Argus Hotel Darwin
My stay at this hotel was great! The room was clean and the staff at the front desk were so friendly. Shout out to the ladies in the breakfast restaurant. They were lovely and the breakfast was plentiful and delicious. The air conditioning and room dehumidifier made sure my stay was so comfortable ...

Oaks Darwin Elan Hotel
Breakfast was good. My only significant complaint about the hotel concerns its deplorable wifi service, which was so bad that I did not use it after trying it. A member of the staff offered an alternative connection that did not work either.
