I arrived here half way through a relocation from the NT to WA, with a sick wife and a van full of luggage. The staff went out of their way to help, from prompt airport and drop-off to swapping rooms around so we could stay longer while we sorted out airline tickets. It is perfectly located close to the Airport,... More

We have had nothing but superior service from all we have come across in this lovely motel. The rooms are exceptionally clean and comfortable. They have an excellent shuttle that is always there when you need it. To us, it feels like we are old friends visiting and will continue to use this hotel as the one to be at... More

From bosses to maids, everyone is friendly. We had some odd requests and all were fulfilled with a smile. Breakfasts were hot and tasty and on time, rooms very clean and well equipped with good a/c and high-speed ceiling fan, movies on the tele, well priced mini-bar (yes!), tinted glass with thick curtains for privacy, quiet away from the main...

We stayed only one night. We had a very early flight out and it was conveniently located to the airport. The free shuttle was well received. The rooms are a little small and the bathroom very small. It was clean and there is a pool that looked inviting. if all you're looking for is somewhere to sleep for the night....it... More

Have stayed at this hotel many times over the past 2 years. It is a great hotel for airport stop-overs. The airport pick up is a plus, as is free internet and the pool. The rooms are clean and comfortable and the staff are friendly and efficient. However it is no long as cheap as it previously was and I... More

This hotel runs a very convenient free shuttle to and from the airport. The rooms are fine. It was 86 degrees when we arrived and it took the a/c 2 hours to cool the not huge room down. The hotel includes a continental breakfast - but you need to order it the night before, so remember to do so when... More

My partner and I stayed at the Best Western in November, we were booked in by his employer so had no say in where we stayed for a brief visit to Darwin. The Best Western is a good 10 minute drive from Darwin City, the rooms were very comfortable, clean and nice beds, good pool area. The staff are super... More

This motel was surprisingly good. A quick phone call at the airport and they lady picks you up in the toyota tarago for a 5minutes drive to the motel. The room was smaller than Rydges hotel but bed more comfy here i felt. Bathroom slightly smaller but decent and clean enough. Our room was on 1st floor facing the swimming... More

I stayed here twice in a holiday, once where I had a 3am landing and they provided a free shuttle service from the airport which was handy for me and my very very tired 5yo. Price is reasonable and rooms are very clean and comfortable. The staff are very accommodating and lovely. The only thing I could fault the place... More
