Proximity to town and venues. Safe parking and helpful staff.

Paul Australia

I stayed in the annex accommodation behind the main building in room 12. Great value at $95 on a Saturday evening; clean, pumping air conditioner and I was fortunate not to be woken by any drunkies during the night given the central location.

Safarihiker Australia

Centrally located but quiet, clean room with all I needed, super nice and helpful staff.

Sarah Germany

Didn’t take the breakfast meal. Check-in could have been a little bit earlier than 2pm, or charge a few hours’ earlier check-in as our Arrival flight was at 3:13.

Jacky Singapore

Easy to find, well located in centre of Darwin. Car parking is extra but worth paying for (I think additional $10) as it is off street and very secure. Rooms clean and comfortable.

Meganpickering Australia

Fantastic venue a little pricey I didn't like the room as it didn't have belcony and they were very helpful in finding me one that does 😊

Chloe Australia

One of the best staff customer services provided by the team at the Hotel. Excellent service, and very friendly staff

David Australia

Immaculate. From the staff to location and facilities

Johan France

The location is really perfect. The reception is open 24 hours. The rooms are nice and clean, a great starting base for us to explore Kakadu and Litchfield. We had a TV, two access cards, parking access and the pool was great.

Ashman Australia

The hotel was in a really central location where there were lots of places to eat and easy walking distance to the harbour. Our room was not on the side of the main street and was very quiet
