Stay, Dine and Unwind at Darwin Airport Resorts

Whether you’re in Darwin for business, leisure, or just passing through, Novotel Darwin Airport Hotel, Mercure Darwin Airport Resort, and ibis Darwin Airport Hotel offer the perfect tropical oasis to begin your Northern Territory adventure.

Located just moments from Darwin International Airport, the three hotels sit side by side across lush tropical grounds, offering guests a seamless resort experience with 4-star accommodation, two poolside restaurants, two resort-style swimming pools, a fully equipped gym, and a variety of conference and event spaces.

Take a short 300-metre stroll from the terminal or enjoy our complimentary 24-hour airport shuttle, our friendly team is ready to welcome you to your home away from home.

A Resort Reimagined

Discover a new era of comfort and style with brand-new Pool Villas, Suites and Bungalows, inspired by Darwin’s tropical lifestyle. The resort’s extensive redevelopment features an open-air reception, lush landscaped gardens, and a spectacular 1-million-litre lagoon pool, one of Australia’s largest city hotel pools, complete with poolside cabanas, a children’s aquatic playground, and new poolside dining venues surrounded by swaying palms.

Near the Poolhouse, a dedicated children’s play area and a beer garden are currently under development, creating even more reasons to relax and unwind in Darwin’s tropical heart.

Poolside Dining at Its Best

Indulge in flavour and freshness across two unique poolside venues:

Poolhouse Bar & Kitchen – Serving Californian-style cuisine with a Territory twist, this vibrant new restaurant is perfect for long lunches, sunset drinks, and poolside dining.

Splash Café – A relaxed tropical hideaway for light meals, smoothies, and handcrafted cocktails beneath the palm trees.

Both restaurants feature fresh local favourites including the Top End’s famous barramundi, seasonal salads, pizzas, burgers, and chargrilled dishes, paired with tropical cocktails and mocktails crafted by our talented bartenders.

Note: Cossies Restaurant is currently closed as we prepare to unveil an exciting new Mediterranean dining experience next season.
