Mindil Beach Casino Resort
7.4 (106 reviews)

Mindil Beach Casino Resort ★★★★★

📍 Mindil Beach, Gilruth Ave, Darwin City, The Gardens

"Pros: + The hotel itself was clean and quite nice Cons: - Location is so inconvenient, far from everywhere. They have a small shop at the hotel but don't even sell some basic stuff. Mainly just souvenirs. - Service is bad. The staff were quite rude. I asked to borrow an adapter, but they said they don't give those to guests because there was an incident when a customer didn't return it - so they just assume I would steal it too? I asked another staff, and she just dismissed me like I was a nuisance. The city were far, so I couldn't do any work, even my phone was dead throughout my stay. - Amenities were also very lacking. I couldn't find trashbins in the room (it was hidden in one of the shelves), there were no toothbrushes, no USB charger, not even side lamps. They have lights in the room that was too bright, so i just turn the TV on for a decent low light. - The cleaning staff also entered the room without knocking, and was rushing me to check out quickly. Note that it was only 9 AM and I have just returned from my breakfast.. didn't even have time for shower. Overall: Seems like the place itself isn't really designed for accommodation.. local Darwinians come here for the Casino. If that's your vibes, then this place could be decent, but if you're here just to stay and enjoy the resort to just relax, this is probably not it. Considering the price - I would recommend you stay in other hotels in the city for just half the price (or even less), and just come here for the casino or the pool.. they have a nice pool area with stunning sunset views."

The Heritage Darwin ★★★

📍 84 Mitchell St, Darwin City, Darwin

"We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The facilities were excellent, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and the location was perfect for exploring the area. The staff were friendly and made us feel very welcome throughout our stay. We truly loved every moment and had a fantastic experience. We will definitely be booking this hotel again in the future. Highly recommended!"

Coconut Grove Holiday Apartments
7.4 (78 reviews)

Coconut Grove Holiday Apartments ★★★

📍 146 Dick Ward Dr, Coconut Grove

"The hotel was budget and far cheaper than other options. The location was good being within walking distance to shopping. Room was not refreshed despite 6 days. Rubbish piled up in the corridors for several days despite requesting at reception."

Mercure Darwin Airport Resort
8.4 (122 reviews)

Mercure Darwin Airport Resort ★★★★

📍 2 Henry Wrigley Dr, Eaton

"Perfect hotel location for our needs since it is very close to the airport and the Marrara sport complex (10-15 min walk) in which our event took place. What we love most: very clean hotel room, convenient park ing spot right in front of our unit at an extra cost, great pool facility and some restaurant and coffee shop option on site. The room we booked was really spacious. We had a very pleasant stay."

Palms City Resort
8.9 (112 reviews)

Palms City Resort ★★★

📍 64 Esplanade, Darwin

"Clean room with mini kitchen. Very spacious as well. Toilet is modern and nice. Highly recommended for your Darwin stay. Number of parking lots can be increased."

Mom Darwin
7.2 (33 reviews)

Mom Darwin ★★★

📍 7/52 Mitchell St, Darwin

"The staff are great, but maybe it's just the time I arrived... it was very clique, everyone knew everyone and weren't keen on chatting. Managed to talk to a few but was an up hill fight. First time that's ever happened. Like zero conversations. Check in was a drag, took 50 minutes in a 3 person queue... and they take a picture of you on arrival so if you're barred they can send it around every hostel in the area. (Tbf don't be that guy in the first place)... but that's quite the welcome Also reason why the hostel is so low is because they don't like BYO booze... but are happy to charge backpackers $8.50 for a beer... First and last time I'll rock by this place."

Hudson Parap
9.1 (89 reviews)

Hudson Parap ★★★★

📍 49 Parap Rd, Parap

"The apartment-style room was spacious and enough for two people. The smell in the room was a bit bothersome, but there was a washing machine, a regular-sized refrigerator, and a unit-type bathtub, so we were able to stay comfortably. It's about a 5-10 minute drive from the CBD, but we had a car so it wasn't a problem, and the location was quiet and nice. There was a morning market held on Saturdays about a 3-minute walk away, and it was fun to look around. I'll definitely stay at this hotel again when I go to Darwin."

Darwin Waterfront Short Stay Apartments
9.2 (36 reviews)

Darwin Waterfront Short Stay Apartments ★★★

📍 Shop D4A/19 Kitchener Dr, Darwin

Mindil Beach Casino Resort ★★★★★
"For a hotel that appears to be a luxury casino hotel the customer service is awful. Staff are very unfriendly, unhelpful, and unsympathetic. You can use the infinity pool on weekends for free if you are not a guest, so I would recommend not staying in the hotel and just enjoying the pool and casino."

"100% recommend this place! The staff is simply amazing and kind. The guy at the reception which we assume to be the manager was so helpful and accommodating. The room was nice and we liked the new decoration ! Please do yourself a favor and come stay at this place. Also loved the private parking, helped us to sleep better knowing our car is secured."

Mom Darwin ★★★
"Excellent location and excellent price, that’s all you can expect. Hygiene is extremely bad, don’t expect a clean toilets or showers. Moreover, they play clubbing music every night til 11pm, not suitable for those who want to sleep in a tranquil place. I would definitely not rebook that place again, I would rather raise my budget slightly and find a better place."
