Reviews for DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Esplanade Darwin
Edmund Barrett-Lennard
Stayed here in December 2025. Room was nice. Had what I needed. Unfortunately there was a construction crane right out my window. This was my fault for not checking the website as it was getting a facelift while I was there. All the staff members were great and very helpful. Pool area with its bar was my favourite part. Breakfast buffet was also great and coffee was good. I’ll stay again once the renovations are done

The hotel location is within walking distance of the city centre. The sheets were clean and the bed was comfortable. The only criticism is that at check-in they didn’t inform me that booking breakfast the night before is cheaper than paying for it in the morning. I only discovered this by accident one day before my check-out.

I had such a brilliant stay at the Hilton DoubleTree Darwin. As a Diamond member, I would have loved an upgrade or a room with a view, but I understand the hotel was under construction at the time. The first night was a little disruptive, but thankfully no work happened over the weekend. From the moment I checked in, the welcome cookie was a nice touch, and breakfast was incredible—especially the juice station and being able to enjoy it poolside. The pool itself is fantastic (the best in Darwin, in my opinion!) and the gym, while small, was well-equipped. My only issue was that the gym key card was faulty—I had to get it replaced three times in a single day. The room itself was comfortable and well-kept, and overall, I loved my stay. For comparison, I also spent a night at the Hilton up the road, which was nearly double the price. Honestly, the DoubleTree was far better—friendlier service, a pool about four times the size, and a nicer location. I’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it.

Good hotel, friendly service from Erica at reception! Gifted us a room upgrade and warm cookies on arrival. Comfortable beds and although under renovation, an overall good experience. Pool is nice. Location was good to walk from to nearby stores and restaurants or down to wharf.

This hotel is beautifully located smack on the lovely esplanade. Unfortunately it is undergoing a major facade renovation (should be over soon!) But . . . when I complained about the noise the staff couldn't have been more helpful in relocating us to a quieter room. Our new room was spacious, the bed super comfy, toiletries lovely, and the buffet breakfast featured everything and anything you could want. (My one complaint is that there should be a clearer explanation at the front desk, and knowledge by all staff, of how and exactly where to catch the free local Darwin busses.) Despite that, all the staff are friendly, smiling and helpful. As we had a really late night flight we had to hang around for hours and the lovely Erika couldn't have been kinder in looking after us. Thanks to all who made our stay memorable.
