10/10 Exceptional

Fabulous but

Very friendly staff and very comfortable hotel. Only problem was it changed its name recently and our taxi had no idea where the courtyard by Marriott was. Also currently no bar or restaurant despite still advertising it does. No breakfast on weekends either. Need to communicate this to customers with bookings as this is not a good look.

Partner and I stayed here over new year's and we had a wonderful stay. Stayed on the 8th floor and it was very quiet and in stark contrast to the hustle and bustle that was darwin CBD. Super comfy bed and walkable to most places in Darwin CBD area. Great hotel, great location and amazing staff!

6/10 Good

Bad experience

Check in around 2:30am 6/9/2024 was really slow, the only receptionist doing the check in said he was just 2 weeks in the job, took him about 15mins to check in for one guest. The line had only 4 guests including myself waiting to check in, which took him nearly one hour. While serving me, there was another guest cane to have the room card replaced, the receptionist then jumped the guest over the queue and let me wait, very rude and unprofessional. I have a silver membership from Expedia which gave me free parking when booking the room, which I showed him on the phone, but he kept refusing saying he didnt know about that, which I had to talk to his boss after that to have it resolved. Staff clearly need to have more training both in customer service and checkin skills. The hotel is good in general and the breakfast is ok too.
