The room was extremely quiet and it was clean and comfortable. The staff were very helpful and kind. The daily cleaning was excelent. Amazing view over the city and to the ocean. The gym was great and the location was very walkable too. The only slight downside was breakfast, as more fresh fruit options would make a huge difference to make it healthier. We would 100% stay again however.

Very small balcony no view on street parking incursa fee and it is difficult to pay through the app. You have to download. Overall it’s probably one of the nicer hotels in the city area. It is very convenient to the grocery stores and restaurants and nowhere is really safe to walk around in the evening unless you’re with a group of people.

The breakfast was a light continental and with limited fresh fruit, but it was convenient and the breakfast staff were very efficient in replenishing items. The reception staff were friendly and helpful. Our suite had a kitchenette with everything necessary but without a toaster. We would stay at the Argus again if ever in Darwin.
