The hotel was built in 1997 and the style and joinery has not changed. All is clean and tidy, very quiet, and staff friendly and helpful. Great central location. The superior room was large, but there are no extra fittings so it feels spartan, particularly with the small TV. The auto emails and sms reminders about check-out are tedious, and although we had a late 2pm check-out, the reminders kept saying 10:30am, and the room card disabled at 10:30am. A good stay though, and I would book again.

Studio room had limited cooking facilities and a tiny window so was permanently dark. It’s an ok hotel but everything in Darwin is very expensive for what you get. The area around the hotel is a little rough as it’s in the CBD. The staff are mostly very helpful.

Great Hotel fantastic location interesting set up with self check-in, which I hadn’t seen before. Sad to see them slowly, phasing out staff

The nightclub across the alley from this location played extremely loud music all night making it impossible to sleep. We were lucky to have an alternate room arranged for us at midnight on Friday, other families were not so fortunate. The assistant told us they have complained multiple times to Darwin council only to be ignored. If you book a room, be sure to insist on one away from the club. The new room were had was very quiet and made the rest of our stay pleasant.

It was quiet for where it’s located and the staff were helpful. Other places in Darwin we stayed were higher priced and in even worse conditions so I’d book this place again.
