I love this property. This is my hotel of choice when staying in Canberra. It is not "new" and you might notice a small crack in the wall (hence my ranking of 4 in condition) but this isn't important to me. What I want is character, cleanliness, convenience (walking distance to Kingston shops) and easy parking. King sized bed is perfect with good linen. Can't remark on food options as generally out and about when in Canberra. Will be booking a room for a trip in November and to be honest - looking forward to returning!

Fantastic Stay

Everything was spot on, Car parking was easy, very clean larger room, with comfortable bed. We dine in the in-house restaurant both nights as the food was good. Happy hour drinks were well price, and the staff always friendly. We have booked again for our return journey.

Great family hotel

Great family stay. Large rooms, large bathroom. Comfortable beds with range of pillow choices. Easy parking either underground or outdoors within the hotel complex for larger 4wd’s. Free use of washer/dryers (which is very handy). Breakfast was delicious. Bar/Lounge area was great to relax and play games during happy hour. Quiet within the hotel, but slight road noise from our room, not enough to wake/bother us. Overall, would stay here again when we visit Canberra.

Location was great, however the infrastructure maybe 30-50 yrs old. It thus requires regular maintenance and upgrades. The water cistern broke one night, and we were given option either to wait until morning to fix it or change room middle of night, eventually it was fixed while we waited outside the bedroom intil 12am. Shower pipe bust on another day and repair done after waiting for 2 hours. Pools are closed for 2 months and should be advertised clearly online.

Located in a very quiet locality. Property is super clean. Staff is extremely polite and helpful. Nice happy hour experience. Stayed just for a night but had a good sleep. Very spacious room and a super comfortable bed. Loved the coffee machine in the room. Would definitely stay there again n recommend to friends. A good value for money
