This hotel is well located for the Parliamentary circle, and parking (paid) is good. The staff were very friendly, but a number were inexperienced and so not as efficient as they may be (breakfast restaurant table clearing, for example). The fitout is nice, but overall the hotel could better maintained - door frames around the room were chipped, and at least two of the service plates on the breakfast buffet had big chips in them.

Having arrived from a late flight issue in Melbourne at 1.45am i was pleased to have a room waiting. My stay was short, as I was up at 7.00am and out of the Hotel around 8.00am. The room had everything that was needed. Thank you for accommodating my late arrival. (Early morning arrival)

The hotel is average. The staff are worked to the bone. There is no staff to do breakfast and a person staying there jumped in to serve clients. What this should not happen. The rooms walls needs a paint. The breakfast is quite poor. Most hot dish’s are cold I wouldn’t stay again. It’s basic if that’s what your looking for.

Nice hotel close to Canberra attractions. Rooms were comfortable but not high standard as other Rydges. Housekeeping was lacking- no teaspoons, used mugs and glasses not replaced, milk and coffee not replenished. Parking $25 per night. Best part of hotel was the indoor pool.
