Helpful staff and the room was always clean. Also close proximity to most beautiful hikes.
We really enjoyed our stay here - the beds were super comfortable and the evening food in the restaurant was great. The bathroom could do with an upgrade but otherwise would recommend this as a great place to stay in kakadu.
The convenience of the location and the restaurant for all meals.

When you stay at this hotel, remember that you are in the middle of nowhere. Considering this, the hotel is amazing! Food was very good and service and staff were amazing.
It is a very good and convenient place for exploring Kakadu, good breakfast, nice restaurants with quality meals and friendly staff…only downside is it is a bit expensive as there are not much competition!!!
Room was large and well equipped. Bathroom on the small side. We had two minor issues that were dealt with prompty by the staff. The food in the restaurant was exceptional and well priced as were the drinks.
Had a lovely stay the food was always amazing. Staff went above and beyond from a special celebratory desert to changing a booking. Thank you so much as you made this stay very special.
Out of season service was a bit slow, not many staff around.
Most things on the menu had spice in, which is not fine for everyone.
Went to get a drink at 5 to 9, and the bar was closed.
Rooms are a great size. Such a bonus to be able to spread our suitcases out on the floor.
The staff were very polite but i must admit not all of them looked very happy, it was hard to spot a smile, maybe it's because its the end of the session and done of them are a bit tired.
The pool was lovely with pool towels supplied.
We had dinner at the restaurant and the food was superb, I'd definitely recommend this.
