Very small balcony no view on street parking incursa fee and it is difficult to pay through the app. You have to download. Overall it’s probably one of the nicer hotels in the city area. It is very convenient to the grocery stores and restaurants and nowhere is really safe to walk around in the evening unless you’re with a group of people.

The breakfast was a light continental and with limited fresh fruit, but it was convenient and the breakfast staff were very efficient in replenishing items. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. Our suite had a kitchenette with everything necessary but without a toaster. We would stay at the Argus again if ever in Darwin.

Room was good value for the money. Clean and bed comfortable, though did have a musty smell from the humidity. Ask for a room away from the lifts if you are a light sleeper. Breakfast provided in the dining area was basic, but good. No hot

Staff and rooms were great. really clean and the staff were helpful when we asked to move rooms (due to noisy neighbor). Would have liked some sort of protein at the breakfast, though (eggs, cheese, etc.)

The hotel was very good. Complimentary breakfast basic but adequate. The pool a little small but was never crowded. The room was good size but the bathroom was too compact and the shower was dismal - slippery bath, water pressure hopeless, kept changing temperature and was way too small.

Very clean, spacious rooms. 30 mins walk to waterfront . Extremely friendly helpful staff . Breakfast included fruit & yoghurt, cereals and toast, no cooked breakfast but what was provided was adequate for us. Aircon was good and quiet which I need to sleep , the hotel was quiet even though quite a few guests. Would recommend, good value for money.

Three Days in Darwin

Good sized and clean room with decent shower. On edge of town centre so quiet, but most locations within walking distance. Staff helpful. Laundry facility available. Only criticism is breakfast. Described as light continental and that is what you get. Toast and cereal. Fortunately, more substantial options available in town!
