Mercure Darwin Airport Resort

Located next to the airport and for this reason was quite expensive. The place is badly run down and possibly due for renovation. Pool area was the best part and the water temperature surprisingly cold. Unfortunately the water in the shower was only luke warm and the staff seemd to think we had caused the problem. Not a great welcome to Darwin for us.

Booked due to unavailability of downtown hotels (long weekend!). Surprised to find an excellent hotel...walk from air terminal, great pool, smallish but functional room. Staff numbers were short due to general Australia wide staff shortages, but management joined in as required. Cab to CBD not expensive, and plentiful due to airport proximity.

Reception staff were very nice to deal with but the facilities are dated, pool is in need of repairs, kettle in room was faulty leaking water out of electrical connection and wasn't replaced even though we called and asked for it to be replaced and also the towels were dirty on arrival.

We ravelled late and this place was convenient to the airport but the big plus was the pool the next morning. A beautiful place to swim and relax.a top glass breakfast here as well. Good service on arrival and departure.

We stayed here one night on way back from Devils Marbles as we were flying out next morning and was very close to airport. Rooms were ordinary. Very dark wood and a bit noisy as there was lots of renovations happening to a whole section of the resort. Pool area was great with lots of deck chairs and Cossies Poolside bar and bistro so you could get a drink or a feed at any time of the day. Would recommend if you are wanting somewhere close to airport.
