Checking in was pleasant enough. Room was both clean and comfortable. The pool would need some TLC and a shock treatment.
Airport shuttle service was very good.
Would choose to stay here the next time we're in need of an airport hotel.

Quality hotel Darwin
Useful shuttle service but quite a walk and not obvious how to get to it. Room good, quiet, clean. Isolated position so only good for brief overnight stays. No restaurant but bistro next door was good value and quality.

Convenient to the airport. Tavern/bistro and service station are walkable but not much else. Basic amenities and a bit dated but no complaints. I've stayed here before and would stay here again.

Convenient and affordable clean hotel with a great tavern for meals right next door. Beautiful clean swimming pool, friendly staff and airport shuttle service for whenever you book it for. Beds are super comfy and air conditioning is icy cold. More than happy to stay here again when flying out of Darwin in the early hours again
