The location is ideal - close to the airport and restaurants are only a very short drive away. The room was very clean and tidy. Staff were friendly and helpful. The restaurant within the hotel was handy and had delicious food as well. I had a very pleasant experience and would happily stay there again.

Great property. Large room. Well appointed and clean. Canberra light rail station directly opposite which is convenient. Perhaps it's a little too far to walk to Civic, but it would be manageable if time permits.
Secure undercover parking is offered for fifteen per night, which is pretty reasonable for Canberra I think?
Only negative was breakfast shuts at 0930 and check-out is at 1000. Both seem a little early?
Also the breakfast (bacon, eggs, sausages) were all quite cold.
But all in all, it's a pretty good newer property for Canberra.
