Mantra on the Esplanade Darwin 4.5 stars

Good place to use as a base for seeing the sights of Darwin, at a reasonable price.

Room was nice and spacious with a great view. The bed was a little too firm for my liking but overall good.

It's in a good location with unbelievable views

I’m a Territory local and stay at this motel most times I’m visiting Darwin. It’s centrally located in the CBD and the harbour view rooms have a decent sized balcony so you can kick back and check out the sea views. Good sized rooms.

Great location, friendly and helpful staff, great room.

Rooms were great we stayed in a 1 bedroom apartment disappointed they there was jo room service to get food a bit hard if you have kids . Please open restaurant up

Ok

My first night was quite noisy due to pubs and outsiders fighting till 2am, because I was having an operation then recovering for a week there, I spoke to the manager and he went above and beyond for me to move me in to a quieter room, he also asked how I was feeling in the days after my operation. Very compassionate man with great customer service.

Fabulous location & well appointed apartment. I was a little disappointed as an Accor member who had requested an early check-in (if possible) and best view to finally get into room at 1.55pm. Also, the room (713) which we had been allocated when we did the paperwork and dropped our bags earlier had been changed and we were now on the 4th floor. We overheard a guest being checked into room 713 whilst we waited in the lobby for our room to be ready. I realise an early check in is a privilege, but we saw several people check in ahead of us and then to be bumped to a lower room too made us feel somewhat like 'the poor cousins'. Upon entry to our room we noticed a musty smell which we put down to wet season, however later in the day we noticed a face wash had been placed on the upper frame of the sliding door to the balcony, then saw a gaping hole above it in the wall, so it had obviously been put there to soak up any water getting in, but it was black with mould and very smelly. We put it out on the balcony overnight and gave it to the housekeeping staff as we heard them passing the next day. Later that day our room key wouldn't work, so hubby went down to reception for them to reset it and being asked how everything was, he mentioned the smelly face wash in the passing, but that it was gone now. A short while later a lovey chap came to check on the problem and we explained to him where it had been and the smell etc, but that it was gone now. All good. Next morning we're wakened around 8am by the phone - housekeeping checking if the problem had been rectified?! Didn't really appreciate the timing or the lack of internal communication.

Everything was right and it was a wonderful place to stay

It was good except there was no free internet.

I was welcomed quickly, and given free parking.

Great customer service, spacious room. Downside is lack of parking availability.

Well located hotel and serviced apartments in Darwin right on the Esplanade and backing onto Mitchell St. Close to all shops and roads in town, walking distance to restaurants and cafes. Stayed in a one bedroom apartment with a city view, while the view was not anything to right home about the space of the apartment made up for this. The interior of the apartment was somewhat dated and in need of a facelift, but the rest of the hotel including the lobby, reception and pool areas were all fresh. Would definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for value and location.
