We spent 3 nights in the Garden City hotel on a visit to Canberra. It is well out of town for anything within walking distance but a 10-15 minute drive will get you anywhere you want to go. The hotel is well priced compared to others close to the CBD. The room was clean, the bed was big and firm and the shower was the best I have ever experienced in a hotel. The pressure available was tremendous. We did not have breakfast there, preferring to find a café a few minutes away so I cannot comment on it. There is a German Club next door which has very well priced meals if you don't want to go into town. There is also a golf club across the road, we did not try it but I assume food would be available there as well. Overall, gathered that you need a car to get to most attractions in Canberra no matter where you chose to stay, this is a great option

I wouldn’t stay there again.

Fridge was turned off to save money, fridge sets in the cabinet, so there is no room for the hot air from fridge to escape. Washroom was tiny. Toilet and sink was cramped. Inconvenient to use. Washroom exhaust fan was old and noisy like a diesel engine running. Pictures in the website are misrepresented.

This is a great spot to HQ a trip to Canberra. Great price, has a pool and the rooms are comfortable and quiet. Thought we were going to be too far from the CBD. However, its an easy few minutes by car and nice to retreat to some quiet after some full days around town.

Bathroom had a 70s vibe to it but was the cleanest I have ever seen, no mould whatsoever, well done. The draws and cupboards need that silicone padding to absorb noise or some other soft closing mechanism, cheap to implement. The windows are very thin and a lot of noise comes through from the road despite hotel in quiet part of town, expensive to implement. Everything else was excellent.
