Spacious apartment for a family of 4 with the convenience of a washing machine and dryer. Coles and chemist was nearby. Our apartment faced the backpacker accommodation so it was fairy noisy till late, better to get the beach facing apartments. The nearby restaurants are mostly bars, the waterfront which is a short drive away had a big selection of cuisines.

Great location and within easy walking distance to Darwin waterfront. Lovely water views from balcony. Carparking was easy in the basement. Staff were very friendly and helpful. One bedroom apartment was very roomy and perfect for our one week stay in Darwin. Liked that we could walk next door to the Novatel for a delicious buffet breakfast or a dinner at nighttime.

Bed was comfy. Bathroom was a bit outdated. Plenty of room.
Only complaint is bedroom window was filthy. And the tv volume didn’t work.
In general a nice comfy room with a great view from the balcony.

Pleasant enough hotel well located near the Esplanade. Has nice view of the bay from my room (though a balcony would have been nice). Hotel pool was handy way to start the day

We got fire alarmed 3 times, which was annoying, obviously a fault somewhere. The pool needs more lounges, there was only 6, so often there was nowhere to sit. Staff were lovely, & very helpful.
