Had a comfortable 2 night stay to see Floriade. Good location - 20min walk to most main attractions. Room had a very nice north facing aspect overlooking the garden and street, which was quiet. Parking available but need to book in advance. Restaurant has a good menu, quality food and friendly service.
The hotel needs a revamp - the carpet, wallpaper on the ceiling(?), bathroom, mattresses and furnishings are worn out. service on the front desk was friendly and attentive but our room was not refreshed. replacement coffee and cups asked for and left old dirty cups in the room. Would stay again if I wanted an average experience.

The hotel is a new idea grafted on to an older building. Readily apparent when you are confronted with sash windows which dont work all that well. Car parking is the worst aspect of the place: an 80 room hotel has just 20 speces reserved in a nearby building. Essential to book your spot. Rooms are not serviced daily if you have just a Queen Room. Neither of these features was obvious until you have actually booked or turned up in person. Not good enough. Also it was just too expensive especially when you add a $40 per day parking fee. There is quite a good restaurant in the foyer with a limited but good wine list- not overly expensive. There are easier places to stay in Canberra! Particularly if you are a motorist. The internet connection is not secure also. Staff are a bright spot. Endlessly helpful, cheerful and efficient.
