Top Darwin Hotel Reviews

Oaks Darwin Elan Hotel

Oaks Darwin Elan Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I had a pleasant stay at Oaks Elan. The location is very convenient, within walking distance to many restaurants, shops, and places of interest. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. The bed was comfortable and the room was spacious, with a good-sized lounge area. The kitchen was well equipped, which made the stay even more convenient. I also enjoyed the balcony with views of the city/harbour. It was great that the balcony had a covered area with seating, so you could still sit outside and enjoy the view even when it was raining. The in-room washer and dryer were very convenient, and the toiletries provided were a nice touch. One small improvement would be to include a clothes airer or drying rack. Overall, it was a comfortable and convenient place to stay."

Mindil Beach Casino Resort

Mindil Beach Casino Resort

6/10 Okay

"The hotel is currently undergoing renovations. This hopefully will update rooms, facilities and overall presentation that at the moment it is lacking. The staff were respectful, kind and helpful, but they are dealing with not only the current disruption, but also guests reactions and issues. I would visit again once the current renovations has been completed. "

Palms City Resort

Palms City Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Can highly recommend Fast , courteous check in to a lovely garden bungalow room with a porch. The room was very well maintained and/ or recently refurbished. Kettle, toaster and electric bbq on porch seemed almost new. Comfy big bed and nice sheets.Beautiful gardens and good sized pool as well.Have last year stayed nearby in a very run down name hotel so was so glad to have picked Palm City Resort. Thank you for a lovely stay"

Darwin City Hotel

Darwin City Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff were really friendly and the room was nice and clean. But, while I stayed for three nights, I did not get my room cleaned once. Even when I asked for new towels in the morning, they were not delivered when I came back in the afternoon. They said the computer system to manage cleaning was not working, but... In addition, some extremely noisy club music was on until 2:30am every night and it was very disturbing. So, ask for a room on the quiet side (if there is any)."

Ramada Suites by Wyndham Zen Quarter Darwin

Ramada Suites by Wyndham Zen Quarter Darwin

10/10 Excellent

"Great room with large kitchen including laundry, living room and dining area, plus 2 bedrooms. Our room had a HUGE balcony off of it with dining table. So nice. The rooftop restaurant/bar was awesome! We had some drinks and enjoyed complimenting snacks and the kids loved the massage chairs. Special spot. The pool was awesome! "
