Nightcap at the Cavenagh

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed for six nights, best decision! Excellent location walking distance to many attractions. Recently renovated rooms, tastefully done with excellent air conditioning. Easy access to pool that is surrounded by relaxing seating. Live music near pool added to ambience, yet my room was quiet. The food in hotel area was consistently of a high standard. The winning point though was the staff, everyone was so friendly and helpful."

Hilton Darwin

10/10 Excellent

"Friendly staff, clean property, great location, everything you need is at the hotel; bar, restaurant, breakfast, room service. Minor down side; Pool could do with a revamp in some areas. Restaurant menu could be a little better. Lobby carpets do need replacing but this didn’t affect my over stay, i would be more than happy to stay here again."

Argus Apartments Darwin

10/10 Excellent

"We had a huge, clean apartment with a lovely view. Rainbow lorakeets in the trees in front of our balcony. Up the hill and a few streets back from the water front so nice and quiet. If you are a walker as we are, it's a perfect location. Only a 10 minute walk to the water and lots to offer around the complex as well. I would stay here again if in Darwin."
