"We were disappointed at first when unable to find waterfront accommodation but so happy we didn’t. The Doubletree Hilton was so much better. We loved the green spaces along The Esplanade and the lovely seaview from our room. Although a long walk from the waterfront, close to shops and a couple of Darwin’s best restaurants. Local bus runs behind the hotel and Uber inexpensive.Best features the great pool and wonderful staff. Special compliment to Jeffrey for a great gin and tonic.😁 "
