Discovery Parks - Katherine

10/10 Excellent

"We had one of the newer self contained appartments. It was tremendous."

Contour Hotel Katherine

10/10 Excellent

"Rooms very clean. Breakfast was a bit disappointing."

Nitmiluk Cabins

8/10 Good

"Great location allowed you to cook The location was fantastic and the accommodation had everything we needed for a really comfortable stay. We especially loved having the option to cook for ourselves, which made it feel very relaxed and convenient. The pool area was a real highlight and being located right next to it made it even better. Our balcony was also a lovely feature — the perfect place to sit in the evening with a drink, unwind after the day and watch the beautiful sunset. Overall, it was a very enjoyable stay with a great combination of location, comfort and facilities. We would definitely recommend it and would happily stay again. etc next to pool area great balcony for evening drinks and soak in sunset"

Pine Tree Motel

8/10 Good

"Okay for an overnight stay, though parking was just about adequate, especially when we came back from eating out. U shaped building, quite dated with pool in the middle of the car park area. Booked in using the codes sent previously by email, so good to have a printed copy, just in case, no reception staff. Complimentary breakfast offers hot options, self service. We went to the Big Fig Bistro about a 10minute drive out of town, definitely worth the trip. Could be noisy early morning as everyone got ready to leave."

Cicada Lodge

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent accommodation, location, staff, included breakfast was fabulous, & dinner at the restaurant was delicious! Nice pool, included cocktails & canapés in the late afternoon were lovely, the vibe of this hotel was so welcoming and friendly! I highly recommend Cicada Lodge….our favorite hotel of our trip in the National Parks of the Top End!"
