    comfortable room
    refreshing pool
    light continental breakfast

    Would definitely recommend for an overnight stopping

    Comfortable room, refreshing pool, with amazing air conditioning that made returning from the heat of the day so much more enjoyable after harvesting the rich offerings of a light continental breakfast featuring fresh fruit and various breads.

    Cannot find any fault.

    spacious rooms
    friendly staff
    lack of kids' area

    The hotel had a very welcoming atmosphere for our family, with spacious rooms that comfortably accommodated us. The breakfast starting at 5:30 am was a lifesaver for our early plans, and the staff were friendly and attentive throughout our stay.

    My kids wished there was a playground or kids' area to play safely outside.

    limited dining options

    I appreciated the warm and welcoming atmosphere at Argus Hotel Darwin. The interiors were clean and modern, making it easy for me to navigate the space comfortably. The staff were incredibly attentive and helpful throughout my stay.

    A larger pool would enhance the experience.

    awkward layout
    uninviting pool

    The pool setting needs a facelift!!! The bathroom design is awkward with an open layout, making it challenging to keep the floor dry. Room cards reset too often, causing unnecessary frustration!!!

    comfortable bed
    small pool

    The king-size bed was incredibly comfortable and offered a great night's sleep.

    The small pool was disappointing as it was more like a kiddie pool than a relaxing spot.

    perfect base for exploring landmarks and parks

    my room was clean and comfortable with a lovely balcony overlooking the park, and the easy walking distance to the beautiful george brown darwin botanic gardens made my weekend getaway truly enjoyable.

    comfy bed
    great location
    attentive staff
    poor breakfast
    noise disturbance
    small gym

    I enjoyed the spacious room with a nice view and comfortable bed. The staff were friendly and attentive, making my stay pleasant. The cleanliness was top-notch. I appreciated the location being close to various attractions. Breakfast felt lacking. it consisted mainly of toast and a few cereals, which didn't meet my expectations for a hotel. Also, the gym had limited equipment. A larger pool would really enhance the overall experience. The noise from other rooms was noticeable at times, which affected my comfort.

    safety issue

    Safety concerns overshadowed stay

    Had a rough experience with safety when a guy from the next room opened multiple doors at night. Luckily my friend caught it in time. It's unnerving to think what could've happened. On the plus side, the place had solid amenities, like special diet menus, but that incident really put a damper on things.

    clean rooms
    pleasant staff
    minimal breakfast options
    inconsistent housekeeping

    The location offers a peaceful atmosphere, with clean rooms and pleasant staff. Breakfast options were quite minimal, and housekeeping left a bit to be desired with attention to detail. A nice stay overall, though it could use improvements in some areas.
