We stayed 3 nights at this hotel and the location was 5 minutes to shopping and restaurants, and easy driving to major tourist spots such as the Australian War Memorial. The room was clean and had a well equipped kitchenette. The beds were comfortable but as with previous reviewers the noise was extremely annoying. The traffic lights outside our room... More

The hotel is in a very good location, in the city centre and very close to Coles Express, McDonald's and the Canberra Centre which is just a short walk. We loved the freebies such as Kitkats and the hot chocolate. Tea, coffee and milk were generously supplied. We booked a spa suite good for 5 people and the beds were... More

Stayed here in May 2013. Rooms were basic and neat, which is what to be expected for the reasonable prices. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location was excellent, just a short walk into the central shopping area. Biggest issue was the noise, firstly from the traffic and secondly, from the open breakfast area which began at 6.30am.

I have stayed here before and this time was a similar experience. With no car, it was easy to walk to the buses in the city. I appreciated having breakfast included in the room stay. Only downside was the noise of, I presume, emptying the restaurant bins early in the morning.

This hotel was ok nothing flash. Corridor had a very musky smell about it. The noise from the park & passing traffic was unbearable at times. We didn't realise the amount of hoons that drove around Canberra. The room overall was clean but I probably wouldn't stay here again.

We spent two nights at this venue taking the Cuddles and Bubbles Package that we read about through a RACQ email. The value was exceptional with a bottle of bubbly and chocolates each day,breakfast either in the dining room or with a breakky box, but the bonus was the three course meal in the Haig Italian Restaurant in the complex....

We arrived in Canberra just hoping to book in somewhere after driving up from Melbourne on the way home to Newcastle. The first couple of places we went to had no vacancies and it was getting late so a lot of receptions were closed. We drove past CEA and noticed the 24 hour check in so decided to go see... More
