This hotel was designed with the environment in mind, its a definate selling point. Its close to all the shoping malls, is clean and spacious.Breakfast is extra but there's plenty of it and the hot food is freshly cooked which beats the bain marie style breakfast, Down sides are that there's no wifi or business centre - very frustrating for...

Excellent location and large, clean good value rooms if you do the 3 night minimum deal. No choice but to use valet parking if you want to be off the street which seems advisable since it's right behind the trashy monsoon bar. So budget in the valet parking. Otherwise good. More

I've just come back from Darwin and stayed initially at the Travelodge which sure had it's failings but Darwin Central couldn't be faulted EXCEPT for the car parking. I wasn't pleased about the valet situation and being told I had limited access to the car. Apart from that, the rooms can't be faulted, the staff are friendly and helpful, breakfast... More

I was on business in Darwin this month for 2 nights and we booked this hotel on wotif for $95/night. Seemed far too cheap for a hotel smack in the middle of town when all the other hotels were $150 upwards. Turns out they just wanted to get more bookings for the start of the wet season, hence the price-... More

Darwin Central Hotel is indeed in the very centre of Darwin. Our queen twin comprised two queen beds in a large and spotless room. The beds were comfortable and the room had a large flat screen tv. There is a pool, but we did not see it. Service was efficient, we were able to arrange a slightly later check out... More
