Hotel con parcheggio a Darwin

My stay here was marred by the unnecessarily long check in process involving paperwork that could have been done electronically during the booking process - and my ongoing annoyance at being charged an additional $100 security bond at check in. All in the middle of the night, for a prepaid booking. Was assured the $100 would be refunded the next day, but 5 days later it hasn't been. Phoned the reception to enquire and was told by a rude receptionist that it was my banks problem and that they are entitled to charge this fee ”in case I damaged the room”. I haven't ever been charged more than a $1 holding fee before, so am not impressed with this ”management policy”, particularly given the room was prepaid. The actual room was clean and comfortable, a light breakfast is included which is good value. Parking is an additional charge - it would be very difficult to park here with a large 4WD, the spaces are tiny. I'm really disappointed that the management processes seem to be all about not trusting guests and making staying there a complex process...it's actually a nice hotel that is thoughtfully set up for short stay travellers, but I left with a bad feeling and feel sorry for the night reception staff who have to enforce ”policy”. Everywhere these days there are signs up about abuse not being tolerated...being combative towards paying customers isn't helpful.

We stayed here for 6 nights in an apartment. The first apartment we were in, was very nice modern, and a good size, the couch though was very low and uncomfortable to sit on, it was a click clack lounge. We also found the whole place was very dirty, the cleanliness was disgusting. There were dirty marks on the walls and cupboards, the floor was dirty, and the skirting boards have never been cleaned, the bedside tables were dirty, as was the drawers, I wiped them all down before putting our stuff in them, the bathroom cupboard had dead baby cockroaches in it, and smelt very strongly of insect spray. The bed was comfortable, but made a terrible noise when getting into it. The air conditioner in the lounge, did not work, because it was a public holiday they could not get an electrician, we were offered another room, which was a little smaller, so we said we would wait to the next day for the electrician, next day the electrician could not come, so one of the workers came and said he would clean it, after being cleaned, it still didn’t work, so we were offered another room, which we took. This apartment was bigger than the last, again it was very nice, they are modern, it’s a shame they are not cleaned and looked after. The same lounge, a click clack lounge, which is not comfy and too low. The floor next to the bed was disgusting, there was like orange juice or something orange and sticky, and also on the bedside table, so I cleaned that, but there was lots of dust balls on the floor and behind the curtains, the bathroom had mildew around the taps and sink hole, and around the toilet was not cleaned properly. there were dirty food marks around the dishwasher. The walls had dirty marks on them, and the skirting boards were also dirty. There is a laundry in the apartment, which was good. As for room service, I think we got it once the whole time we were there, and that was, replace our towels and empty the bin, the tea and coffee or the bathroom items were not replaced or refilled either. There were no blankets in the room, just a sheet on the bed, so we had to ask for a blanket. The noise in the corridors carry, Then there’s the staff at the reception desk ; there were a few different staff there each time we went, which were all not very courteous, and impolite. There is secure parking, but that comes at a cost also on top of your accommodation costs. The good thing is , the hotel is central, and walking distance to the mall, and supermarket across the road, and restaurants nearby. The downside is definitely the cleanliness , there is none. Very unhygienic.

Prezzo eccessivo per le camere disponibili. Le camere sembrano desperatamente bisogno di rinnovo. Carpette sono indossate e piazze di sostituzione scarsamente installate. Apparecchi di ruscia e quadri di porta. Una buona gamma di sapone e lozioni di qualità. La mancanza di personale e la casa completa significavano aspettare fino a circa 6:00 per la nostra stanza, ma solo un'ora di ritardo per controllare ... Le piccole camere con una vista sfavorevole, a meno che non uscite al balcone nella nostra stanza. Non tornerò, troppo opzioni migliori intorno a Darwin.

Metro Advance is my go-to hotel whenever I have a trip to Darwin (I am from Katherine). I love the location in the CBD which makes it convenient, near to shops and restaurants. Rooms are clean, I also like the kitchenette. Some rooms are also equipped with washer. Receptionist is very friendly too. They also have a secured parking area for a cheap fee. I dont have any second thoughts staying at Metro Advance. Rate is not so expensive too.

We chose Rydges because of excellent experiences, and delicious meals at other Rydges properties. Rydges Darwin had two positives, the helpful and attentive reception staff and the well designed, spacious room. Room had all the usual amenities, good sized bathroom, large desk with chairs. The blackout blind was excellent. Rooms on higher floors would have good views of Darwin. The staff looked after us very well. Otherwise our stay was disappointing. The new self check-in kiosks were not functioning properly, the helpful reception staff were clearly frustrated with the on-going malfunctions. So were we. There is no restaurant on the premises. For breakfast we were given vouchers to a “greasy spoon” down the street, which we had inspected and rejected the day before when looking for a quick lunch. The three options for breakfast, all featured fat, carbohydrate, sugar or cholesterol. “Orange” juice was a bottle of brown sludge, which we refused, and paid extra for the freshly squeezed variety. We also paid extra for wholegrain toast, which arrived drenched with butter. There was no fresh fruit, cereal, yoghurt, mushrooms or tomato. I suspect room service meals come from the same place. We will take care to enquire carefully into the standard of Rydges properties before booking at another.

Not a bad hotel for what it is, but when i stayed here we paid about $150 per night, which is reasonable for what it is, anything over 200 would be pushing it, as its only a 3.5 star hotel over all. The staff were friendly when checking in, helpful and got us checked in no issues. There is parking available on site, and also an area to pull up in your car to unload outside the front of the hotel. The rooms are ok, but feel a little dirty. The carpet seems to need a good clean, and the bathroom grout needs a scrub or re-doing! Bed was O-K but the mattress has seen better days i am sure! Aircon was good and cold, so thats key in Darwin! The breakfast included in the room is only continental, if you want hot food its an additional cost which was a surprise. Continental breakfast was not to bad though, a few options, fruit, cereal, and coffee from a machine. Although its hit and miss finding a clean mug! Coffee wasn't great tasting, so we headed out to Vault nearby for our morning coffee fix. Not a bad spot, close to everything in the city and the waterfront, walking distance, or scooters out the front you can use for a small fee. Lastly, my towels in the bathroom were clean, but my colleague said his two towels had stains over them, eww! Thanks for the stay! good aircon!

Il personale era benvenuto e amichevole. Dinushka Goonathalake ci guardava molto bene. La settimana scorsa, dopo aver soggiornato per una conferenza, siamo stati più apprezzabili di una bella stanza aperta al parco, che guardava la baia sul nostro ritorno da avventura a Arnem Land. La nostra stanza era sempre fresca e luminosa, la moderna bagno. Abbiamo apprezzato l'accesso all'aria aperta dal piccolo balcone. È stata fornita una buona varietà di tè. L'atmosfera è stata rilassata, adattandosi al sentimento tropicale di Darwin. Prepari colazione fresca sulla terrazza o all'interno e un ottimo caffè disponibile se desiderato. Aggiunge un bonus per le passeggiate di mattina e sera nel parco lungo la baia fino alla città e nei ristoranti vicini.

Non c'è parcheggio. Non è conveniente parcheggiare per conto tuo. Chiama la reception in anticipo in auto tutti i giorni In termini di igiene, non è una pelle sensibile, un po' allergica? La posizione non è male

This place is located in the heart of city! 10min walk to all eateries, pubs! Rooms are clean and spacey cafe located under motel best coffee n pies in town. Central to all your needs. Great pool area to unwind on hot days. Staff are always friendly and helpful. Carpark is a bit small but bonus it is undercover and protected. Quiet location.

Close to the bus station
