Disliked: Amenities
The staff were helpful and nice. The room was in average condition, the bathroom and kitchen in sore need of an update with a temperamental shower. I stayed in an executive apartment which was spacious and airy with a balcony. It was expensive for the quality of accomodation. The area is very convenient with plenty of bars and restaurants but with single glazing the property is not for the light sleeper.

Good location and well-fitted-out apartment. The entrance from the parking area behind the building needs to be steam cleaned - very unpleasant.

Very very happy with the location and accomodation at the Quest. Period art deco style building with lots of rooms with balconies which extend the room size. Bedrooms and lounge are good sized and the kitchen has everything needed to cater for a multi day stay. Many restaurants and bars available at street level and again on the adjacent Sydney building which has a laneway eating venue too. Its walkable to Canberra centre and the wider spaced attractions easily accessed from local roads. The hotel has limited onsite parking which is open but safe. Staff very good as parking and room choice was granted as requested at the time of booking. Highly recommend this property.

Very impressed
We loved our night stay at Quest Canberra, sorry we could only stay the one night as a stopover travelling to Sydney. Our apartment was clean, neat and huge with large balcony that looked out over the street. Staff were friendly and helpful. Everything we needed was in walking distance. Our whole experience in Canberra although short was wonderful, we will definitely be back.

I have stayed at Quest before and it has been good. This time both TV's in the room weren't working properly and hotel staff couldn't fix them. The carpet was worn through the tap fitting in the shower had broken. We also had a knock on the door in the morning only to find a guy trying to scam me out of $50. He must have snuck past reception. While not a problem - I really didn't expect that in CBR.

Execellent accommodation in a great location.
My wife and I stayed in the Quest Canberra for two nights in October 2023. We loved the place! Very well located and the place has everything you may need. The room (Studio Apt) was spacious, in great condition, and very well appointed. We liked it so much that we are now looking for Quest in other locations as we tour Australia and New Zealand. The Staff were also very friendly and helpful. We have stayed at many establishments (40+) this year, and this was one of the very best.

This place is in need of maintenance. The elevator made horrible noises and panels had been removed. It was quite unnerving. The tap in the kitchen was really loose. The windowsill in the bathroom was very dusty and an ugly bamboo blind that had broken pieces was covering the window.

Quest here is good, nice people, pleasant room, but I have already begun strongly discouraging anyone I meet from staying in Canberra for leisure. I found Canberra to be an utterly disgusting part of this country, from the condition of the footpaths to the sub standard food businesses throughout the district, with only a few exceptions. If I was forced to stay in Canberra again I would opt for the small neighbourhood near the excellent Sonoma Cafe, otherwise I would avoid Canberra like the plague.

Always stay here when visiting Canberra…. It’s in a great location for easy access to shopping and great restaurants and a short stroll to Civic. The rooms are clean and tidy but avoid the balcony rooms on the weekends if you are a light sleeper (noise and loud music from the bars downstairs). Staff are always friendly and helpful

This hotel is just a party house for young people wanting to have a good time in a room that is unsupervised by hotel staff after hours as the reception desk is unattended at night and anybody can come and go as they please. Our room was opposite a room jam packed with rowdy youngsters playing ear thumping music all night till we had to ring the manager after midnight and threaten to call the police if he didn't do something about it. The room next to ours also had a group of very noisy men drinking and carrying on like idiots. Never stay here again. Wifi didn't work, phone in the room didn't work, nothing to watch on TV, bathroom dirty, carpets in hallways disgustingly filthy, parking was a pain in the neck, uncomfortable bed (rock hard), dirty blanket. For the price we paid, we could have stayed at the Hyatt or somewhere equally luxurious.
