I stayed at Alkira Darwin for the first time recently. My three-night stay was a wonderful experience and I enjoyed every facet of it. Alkira, in its present form, has been operating for only 12 months. The property has been completely refurbished and the rooms are beautifully appointed with quality furnishings, fixtures & fittings. The gardens and grounds are truly... more

Worst place I have ever stayed, and so expensive. We paid $195 for a "twin room" which consisted of 2 beds a few inches apart, a small surface for making tea (the kettle etc were in the only drawers). The bathroom was so small that the door hung sideways and clattered whenever you went in. The manager was rude right... more

We booked a "two bedroom, two bathroom apartment". What we actually got was two small interconnecting motel rooms, which were serviced every fourth day.

That was when the trouble started. The whole office and reception was in darkness.There... more

I have to agree with the previous poster. I booked this through my company for a business trip and was staying for 10 nights, which is 9 nights too long. Reception are friendly when you call and I was told I was being upgraded to an executive apartment for free which made me look forward to my stay. I didn't... more
