This property was very pleasent for our first time trip to Darwin. It's in a good handy location and the staff are all friendly and welcoming. The rooms are very nice, clean & comfortable with a great view. The pool was refreshing in the heat. We didn't eat at the restaurant so I can't comment on that. It was easy... More

This hotel and apartment complex is in a quiet part of Darwin and avoids the Mitchell Street chaos. Parking is expensive (15.00 a day) and the staff can err on officious at times but I will probably stay again when next in Darwin. I did wonder why, when I have stayed at Mantra hotels in Darwin before, by colleague (who... More

Darwin hotels are expensive, reflecting high demand to house highly paid Top End workers. We booked Mantra P via Wotif and got a good deal for our 5-night stay. The rooms are modern, clean and very comfortable; we liked having 2 fans and air con; also the small pool was good for cooling down (35C out in the city). The... More

Rooms were roomy enough for our family of four - the additional charge for car parking was unnecessary but all big city hotels do this so to be expected - the glass balcony rail had a large space in it which was a concern as a small child could fit through it and it was a little over priced

I found the Mantra Apartments very accommodating for my short stay I'm Darwin. The hotel was located within the main CBD area and local attractions. Special deals are available online and included free parking and late check out! The hotel is also close to the water front and the shopping/retail areas.
