Arrival instructions are out of date and sent us to a construction site. Our room had a strange smell. We tried running the taps for a while because we thought the smell was coming from a drain in the bathroom but it didn’t go away. Using the aircon helped it to dissipate - but as soon as we turned the aircon off the smell returned. The bed was way too soft and we had such an uncomfortable night feeling like we suffocating in the plush cushiony bed!

Stayed at this hotel five times in the last two months and last time they put me in an inside room facing some pot plants. It wasn’t a busy weekend, there doesn’t seem to be any recognition from this company if you’re a frequent customer. Just the opposite, I was punished!

I like the ambience of this hotel and the staff are cheerful professional and friendly but the only request I made to them, for a printout of my invoice, they were unable to fulfill, apparently the printer was broken. The night before when I asked they said to go get my own copy in the library. If I asked them to get me an invoice why couldn’t they do it. I’m a 63 year old male, I need breakfast before I can deal with a printer. I thought it was pretty poor they wouldn’t help me with my request.

The ad on expedia is somewhat misleading as many of the pictures utilised are not of the Little National Canberra. They're from a selection of hotels in the Doma group within a 'precinct' . The gym facilities are not within the hotel, they're in another hotel and you have access to use them but I'm not certain whether it's free to use.

Great stay! Great value! Only note is there is a bit of construction going on currently around the outside of the hotel and is a consideration for future stays within the medium term.
