Hotel review: Hilton Darwin, Northern Territory, Australia

It's peak season up in Darwin, as southerners rush north to escape winter (and hey, I'm not blaming anybody here - anyone notice that this is the second hotel pool shot I've blogged this week?)

The Hilton is the city's only official five-star hotel, and the pool is one fine reason to check in.

The 236-room hotel has held this city-centre position for years: old Darwin hands will remember the Hilton Darwin as a Crowne Plaza. The hotel is just behind the mall, and should you feel the need to swim with crocs, the croc hotpot of Crocosaurus Cove is just a few steps away.
