What a perfect place to stay in Darwin ! The staff were amazing from arrival to departure , the room had everything we needed with nice views of town and the oceanfrom the 8th floor balcony and windows. Free breakfast was basic but more than enough to get us going each morning , pool was perfect as was the spa. This place is perfect and we recommend it to anyone staying in Darwin , short 10 min walk to the CBD and 15 mins to the waterfront precinct. Thanks for an amazing stay , 10/10 for you guys! You deserve it being an amazing team that look after your guests.
