There's a Uluru lookout point right inside the backpacker hostel. It's a lot further than getting into the park itself, but it's perfectly fine for a day when you're not using tours or buses. The showers and toilets have a lot of bugs, which is typical for the area. I was traveling alone, so I didn't have any issues, but if I were with my parents, I'd probably opt for a higher-ranked hotel. They offer free tea and coffee, and even though it was my first time in a 20-person dorm, it was totally manageable! There were also a lot of Japanese guests.
Great location when visiting Kakadu National Park. Original architectural design. However, room and dining prices are inflated to due the remote location (tight supply and high demand of lodging options). Pool is small but does the job to help cool off.
Darwin isn't very big, so everything's pretty close by. The hotel room was quite spacious and came with a balcony, but it was so hot and humid outside that the balcony was practically useless. Having a fridge in the room was convenient. Breakfast was a simple Western style. The room decor was a bit dated but very complete. There's a connecting door between my room and the next, probably for when they combine them into a suite. The staff were very enthusiastic. However, during my stay, there was a rather violent incident. In the morning, someone was violently banging on my door and shouting. After the noise stopped, I went out to check and found a mess, with plaster peeling everywhere. Staff were repairing it, but it was all fixed by the time I finished breakfast. It seemed like they were used to it.
The best hotel in all of Australia.
The staff is very helpful and kind, ready to solve our problems.
The room was very clean, far above the standards of all other hotels in Australia. The breakfast was quite varied and averagely good.
A note of merit to this hotel for the presence of the laundry, with washing machine and dryer, very useful for travelers.
The only hotel I would return to in Australia, I recommend it.
Arrived to a sign in reception “back at 8pm” we had to wait half an hour (24 hour reception) so after a long flight this was not good. Reception area also smelt of smoke. No lift to the second floor so an issue if you have heavy luggage. Hotel was noisy at night with people in the courtyard area very late into the night. Pool looked unmaintained and dirty. Also WiFi only worked in reception.
On the plus side the hotel is in a good location and the rooms were clean and spacious and had clean bedding and towels.
The hotel offered exceptional service and the room was very comfortable and facilities were great. All the extras that were included, from a complimentary drink on arrival to the 16th floor 360 degrees viewing for sunset, free canapés and snacks. Highly recommend
Perfect for what I needed... a one night stop over to visit the Kangaroo Sanctuary!
Staff were polite and friendly. Check in and out with seamless. Had the best night's sleep in good quality and spotlessly clean bedding.
Ate dinner in the restaurant, too, which was reasonably priced.
I stayed 5 nights, I didn’t like the room in 4th floor at the start (as I requested a higher floor room and quiet room, but I got a room next to the elevator) the TV wasn’t facing the bed. I then changed to another room in 8th floor, room was great but the shower room door couldn’t be closed so the water was everywhere and it wouldn’t dry; also cleaner told me cuz it was public holiday they are not able to change my sheets.
The last night I stayed, fire alarm went off at 4am everyone went to the lobby, it was a false alarm but I got very scared.
The check in experience was not good. Room was fully paid for but had to provide credit card even though I don't have one. Desk clerk made it quite clear that any damage would need to be paid for. why, because I am Aboriginal (he did not say this but it was clear in his attitude). He also mentioned about guests.
for a company that makes a substantial amount of money from the Aboriginal community it is sad that you have prejudiced people welcoming guests.
Novotel Airport Darwin is a typical airport hotel. They run an on demand shuttle to & from the airport terminal which is very handy, and only a short distance away.
The rooms are simple, clean and functional. In room tea & coffee is provided, and there was fresh milk in the fridge.
I opted to include breakfast in my booking, which was very good. Lots of choices, including traditional cooked breakfast, lots of bread options (some gluten free), yogurt, fruit and pastries. If you're on the run they provide take away cups for hot beverages, which is a nice touch.
Overall I would happily stay here again.
Very Good
