gipps Hotel closed in 1987, remaining silent for three decades. But as of 2018, this historic venue is once again the lively home of travellers and storytellers, with the newly refurbished Broken Hill Outback Resort bringing today’s amenities to the rugged Outback so beloved for generations untold. After years of neglect, this heritage building has been restored to its former glory, and is the centrepiece of this new Broken Hill accommodation.

This Broken Hill hotel is now home to a restaurant catering for up to 300 guests, a bar and bistro, with plans in the works for a day spa and galleries showcasing local artists.

The picturesque setting overlooks the Barrier Ranges, and is located just outside of the bustle of the modern city of Broken Hill – a mere 14 kilometres away, but as if in another world. As well as self-contained deluxe cabins, our Broken Hill accommodation offers a taste of luxury to the camper with our caravan park in Broken Hill, with 80 grassed powered caravan sites and 20 grassed unpowered caravan or camping sites.

Camping guests of our Broken Hill caravan park can enjoy the brand new camp kitchen, a high-spec, disabled-friendly amenities block as well as laundry facilities – and of course, these guests are welcome to share in the luxurious amenities and deep heritage of the Mt Gipps Hotel.

On-site classes will also be available. Broken Hill is renowned for its art scene, and guests will have the opportunity to learn from talented local artists, with indigenous art classes also available. The resort will also showcase local produce and indigenous food.

The Broken Hill Outback Resort is the perfect spot to take in our wide-open skies and appreciate the vast and truly unique horizons of the Australian landscape.
