One of the best hotels I have stayed at. The room was so nice and very clean. I really enjoyed my time staying here. The bed was incredibly comfortable and well appointed rooms. The restaurant downstairs had the best Eggs Benedict I’ve ever had and it is within walking distance to all the great things to go see within the National Triangle. This will become my new home base for when I travel to Canberra again in the future.
