Welcoming staff and easy check in. Room was clean and crisp bedsheets and pillow cases. Room air condition works well to adjust the temperature. My only criticism to this hotel is not having enough car spaces, had difficulty finding a space to park my car arriving late.

great service and stay!
Had a great stay ! I really liked that there was a heated pool as its particularly cold in Canberra this time of the year. Room was simple but well kept and comfy, bring your own slippers if you prefer to take your shoes off. The pizza and cocktails recommended by the staff from the in-house restaurant/bar were great and we ended up eating at the hotel 3 times in our 3 night stay. The service was excellent and the highlight for me -- kitchen catered to a lot of my ad hoc requests and the manager on duty most of our stay was super lovely, always asked us about our day at length, gave recommendations for places to visit in the area. ( Thanks for everything Qasim! ) We'll definitely choose Rex hotel again next time we're in Canberra.

A good spot!
Nice apartment and close to several eateries. Their own rooftop bar was nice too The room was very comfortable and we didn’t need aircon even when outside was freezing. No bottled water or slippers provided. Far too many emails prior to check in, during stay and even after! I prefer to be away from emails during my holiday please. Parking is first come first serve.
