Guest Reviews
- Daryl (4/5): - Nothing Room was old and run down
- Annie (9/5): Perfect for a short stay - We didn't use the facilities much, as we arrived early to dump our bags before seeing the city, and returned late, and left before dawn to fly out. The staff we met were very friendly and accommodating. We liked having the in-unit washer and dryer, but remember to bring your own detergent! It didn't look very appealing from the street.
- Christoph (9/5): - Großes Zimmer mit guter, leiser Klimaanlage, bequemem Bett und guter Dusche. Gut abzudunkeln.
Freundlicher Check-in und Check-out
Genügend Parkplätze.
Nepalisches Restaurant zu empfehlen. WLAN ist wechselhaft (nach der Tür gut, im Bett nicht).
Frühstück nicht inklusive (ich kann das Café 21 Smith empfehlen).
- Lisa (10/5): 4 Nights in Darwin - Best location, excellent parking too. Staff are friendly and helpful, we were able to leave our luggage as we had a later flight. Clean accommodation, great and much needed airconditioning. The pool is lovely and it was a nice quiet and convenient location. Only 15mins from airport and close to everything. About the same into the city. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and was such a great price too! We were four women on a four night girl's trip. Thank you Alatai Apartments, we highly recommend though we forgot to take photos! We were surprised there were no pool towels, though we were given fresh towels every day but Sunday.
- Luke (7/5): - Location Beds and pillows
- Deirdre (7/5): -
- Dale (7/5): - The bed was comfy, the room had everything needed for a short stay Saturday night was extremely noisy.

- Adam (10/5): It was a good stay will attend again when we return to Darwin - Located close to Darwin city, walking distant, also undercover car park fully enclosed which was great Just the residents above us where a bit noisy, advised office and that was fixed
- Yishi (10/5): Comfortable stay - The location is only a 15–20 minute walk to the CBD, which made it very convenient. The room was clean and comfortable. There’s also an outdoor swimming pool, although I didn’t have time to use it during my stay. The staff were friendly, and Su was always smiling and very helpful. I really enjoyed my stay.
- Carmen (8/5): - Large room.
Very comfortable bed and pillow.
Nice to have the kitchenette and aircon!
Free parking.
Washing and drying facilities.

- Michael (8/5): Excellent - Pool restaurant Outside noise all night but out of control of business owners

- Kekeno71 (7/5): An afforable place to stay, great location and awesome pool. - Staff were very helpful. We wound up having to change rooms as the room we were initially in smelled of smoke, but the staff were amazing, and able to move us on the next night (full up the first night). They called as soon as our new room was ready and allowed us to inspect it first and make sure it was ok. The rooms are a good size and the pool is so lovely. We spent a couple afternoons and early mornings in the pool to relax or freshen up. Relatively good location between the CBD, the airport and the Gardens and Mindil, Parap Markets. Just because of the location it can be a bit noisy at night, but nothing carried on too late.
- Mohna (3/5): Wouldn’t stay here again. - Reception was helpful on arrival Front door and room was full of grasshoppers.

- Kekeno71 (7/5): Good value place to stay when doing an airport pickup. - It was fit for purpose and served our needs. Tidy, good sized rooms and nice pool. Not anything in the establishments control, but the noise/music from outside on the street was loud and annoying especially when picking up family from the airport from the redeye flight. However, when speaking with staff about the purpose of our visit they gave us extra check out time in the morning which was nice.
- Dominique (8/5): - Situation calme
Accès rapide au centre-ville à pied
- Mercy (4/5): - Staff were friendly- Just didn't like the request for bank card number as 'deposit'.
Payment option 'feels safer' even for a day. Room was quite stuffy 🤧, waterjug dirty, toilet bowl and seat not quite clean.
Bed sheets were ok but the pillows were smelly.
- Rose (3/5): If you can afford it go elsewhere - Cheap, but it is cheap for a reason Dirty, room smelled like mould, mouldy pillow. Very loud, the people in the next room sounded like they were standing next to me. Shared balcony with room next door. They were smoking and it stank out our room. Limited reception hours. Lost my card to get into the room, the person who came told me they would be 20 minutes, turned out to be over an hour.
- Stephanie (8/5): -
- Stephanie (8/5): - The apartment was great. It was extremely well located, had two bedrooms and all the necessary elements to cook, clean, etc... the pool waa great. We enjoyed our stay so much that we ended up staying 2 more nights than planned! Nothing much. The place was great to stay.
- Siddhartha (10/5): - The politeness of the reception and their service was exceptional.
Convenient and easy if you are looking a hotel nearby to city.

- Christine (10/5): -
- Kate (8/5): - Staff very helpful and friendly. Room & bed comfortable. Good value for money however id get an upgrade due to leaking aircon in original room. Screen door on Balcony didn't lock so couldn't leave door open/ shared balcony.

- Madonna (10/5): A great place to stay, a great location & value for money. - Very clean & comfortable rooms. Great facilities. The staff are so friendly & helpful. Su even remembered me from a previous stay 14 months earlier.
- Harrison (10/5): -
- Peter (9/5): Brilliant value for money in a very handy location. - Alatai Holiday Apartments is within easy walking distance to breakfast cafes and the main pub/restaurant strip of Darwin. Other destinations in central Darwin can be walked but are a quick and cheap taxi ride away if you're less keen on exercise. The accommodation was a little worn but more than adequate and the grounds and pool were great and customer service from the reception staff was exceptional. All of this meant that the value for money at this accommodation was brilliant. I would happily recommend any time. There was nothing I didn't like.
- Patrick (8/5): Clean and comfortable. Property was as described on the booking site. - Reasonable value. Clean and comfortable. The on site restaurant was absolutely terrible. Worst meal I feel I have ever had.
- Sharon (8/5): - Very thankful that the staff allocated us a ground floor apartment. Very friendly staff
- Mariah (8/5): Comfortable budget hotel with plenty of aircons but reliant on you having a car - Your standard budget hotel with the added pleasure of aircon and fans in every room and daily housekeeping. Not a walkable location, with no close public transport, so you need a car to get into the CBD.
- Margaret (8/5): - Good location, very clean. Will stay here again
- Erin (7/5): -
- Eloise (7/5): Very enjoyable stay and affordable - the pool was amazing and very spacious rooms little bit unkept, needs some paint work done
