Alice Springs -- Crowne Plaza or Quest?
 

If the price was the same, which of these would you stay at?

The one on the town side of the river.

Do you know which one that is? I'll look it up. Or, should I consider something else?

Seems to be the Quest. I will book that! Finally, it all comes together.

By the way, Bokhara, our final itinerary is almost identical to the one you suggested months ago. If only I had followed through then, I wouldn' be so frantic.

Hope you have a great time, Misha.

Central Australia is a good place to remember the golden rule of travel: If you're looking for experiences different from what you have at home ... expect things to BE different.

Will keep that in mind. Thanks.
