Find the Cheap The Gardens Hotels

The location is very good, looking west to see the most beautiful sunset and sunset in Darwin, the facilities are complete, **, Italian, Chinese, swimming pool..., the front desk service is warm and thoughtful, the room is clean and tidy, facing the lagoon pool, the indoor area is big enough. The disadvantage is that the door from the room into the bathroom is too thick, every time the in and out will automatically close, trouble and close the door momentarily loud. When the checkout, I knew that the mineral water in the minibar was charged, but housekeeping and the waiter who checked the minibar entered the room and said it was free. As a result, four bottles were charged 24 Australian dollars when the checkout was done. I was too lazy to talk to the front desk about the theory. I felt that I was also seeing people. The nice guy takes the money. It is best not to include breakfast in the reservation, because there are several fixed meals (see photo) with breakfast. The drink can be selected for black coffee and English black tea. Never pay attention to the cup that drinks water. Once the cup is not cleaned at all, there are other people eating the residue. Most of the restaurant waiters are Buddhist, busy but lost, the whole wheat bread, the white bread, promised to change after no later, I can think of my own bad luck and leave, this is the best hotel in Darwin. 4-5 thousand RMB per night, but compared with the same price hotels in China, the service is still much checked, and the hotel facilities are a little old.

The hotel is a bit old, the faucet in the three-person room is a little dripping, but the others are very good, and the price is high!

First of all, it was very clean because it was renewed. Nevertheless, due to the local characteristics of Darwin, I saw insects in the room on the first day, but when I told the office, I cleaned them and put them in the room. Locationally, there was a mindil sunset market within walking distance and cbd was not too far away. Although I inquired about the check-out rate due to the flight, I was disappointed about the part that cost $30 an hour, but other than that, it was generally a satisfactory visit.

First impressions were a bit disappointing as the overall look was a bit old and tatty but that's really a little harsh as the place is very spacious and well equipped but the appliances are showing signs of age and general damage, hence the tatty feel. It felt clean overall..... although the top of the cooker hood hadn't been cleaned in a while and there was a bottle of water under the bed which wasn't ours! That's being really picky though. There was no one at reception when we arrived mid afternoon on a Sunday and we hadn't received our arrival email as it was sent while we were in flight. Consequently we had to use the emergency phone there and someone talked us through opening the key safe and all was well. The smoke alarm had been removed leaving just the base plate on the ceiling. I am guessing possibly because it's outside the bathroom and the shower steam had been setting it off. It wasn't a worry to us as the building is only 2 floors and we had steps right outside our door, but I suspect this would be in breach of rules and regulations for rentals. It was nice to have a shower that was easy to operate! It wasn't full during our stay but it was very quiet to sleep and we generally didn't hear any noise from neighbouring rooms. It's only a small property with a central pool area which again wasn't noisy. The other thing we felt on arrival was that it was too far out of town. I think being Sunday it felt quieter but in reality it's just a 5 minute walk to Woolworths and proved to be a great location. We really enjoyed our stay and were sorry to leave.

My stay here was marred by the unnecessarily long check in process involving paperwork that could have been done electronically during the booking process - and my ongoing annoyance at being charged an additional $100 security bond at check in. All in the middle of the night, for a prepaid booking. Was assured the $100 would be refunded the next day, but 5 days later it hasn't been. Phoned the reception to enquire and was told by a rude receptionist that it was my banks problem and that they are entitled to charge this fee ”in case I damaged the room”. I haven't ever been charged more than a $1 holding fee before, so am not impressed with this ”management policy”, particularly given the room was prepaid. The actual room was clean and comfortable, a light breakfast is included which is good value. Parking is an additional charge - it would be very difficult to park here with a large 4WD, the spaces are tiny. I'm really disappointed that the management processes seem to be all about not trusting guests and making staying there a complex process...it's actually a nice hotel that is thoughtfully set up for short stay travellers, but I left with a bad feeling and feel sorry for the night reception staff who have to enforce ”policy”. Everywhere these days there are signs up about abuse not being tolerated...being combative towards paying customers isn't helpful.

My last minute trip to darwin turned to be the best trip with great deal of Air ticket and Accommodation booked with Trip.com H on Mitchell Apartment Hotel is Good Location walking Distance , Room equipped with Microwave Oven, Refrigerator , Dish washer machine, Stove , Room is clean, as well as Safe to stay.

There is no problem with eating and drinking. The hotel people are kind and grateful. The view of the room is the best. The hotel is properly cleaned.

I chose this hostem becuase its the cheapest and located in the cbd. Theres no check in counter and everything is online. Its a really chilled out hostel and not like the other party hostels around. It has a pool which i havent used. The kitchen is basic but functional.

Total of 13 days (twin and family rooms) were both very satisfactory. Comfy beds, good air-conditioning, enough space for all our cases (family of 5) with each room facilities/items as described. The pool is a good size and the use of pool noodles was a bonus! There is a guest laundry (small fee) and free bba. Overall the property is clean, maintained and secure. The location was perfect for my activities and close to shops/pubs and I did utilize the on-site free parking which was very handy (recommend checking availability but they do offer cheap alternatives) ALL staff on site were friendly, knowledgeable, and very happy to help. The minor concern during my stay was handled in a friendly manner and rectified very quickly so I have no complaints. I would definitely recommend this property and stay again!

This place is now called Poinciana Inn, same location. I was arriving after 1am from the airport as many Darwin flights do. I called twice to ask how to get access to my room, didn't get a callback until some time later, the person on the phone said I'd been sent an email days earlier but I checked and I never received it, not even in my spam email, but after the 3rd phone call I sorted out how to access my room after hours. The room itself is small, there's marks on the walls, not much more than a TV and kettle and fridge in the room itself, at least the aircon worked, I don't know how they can justify $123 a night with such a low maintained place, if I'd known it was this badly kept I would've gone to a backpackers hostel instead. It's definitely overpriced for what you get. The bed was comfortable, the pool was lovely, the location is great, that's about it. The ensuite is small, there's maybe 4 powerpoints in the whole place for charging a phone and other things and 2 of those were used by the TV and kettle, and while I was recovering from arriving at 2am I got a knock on my door that same morning from someone wanting to check the maintenance my air conditioning unit. There has to be better places in Darwin CBD than this. Maybe go for Airbnb next time, finding anything under $150 a night is almost impossible unless you're 15 to 30 minutes out of the city.
