Fantastic service. The roof top bar was great and very reasonable prices. Breakfast option of buffet or a coffee and egg and bacon roll to takeaway was excellent.

Great Weekend.

We stayed in a balcony suite that was roomy and with a large window/door offering a great view. The bathroom was huge with a large walk in shower but a pokey little counter top/basin, (no room for anything). The bed was very comfortable and the linens were new and clean. In our room th A/C unit was clean, but very noisy so we didn't run it at night. Thanks for the complimentary drink on Level 6. We also enjoyed one full breakfast in the restaurant and one take away breakfast roll and coffee, both were tasty and hot. It has been five years since we were here last and it is great to see all the renovations are done.

An upmarket hotel, everything was immaculate. Plenty of space in the room, bed was one of the best I have slept in for some time. Not a fault with their room service - quick in response, and fantastic food quality. The only things letting this hotel down, was as a traveler, it was difficult to unpack my luggage and to get it inside to my room, and the parking was minimal on the side of the hotel. Also, a hotel of this quality should have by now, upgraded their TV services to include streaming options rather than just the local TV networks.

This isnt even a hard one for me to review - 5 stars all the way. Great desk service, nice room, perfect bathroom, easy parking (access from two streets!)... the only thing I could fault is the toilet paper. This will be my regular Canberra accommodation going forward.

Spectacular on all fronts.

Absolutely amazing. I will be going back to this hotel. We stayed in the sauna king room and we were expecting an average room, but what we got was one of the top 3 hotels I have ever stayed in.

Property was clean and we had the king suite with extra bed so the room was not small but we went there for the heated pool and it was below our expectations let alone the fact that it was in a different building so the kids had to go through a small parking lot and out in the street with their swimming suits and towles to go back to the room so it was not very convenient. The breakfast was below average with very limited options
