Recommended hotels in Darwin:
Hotels in Darwin are very expensive and of middling quality. For this reason, while our recommendations are not the greatest hotels in the world, the value for money is the best you'll find. There are cheaper hotels closer to the airport, but they are very far from the city centre and aren't worth it. The indicated rates are peak-season rates (Australian winter), which is the time we recommend visiting Kakadu.
