Rydges Canberra
Hot tub was good, the Sauna especially nice. Room was comfortable and quiet. The breakfast was good - it was good to have poached eggs as one option. The secure parking was ideal.

Everything worked. The room was a good size and had everything we needed. The lifts were quick and not crowded. The car parking worked well. Would recommend and return should we ever visit Canberra

Pavilion on Northbourne
Great room and location. Staff in reception and restaurant not quite up to the job. They make mistakes, ask me twice when I order takeaway coffee, and other frustrating issues. Very disappointing on this point.
