Small cosey hotel located in a quieter area compared to CBD, with several restaurants nearby. About 20-30 min. walk to Lake Burley Griffin and Kinston Foreshore. Overall, a very relaxing stay.

One of the best quiet hotels, great rooms and the longue and library parts of the hotel are wonderful spaces to chill and work, if the rooms are too cramp for you. Cosy rooms and comfortable beds make this a wonderful place to stay.

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. Very clean room . The lad who checked me in was so thorough & helpful explaining everything. The bed was a dream to sleep on. No view but love the auto sheer & blackout blinds. Rakeaway & restaurants handy. And within walking distance to all attractions including Leonardo da Vinci which was ama,ing. Loved my stay & will stay again.

Great central yet quiet location. Close to the main attractions in Canberra such as the Parliament, National Art Gallery, National Portrait Gallery, Lake Burley Griffin and a short drive to the National Museum and the Australian War Memorial. Friendly staff, the most comfiest bed, modern vibes, free parking on the weekends, wonderful lounge where you can chill and library to work at if you are here for work. The only negative is that the way the bed is positioned made it hard to climb in and out for non agile people like us, but the comfy bed made up for it 😄

I've not stayed here for a few years and there has been much development around which makes reception a bit harder to find these days, but still a great place to stay. Rooms, beds, facilities all awesome. Highly recommend.
