Highlights

Location: 97 Mitchell Street, Darwin CBD

Rooms: Deluxe King Studios, Family Rooms

Group Accommodation: Three-bedroom Apartment with Terrace

Fishing: Maritime-themed hotel for fishing trips

“There's a maritime theme that works well, especially for travellers looking to base themselves near Darwin's fishing scene. I think families will find the room layouts quite flexible. Secure parking is a real advantage, though the pool's warmth might be an issue in the full sun.”
