Sam Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

The new pool area is very good with an excellent children's area. The food at the restaurant was great. On the flip side, I wasn't offered complementary drinks on arrival, which is meant to be a perk of being a silver member.

Dear Samuel T., Thank you for sharing your recent experience with us. We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed the new pool area and found the children's area to be excellent. Additionally, we're glad that you had a positive dining experience at our restaurant. However, we apologize for the oversight regarding the complementary drinks upon arrival, especially as a valued Silver member. Your feedback is important to us, and we will ensure that our team is reminded of the perks associated with membership status to provide a seamless experience for our guests. We appreciate your support and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for another enjoyable stay. Best regards, Desi Korina Front Office Manager Novotel and Mercure Darwin Airport

Good stay but uncomfortable bed linen, no blockout curtains

Customer review rating 3.0/5

Steve Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

Stayed in the Novotel side of the hotel. I stay here regularly and had trouble sleeping due to excessive light coming into the room. The doors have a gap which lets light in from the corridors. No blockout blinds so the curtains let light in from the hotel lights on the outside of the building. Food is excellent and service is great. Just need to make some improvements on darkness of the rooms.

Dear Stephen M., We're delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and appreciated our excellent food and service. However, we apologize for the inconvenience caused by the discomfort of the bed linen and the lack of blockout curtains in your room. Your feedback regarding the excessive light coming into the room is valuable to us, and we understand the importance of ensuring a comfortable and restful sleep environment for our guests. We will review your comments with our management team to explore ways to improve the darkness of the rooms, such as installing additional curtains or addressing gaps in doors. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and please rest assured that we will take steps to make the necessary improvements. We appreciate your continued patronage and look forward to welcoming you back for a more comfortable stay in the future. Best regards, Desi Korina Front Office Manager Novotel and Mercure Darwin Airport

All ok with the exception of the check process. Very long queue. Outside the entrance and onto the road.

In desperate need of an upgrade

Customer review rating 1.0/5

Jessica Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

Externally, the hotel looks really nice. The staff at check in were polite and friendly. The hallways and room however - Not nice at all. I was pretty shocked and disappointed by the room. It had a musty smell, old, torn carpet and tired furniture. Fortunately, the bedding, towels and bathrooms were clean. If cleanliness had been an issue, I would not have stayed. We only needed the room for overnight accommodation due to a late flight and would never stay here otherwise/again. Feel pretty ripped off for the price for the state of the room.

Dear Jessica C., We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback with us. While we're pleased to hear that you found our external appearance appealing and our check-in staff polite and friendly, we're disappointed to learn about the issues you encountered with the condition of your room. Maintaining high standards of cleanliness and comfort is of utmost importance to us, and we apologize for falling short of your expectations in this regard. Please know that your concerns will be addressed with our housekeeping and maintenance teams to ensure that necessary improvements are made to the room's condition. We understand your disappointment and frustration, especially given the price you paid for your stay. Your feedback is invaluable to us, and we will use it to make the necessary upgrades and improvements to enhance the overall guest experience. We value your patronage and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a much-improved experience in the future. Best regards, Desi Korina Front Office Manager Novotel and Mercure Darwin Airport

Inefficient check in process

Customer review rating 2.0/5

William V. Couples - Confirmed reviews ALL

No complaints about room but arriving at 1:30 in the morning from a 5 hour flight and waiting nearly an hour to get to room is unacceptable, especially when having already done an online check in pre flight.

Dear William V., We apologize for the delay you experienced during the check-in process. Your time is valuable, especially after a long flight, and we regret that we did not meet your expectations in providing a seamless and efficient check-in experience. We understand your frustration, particularly after completing the online check-in process in advance. Please rest assured that your feedback will be shared with our management team to address any issues with staffing and procedures to ensure a more efficient check-in process for our guests, even during late-night arrivals. We appreciate your understanding and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a smoother experience in the future. Best regards, Desi Korina Front Office Manager Novotel and Mercure Darwin Airport
