Why it's worth checking out
Novotel Darwin CBD sits on the Esplanade in the heart of Darwin's CBD, overlooking the waterfront in the Northern Territory, from a well-known hotel name. With a big 733 reviews behind its 3.7 rating, it's a well-established, well-located base.
The appeal is position and comfort — a well-placed stay in a lovely spot on the Esplanade, handy to the city, the Waterfront and Darwin's attractions, making it a practical pick whether you're in town for sightseeing, work or a getaway. Its location keeps you close to everything.
Room rates, availability and hotel facilities change with the season and demand, and Darwin gets busy in the dry season. Confirm current rates and what your stay includes directly with the hotel before booking, particularly during peak periods.
