Room was great - clean and good-sized, and the bed was comfortable. The bar downstairs was nice to have some drinks in after a long day. The location of the hotel is good and walkable to some good restaurants. A bit of construction going on outside which can't be helped and will hopefully finish up soon.

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.
