The room & bathroom were lovely. The "King" bed, was just 2 singles pushed together so was a bit disappointed as there was an uncomfortable seam in the bed. A bit disappointed that there was no microwave to heat up puddings or porridge or milk etc. I could hear the people in the next hotel room, which wasn't pleasant especially late at night.

It was not mentioned...

We had buffet breakfast with a relative that was staying there. The food was very nice. However, as a wheelchair user I was disappointed that I could not reach the hot dishes to serve myself. The bench they were on is very high. As an adult I like to be autonomous, having to ask for help removes that dignity.

It is right across the road from the light rail and a tram stop, providing easy access all around Canberra. The hotel staff were excellent, very helpful and really made everything so easy. The rooms are very comfortable, spotless with ...
