Darwin Waterfront Luxury Suites

"First of all, I believe they should drop the word "Luxury" from the description; these suites are very well presented and well-appointed, and they are also well-positioned on the waterfront; however, they are not by any means Luxury Suites. In a Luxury suite, you do not have to squeeze between a glass partition and a benchtop to climb over the side of the bath to take a shower. A luxury suite would, at the very least, have a walk-in shower. Anyone with any kind of mobility issues would find this set-up very difficult; also, a mirror simply leaning up against a bedroom wall is not ideal, also we found the sheets and towels althoug clean they looked dull not white as the should be, In the kitchen, we found that the drinking glasses were mismatched and only one small coffee cup for two persons, outside on the balcony, requires a good update and cleaning. Sun lounges. Instead of the chairs & table,would be a better option, the BBQ and the balcony rail both had bird droppings on them, which is not a good look at any time."

Comfort Inn Darwin

"A rather well located hotel just off Mitchell Street, where all the city's clubs and restaurants are. A nice room at first glance that looked clean, however upon inspection the underside of the bed had not been vacuumed and there were objects from previous occupants (hairbrush and even a fork??)...very unhygienic. For the price I'd say it's ok..."

Argus Hotel Darwin ★★★

"Nice hotel a little away from town center but only 10 minute walk. We had a nice view from the 4th floor. Breakfast was included, a little basic but still sufficient. Pool towels were also available for free."

Club Tropical Resort Darwin ★★★★

"Well, of course, this isn't a 4-star hotel. Don't expect a good resort hotel. It's more like a 3-star resort motel. The rooms are very basic, rather old and shabby. The shared corridor balconies lack privacy. It's better to stay in buildings with a pool view, like the Gardens. It's located far from the city. We were driving, and that wasn't a big deal for us. We were choosing between the Courtyard by Marriott Darwin in the city and the Club Tropical, since they were similarly priced. We ended up staying at both. Of course, the Courtyard is much better in every way. But the Club Tropical has one undeniable advantage: its gorgeous, huge pool. It's beautiful. We stayed on a weekday and were practically alone in it. The staff is friendly. They take a $100 deposit upon check-in. They charged us cash. It's a very strange system where they ask you to pick up your key card under the doormat in front of your room. When we arrived at our assigned room with our luggage, the card was missing from the mat. We had to return to reception. The restaurant offers reasonable dinner prices. Shrimp in a creamy garlic sauce with croutons cost only $19 and were fantastic. We weren't able to try the breakfast buffet, as they don't offer it when they're not busy. A very weak continental breakfast is available for $16, or you can choose from the menu. There are also plenty of barbecue spots on site. A kilometer from the hotel is Lee Point Beach, where you can enjoy a wonderful sunset stroll and watch the sun sink into the ocean."

Vitina Studios by Argus ★★★

"A simple well equipped room. The location was a bit of a walk from the centre, probably to long at night. The swimming pool was going green, requires chlor shoc and filtration, the TV wouldn't give me any live TV but many apps shown on screen! Very frustrating. But apart from these issues the room was ideal for our needs and the early access was excellent, thank you."
