The hotel is average. The staff are worked to the bone. There is no staff to do breakfast and a person staying there jumped in to serve clients. What this should not happen. The rooms walls needs a paint. The breakfast is quite poor. Most hot dish’s are cold I wouldn’t stay again. It’s basic if that’s what your looking for.

Our third stay here, housekeeping was not up to standard - they came into our room when we were sleeping; room was quite small, marks on walls, shower flooded every night, very dated.

First the bad news, not much , the shower in room 336 spills into the main bathroom and does not drain, and the shower mixer taps are really fiddly. Also forgot to mention to checkout the seat back of the office chair is about to come off. The rest is good, ultra clean, great bed, bit of an outlook, good barista girl, great 11am check out which gave me time for laps in the great pool and spa. Good overall price. Very well designed property, best I have come across with a brilliant atrium.

Overpriced for a dated hotel in Canberra. Dodgy aircon blowing cold air even when off. View out our window was to an internal corridor, so we had to keep blinds closed. Breakfast buffet was understaffed, many items unavailable and a pretty poor experience. Staff seemed disinterested.
