It's claimed that it has the best hotel pool in Darwin. I agree with that. The pool area needs more shade though in hot weather. Nice modern rooms. A very clean hotel with very good staff and plenty of them. Food nice but the menu is a bit limited in choices but the breakfast bar is as good as any, I think. The hotel is presently being refurbished in a major way which is definitely a big visual negative but it is not overly obtrusive and the staff do acknowledge its impact on guests. They did make a mistake regarding credit card bond and call us in our room at 10:20pm to ask us to come down to sort it out. What were they thinking, of course we did not go down. My reduced score is due largely to that incident and to a lesser degree the renovations.
