Top Top End Hotel Reviews

Quest Palmerston

10/10 Excellent

"Great parking available at a reasonable rate. New restaurant on the premises which serves great food."

Hilton Garden Inn Darwin

10/10 Excellent

"Great choice of hotel for Darwin, great location right on the esplanade, lovely view of the ocean from the room, plenty parking and easy to park, rooms good size, comfortable with all the amenities you would want"

Nightcap at the Cavenagh

10/10 Excellent

"Clean facilities, cheap meals & friendly staff"

Palms City Resort

8/10 Good

"Walking distance to shops, restaurants and waterfront area"

Oaks Darwin Elan Hotel

8/10 Good

"fantastic views over harbour"

Ramada Suites by Wyndham Zen Quarter Darwin

10/10 Excellent

"Location perfect easy to get around Darwin The rooftop bar a beautiful place and view and the snacks provided for free were amazing The rooms were clean and the unit spacious The design of rooms a little weird in the ensuite a but crammed. Definitely stay again"

Rydges Darwin Central

8/10 Good

"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."

DoubleTree by Hilton Darwin Esplanade

8/10 Good

"Concierge was very helpful considerate and inviting from the moment we arrived, the hotel itself was very clean and the rooms delightful and would stay again the only downfall was they would not replenish the water bottles or the small milks every day (we were there for 5 days) for the kettle in our room so we could have coffee. but one word to the staff and they would rectify it straight away, ideal location close to the waterfront and main streets easy to get to places for dining"
