The Hotel was very nice, good location and the staff very friendly. Unfortunately we were put in a room next to the lifts which was quite noisy. Our TV also did not work. The food in the restaurant was quite bland and found the pillows quite uncomfortable.

Great location. Staff friendly and helpful. Room and view perfect. Unfortunately we were put next to the lift and the noise it made going up and down all evening and then again at around 4am was not great. We were also put in a room with adjoining door ( thin as, no sound barrier) and could hear everything that the person next door was saying and doing. Not much rest was had. If you were after a peaceful relaxing stay it’s def not the place. If you can put up with a bit of noise then may be place for you.

A great location but urgent care needed!

I’ve stayed at the QT before and can say the standard has definitely dropped. The room was ok but looked a bit tired. The mini bar glass shelves were sloping and we found a bottle on the floor when we arrived! Hopefully it will be fixed as we informed reception. Cleaning staff could be a bit more attentive to the products that need replenishing - we got given one small tube of lotion for 2 people for 2 days. Was not replenished. Shouldn’t have to ask! The breakfast was very ordinary. Definitely a step down from a couple of years ago. Needs a bit of TLC. Also better instructions should be given for access with current road works.

Lovely area of Canberra to stay, easy access off Parkes way, as London Cct is currently getting work done. Lovely view from the Balcony and beautiful weather for the weekend was amazing. Bathroom was a little dirty in the harder to reach places like the corners of the shower. Bathroom was a little cramped with the toilet hard against the wall and the roll holder being leg height. Room was generally clean except for a spider that was squashed onto the ceiling of the room. Overall, great place to stay and lobely accommodation.
