Alpine Retreat Mt Buller
Escape to Australia’s premier winter wonderland this snow season with a cosy stay at Alpine Retreat Mount Buller. Located just over a three-hour drive from Melbourne, this retro-inspired ski resort is beautifully nestled in the heart of the alpine village at the top of Mount Buller’s powder-soft slopes — only moments from the Bourke Street ski run.
Featuring a collection of well-appointed, chalet-themed rooms that can accommodate up to six guests, an onsite bar for cool aprés-ski drinks and an Italian restaurant with hearty cuisine, this quaint accommodation provides a warming retreat for a group of friends or the whole family after fun-filled days in the snow.
Located just three-hours from Melbourne, Mount Buller is the closest ski resort to any major Australian city. Alpine Retreat Mt Buller is perfectly positioned within the Mount Buller alpine village, moments from the village centre and Bourke Street ski run. The hotel is located approximately a three-hour drive from Melbourne Airport. Airport transfers are not included in your package.
During winter, vehicle access is restricted into the Mount Buller alpine village and parking at Alpine Retreat Mount Buller is unavailable. Overnight car parks are located on the road about 2km before the village from where you will need to take an oversnow taxi up to the lodges. Resort entry, car parking and the Mount Buller Valet Taxi Service can be purchased here and payable direct to a third party supplier.
