Unclean, tacky, worn down, mould on the ceilings in the bathroom. Construction site surrounding, noisy. This was not advertised. Included breakfast was gross. Stay somewhere else. Staff were nice though and I hate leaving mean reviews but so disappointed in our stay.

We found the downstair bar and dining areas to be great options for us. We ate both nights in the bar area. Staff that we encountered were fantastic, barman Sam being a standout!! The room we had is starting to show its age but in saying that it was perfectly serviceable and very comfortable for our 2 night stay. We will certainly stay here again when we next head to Canberra.

Would never stay here again
I wouldn't stay here ever again. Hotel doesn't mention 1.93m clearance on the website anywhere so my car didn't fit in the underground basement. We booked a room for 2 adults and 1 infant. No cot in the room upon arrival and had to follow it up twice with room service and received it after an hour and a half. Room had a terrible odour in it. Pretty sure it was from the sewer services in the hotel which are all blocked. We went to use the sink and it would take roughly 15 minutes to drain a basin puddle of roughly 15mm depth. Room had cob webs on the windows with dead insects in it. Got transferred to a different room only to have the same plumbing issues. I eventually gave up even trying to ask for help because I spent majority of my stay following things or asking for basics regarding hygiene or comfort.

Very comfortable rooms, everything is clean tidy and pleasant. Rooms have doors that open to small balconies and taking in the fresh air and views was great. There were building works around the hotel at the time we stayed so getting in and out by foot was tedious and there was a lot of noise pollution in the area. Good access to eateries nearby, but the in-hotel dining for us was not as good as we hoped. Great food though. We gave feedback on this so hopefully future patrons will have a better experience.

Everything in the hotel has aged and upgrades are needed to maintain the appeal of a QT. The bed was lumpy, rooms are dirty and carpet smells. Also, the front of the hotel is a noisy construction site for the light rail and they are building on weekends/night too. There was no forewarning about the construction before booking the hotel.

Room - 1403 - was in a bit of a sad state. No bottle opener, ventilation in bathroom was like 737 jet engine - I had to block it with a face washer - sink did not hold water at all, woeful water pressure, shower mixer handle fell off as soon as I touched it. Comfy bed, good pillows, ventilation noise eventually shut down at some point overnight.

after I booked the room online, I rang to see if I could get a room as high as I could. I was informed that I could get a room on the 8th floor. This was 2 weeks prior to check-in. when I arrived I was informed that my room was not available.... The room we had was dated. There was no proper ventilation in the bathroom and there was mold on the walls. the entrance to the bathroom had a slight rise which could catch out the unknowing elderly.

Beware Construction!!!
Beautifully designed hotel with great staff in dire need of some maintenance located on the edge of a major construction project 😳 Would stay again, but only after qualifying the state and location of our room. Friends who had breakfast in the hotel (we didn’t) were disappointed at the lack of fresh fruit etc. Staff we dealt with were all great and changed our room (issues with bathroom drainage and dysfunctional ac) without any fuss.. they are the only reason we’d go back. 😏
