DoubleTree by Hilton Esplanade Darwin

My favourite place to stay in Darwin for business. Everything is very efficient and the hotel has a great pool with bar with a well times happy hour, fast and easy breakfast set up and the rooms are very quiet and cool. Also the parking set up is good albeit some work going on in that area on this visit. Given the flight regime to and from Adelaide, the later check out of 12pm at any Doubletree works great here for me. It gives me a base for the day when I fly back late and allows somewhere to do some work and calls instead of just a cafe.

The hotel is very nice, the reception very pleasant and there is also a large playground opposite the hotel. The room had everything we needed and we slept in comfortable beds. The cleaner did a fantastic job cleaning and providing with everything we needed every day. The pool was fantastic and the staff provided towels for us and were always there to help with everything. The best part was that there was always free cold water to refresh yourself when you got out of the pool, something that you don’t see everywhere. Breakfast was really good! They provided for us free parking and free wifi and that was definitely a bonus! We will definitely go back!

We loved the pool (stayed in July) it could of been warmer but the kids didn't mind. The buffet breakfast was great, only quibble was not enough fresh fruit such as watermelon, bananas etc The location was great, right across from the park and ocean. I visited the gym which I found was very clean and well equipped.

I liked my room and the place looks nice and staff were lovely and welcoming as well

Location was perfect, cocktail specials were a winner, breakfast was generous and plenty of variety. Rooms clean and generous sized plus the bathrooms were modern and clean.
