Great location in the centre of Darwin. The room was slightly dated and had a little odour to it. Staff were very friendly and helpful

I have stayed in better hotels in 3rd world countries
Find somewhere else to stay, very old and outdated hotel rooms are appalling, nothing at all like the pictures in the brochure, there is a reason they want you to pay up front as when you arrive and see the disappointment you cant get a refund to find somewhere else to stay.

Poor Service.
Nice room, great view, good location.. but.. we stayed for 6 nights and had ZERO servicing of our room. close to $400 a night and we had the same towels, same dirty coffee cups, no refills on tea or coffee and no laundry facilities in our room as it was a studio. Poor service in a tourist driven town.
I asked at reception and was told that you only service your rooms once a week. Apparently this has been in place since Covid 2020 and has been retained since then. Covid has been over since 2022?
At the very least this should be noted on your booking platform so as to enable your customers to make an informed decision.
No Smart TV??... it's 2026.. apparently
The bar was permanently closed. No welcome drinks for Accor members either.

Dear Jason,
Thank you for taking the time to share your review.
I'm very sorry that your stay did not meet your expectations. I apologise for the hot water issues you experienced during the first two days of your stay. Unfortunately, there was an unexpected fault with the building's central hot water system, and while a plumber attended promptly, the repairs took longer than anticipated.
I'm also sorry to hear about the air conditioning and housekeeping issues. This is not the standard of service we strive to provide, and I apologise that we let you down.
Your feedback has been shared with the relevant managers so these issues can be addressed and improvements made.
Thank you again for your feedback.
Kind regards,
Terence
