Mt Mulligan Lodge has been named among Robb Report’s 50 Greatest Luxury Hotels on Earth in 2026, alongside our sister property, Orpheus Island Lodge.
For us, this recognition is a celebration of a place unlike any other. Set beneath the dramatic escarpment of Ngarrabullgan, Mt Mulligan Lodge offers a deeply personal way to experience the Queensland outback, where the days are shaped by adventure, stillness and the stories held in the landscape.
It is a place that invites guests to slow down and look further. From the moment the escarpment comes into view, the scale of the country creates a sense of perspective.
Mt Mulligan Lodge and Orpheus Island Lodge may be distinctly different in setting, yet both offer rare access to some of Queensland’s most extraordinary landscapes. At Orpheus, the Great Barrier Reef lies at the doorstep; at Mt Mulligan, the outback opens wide beneath the ancient presence of Ngarrabullgan.
Robb Report’s annual list is shaped by the insight of 25 luxury travel specialists, each identifying the hotels they believe set a genuine benchmark for exceptional travel. To be included is an honour, and a reflection of the care, local knowledge and warmth our team brings to every guest experience.
Most importantly, it recognises the enduring power of this country itself. Mt Mulligan is a place of wide horizons, rich history and the rare freedom to experience the outback at your own pace.
