The Marque Hotel Canberra

The location suited a person traveling alone, being walking distance to the main shopping area and with a selection of cafes close by to eat in. The room was functional with a reasonable sized fridge to keep fruit etc in.

Being on the first floor near the stairs there was considerable noise from the bar area at night. The restaurant was extremely expensive for breakfast with no facility for people who want something simple. The manager telling off a staff member in hearing range of people in the reception area was quite appalling!

Breakfast was good, so was the bed.

We came to Canberra for a wedding, starting at 4pm, Book in time was 2pm, that was ok. we arrived at 12.30. but a room was not ready, that was not a problem, we returned at 2pm, a room was not ready, we waited and waited a room was not ready until after 3.15 pm. We were late for the wedding, My sister stayed in the same looking room, to be offered another room wouldve been good, the room we had, had torn curtains. Wouldnt have called it a Deluxe room. I would reccomend it, telling people not to expect too much.

The bed was comfortable, with clean sheets and good pillows and the gentleman who brought breakfast up in the mornings was very polite.

The room was very out-dated. The lights did not work properly. The toilet did not flush properly. The spa was very noisy (I think something was broken). The table had a broken leg and I cut my foot on the bottom of it. The mirror over the spa was broken. The lady at the front counter when we arrived had very poor english skills and I couldn't understand her. The man at the front counter when I was leaving was rude and nearly overcharged me. Overall, very dissapointing, poorly maintained facilities.

Not much. Although the room was neat and relatively clean, the buiding was old, and maintenance especially outside and around the pool was in immediate need of attention.

The staff were deplorable so we left after just one night. No help with luggage, ignored when we arrived.

Leaving it

cold staff, filthy mess under beds, squeaky front door, leaking sink tap, the charge I've received for mini bar drink I didn't have, etc etc Wonder if it's payback for pointing out inadequacies.

the cleanliness of the hotwl rooms were very nice and particuarly loved the spa and king size bed.

the only thig would be how small the bathroom was, there wasn't very much room to move around and the style seemed outdated for the rest of the room.

Needs an upgrade. Foyer very dreary.

staff friendly and prompt with any requests.

Carpet in hall way needs replacing or cleaning.

comfortable

just hard to get into and out of motel with formal had to push my way through crowd because back door was locked.

The basic comfort and the location to the City.

There were obvious areas which showed the age, chips of the internal masonary, newer fittings in older surrounds, car park surface etc. Just dated the Hotel.

Location was good; breakfast was fine.

Old property in need of some maintenance, but that could put the prices up!

The restaraunt for evening meal had little selections. Those items on it were too expensive.I had booked the $15 breakfast on book in and my name and reservation were not at the restaraunt the next morning.Pissed off I left, got my bags and checked out.
