Novotel Darwin Airport

10/10 Excellent

"Great place"

Hilton Garden Inn Darwin

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location!"

The Leea Darwin

8/10 Good

"This was my fourth stay at The Leea in the past two years, for both work and leisure. The pools/pool area has had a fantastic makeover, with stylish new daybeds and umbrellas. But, neither pool has any shade and it seems to have attracted a much younger crowd and ‘influencers’. The rooms remain very clean, the beds are comfortable, and the staff are always pleasant and welcoming. Whilst The Leea still has plenty going for it, the overall atmosphere seems to have shifted towards a much younger demographic. As a middle-aged woman who has previously enjoyed staying here, I’m not sure it would be my first choice for my next trip."

Palms City Resort

8/10 Good

"A perfect location! Clean rooms and the gardens are stunning."

Nightcap at the Cavenagh

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for six nights, best decision! Excellent location walking distance to many attractions. Recently renovated rooms, tastefully done with excellent air conditioning. Easy access to pool that is surrounded by relaxing seating. Live music near pool added to ambience, yet my room was quiet. The food in hotel area was consistently of a high standard. The winning point though was the staff, everyone was so friendly and helpful."

voco Darwin Suites by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Everything one needed in the suite. Good breakfast choices. Perfect for a few days enjoying Darwin."

Hilton Darwin

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff, clean property, great location, everything you need is at the hotel; bar, restaurant, breakfast, room service. Minor down side; Pool could do with a revamp in some areas. Restaurant menu could be a little better. Lobby carpets do need replacing but this didn’t affect my over stay, i would be more than happy to stay here again."

Club Tropical Resort Darwin

10/10 Excellent

"Clean rooms service ladies are excellent staff are excellent and great gas BBQ areas"

Novotel Darwin CBD

10/10 Excellent

"Amazing buffet breakfast"
