Great location close to shops and restaurants in a quieter part of Canberra.
Thoughtful layout to make maximum use of the room space.

Staff very helpful and friendly; room is neat and tidy. Kingston Foreshore is only 10 mins away so great location if you want a drink and nice dinner by the water. The only small thing is the bed is two single beds put together so if you're couple that wouldn't be too comfortable.

Booked for 2 adult and 1 child and only have one bed to accommodate 2 people?
Had to sleep on the floor, so my wife and little one sleeps on the bed.
The worst experience ever!

Having checked prior to booking and also once I had checked in, that there were rooms available if I needed to extend my stay, i was then overcharged to stay an extra night. I was told at reception my same room was available but I had to extend my booking through the same booking agent, who would not mach the rate. I Have to pass this cost on to my client whom recommended the hotel. I was happy with the hotel, now I will look elsewhere. So will they.
