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.

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.
