We had no other option but to stay one night at the Mecure as our original flight was cancelled. The complex is in great need of renovation. Beds had threads hanging off - linen was nice. Expect peeling paint, chipped tiles, horrible pork belly salad (just don't do it!) and no where to plug in your kettle. On the other hand, and the reason I didnt give one star, the staff were lovely and very helpful and the pools are too. But at $400 a night, I want and expect more.

The Hotel is very close to the Darwin Airport, you can easily walk to the Departure Terminal. I stayed in BLOCK 3 both visits and although the surrounding area was neatly kept with gardens and lawns, the accommodation itself was not up to the standard of a Mercure Hotel. The walls were painted in a depressing yellow which appeared to be either dirty or stained. The passageway between the rooms was concrete and so were the steps to the top floor. This lack of floor covering was like being back in the Army Barracks of my youth. It made the accommodation very noisy. The bathroom floor had a sticky feeling about it from the cleaning product used on it. If I had to stay again, I would be more careful with the selection of accommodation, not Barrack Block No.3

It was a good place to stay and very close to the airport for a 1.30am flight. They are currently undergoing renovations so it was a bit tricky to get around and work out parking, however our overall experience was very good. I would stay there again.
