The TV wasnt working for the 2 of the 3 days i was there but the staff made every attempt to fix it, wasnt a problem at all. Every other aspect was excellent. Unfortunately they fixed it just in time to watch the last state of origin game, they cldve waited another day... 😞

Biggest issue is that every room with a balcony allows people to smoke - they supply ash trays. Thus for the majority of the time I had to close my balcony door otherwise I had the neighbours smoke coming in. I spoke to the manager and they said this was the first time they had heard of this issue. Will be looking for another hotel next time in Darwin.

Excellent apartment, everything you need! Nice pool and alfresco area. Unfortunately you do need a car if you’re going to get around Darwin itself as it’s too far out of the city centre for many of the major attractions and markets without.

The reviews were right. Excellent place to stay

We chose Palmerston area rather than Darwin itself for convenience to where we needed to be. Also it was much more reasonably priced and the reviews of Darwin city hotels were generally pretty low whereas Rydges had rave reviews.

We can see why. We have stayed in many hotels both in Oz and overseas and Rydges Palmerston was right up there with the best. Everything was spotless and each detail meticulously cared for.
It’s worth visiting for the amazing indigenous artwork on all walls alone. The pool was clear and surrounds relaxing so you could have a drink or a meal from the bar while under the shaded areas as we did.
Madame Za had exceptional food and reasonably priced. The salt and pepper croc with lime aoli was delicious and also loved the barramundi curry. Pictured.

Free secure parking was a big bonus as well as free newspapers in foyer and Fox tv. The gym was well equipped and clean.

Coles and coffee club over the road at Oasis shopping centre if you want cheaper options for breakfast

We noticed full laundry facilities available with washers and dryers though we didn’t need to use them.

The only negative is we saw no attempt to encourage guests to save water and the environment by reusing towels, recycling anything. Even though I twice put notes myself to not replace towels, it was still done each day for the 5 days we were there. A complete waste.

However We would definitely stay here next time we come to Darwin.

Fantastic hotel!! Very comfortable and clean, it’s a great spot if you’re wanting to explore the NT and not just Darwin, we did day trips to Litchfield and Adelaide River.

Great restaurant for dinner and we had lovely drinks by the pool.

We had planned to stay at a different hotel for our second weekend in Darwin after travelling to Kakadu, but we loved it so much we booked to go back here instead. Thank you!

Expensive breakfast but well worth it for good range & choice.
Technology could do with some updating; no USB points for charging in rooms [and no spares available from reception]. They don't have any scissors in reception either.
Watch the cleaning staff: they may only replace one towel each day in room for 2 pp.

Palmerston is WAY overpriced due to the gas plant, especially given it's location near nothing substantial, but there was no faulting the accommodation and the staff. Beautifully clean and friendly professional people, worth it to not have to drive the 30-40 minutes back and forth from town every day after visiting family with 4 kids asking, \"are we there yet?\" :)
