A small room that was designed in a very clever way, making it look much bigger than it was. The bed was right next to a square shaped window with a good view (and very photogenic!). Very new and tidy facilities, beautiful aesthetics. Loved the library. There was an electronic tablet in the room that replaced the need for a phone in case we needed to contact reception.

Samantha Australia

Very helpful staff, amazingly comfortable bed and all amenities thoughtfully provided. Modern and very nicely appointed. I felt relaxed from the moment I stepped in.

Loretta Australia

A lovely, large comfortable bed, with a nice window view. A bonus was the movies available for free on the TV, made for an excellent staycation. The staff were also exceptionally helpful when ordering in from delivery services.

Sophie Australia

The room is lovely, beds and pillows are sublime and the lounge and bar areas are wonderful and make it so easy to work from the hotel. There are coffee shops nearby and parking is easy. Walking distance to parliament house.

Janet Australia

The large window next to the bed is very beautiful. Staffs are nice and helpful. The common area that the hotel has is very good for chilling

Ting Hong Kong

Small room but cosy and comfortable. The design of this hotel is quite unusual but smart. The hotel is very clean and well organised. The staffs are friendly and efficient and finally, the location is perfect for our needs.

Dieu Australia

Comfortable, clean hotel in a good location (although, in Canberra you do have to drive to most main attractions). Friendly, helpful, efficient staff. Easy book in and check out. Excellent free in-house movies.

Jonathan Australia

We were welcomed by a delightful, friendly receptionist who got us into our room early and advised us of good restaurants in the area. Love, love, loved the bed. it was so comfortable. Also, the lounge area on the 6th level was lovely with the comfy lounges and fireplace. Highly recommend.

Lea Australia

comfortable, relaxed environment. friendly staff . loved the honour system for the bar and lounge area ., nice way to start the evening .

Ann Australia

Staff were incredible. Friendly, understanding. Loved the Library. I work in hotels and love the honesty policy for the bar, in this time where getting staff is a bloody nightmare! Makes sense. Room was lovely but could smell the dampness from the condensation on the bed from the windows. We moved pillows so we both slid down bottom of the bed instead of crawling over each other. Bed too soft for our liking but thats subjective. Appreciate the staff letting us keeping the car in the carpark for an hour after we checked out
