Not a bad set up - basic but has what you need when staying away from home…read more The room is clean and has a well stocked minibar, though within a stone's throw away from the local Woolies, Aldi and Dan Murphy's. The building is definitely showing it's age, but the refurbish makes it a comfortable setting for a couple of nights' stay. Bed is quite comfy, extra blanket in the closet for those cold CBR border evenings. There is a couch, and a desk so a bit of space for sitting not just confined to a bed. Bathrobes available in the wardrobe and plenty of fluffy towel types of various sizes on the rack. Wifi available though my password didn't seem to work. There is an outdoor pool in the middle of the parking lot next to some grass and a BBQ - maybe in summer.. Overall reasonable value for a clean comfortable room. Close to supermarket and main Queanbeyan shops. Will stay again when up here for work next

The bed was amazing, great food at the event dinner and our coach driver was fantastic with a rockstar style executive coach with leather seats and USB wifi to top it off.

From the owner: Enjoy our hearty hot buffet breakfast which is inclusive in all accommodation rates, 7 days a week.read more

The ordering and paying via QR code was convenient and service was prompt. I enjoyed their calamari and was surprised it was cut like fillets rather than the usual calamari rings. The kids ordered steak (lol) which were huge and were thoroughly enjoyed by the young ones. Didnt get to try a lot but heard the drinks were good as well as their beef curry! Parking could be a challenge so it was good we had shared cars coming here. Dog-friendly! (they offer steak for the pups)

The service was fine, and the restaurant attached to the lobby really is that good…read more When I booked my hotel there was no information that told me that there was a huge construction site right outside. I went to work every morning which made the stay reasonable, but Monday - Saturday the construction crews worked from 7AM sharp to about 430PM. The construction also majorly screwed up my walking route to work as I had to cross multiple streets in L shaped patterns. This would have been fine, but crosswalks in Canberra are green for about 5 seconds. The fridge was OK, but filled with minibar junk I wouldn't touch. No complimentary anything. Bathroom was clearly built by UK designers as the shower overflowed onto the bathroom floor and the glass window which could have easily been 1-2 feet longer or use a door (what a crazy idea!) was just short for no reason so I had to mop my floor every morning. There's no breakfast option as I mentioned before there's a restaurant in the lobby, but you pay a la carte for everything, even coffee. It's good, but honestly just having a working coffee machine with one or two pots going is normal for even the most basic of motels. I would give the place 3 stars had it been half the price I paid. They really need to refund people's money if they expect them to stay in a place that has construction noise most of the day and construction that makes foot and car traffic awful. It's not really near anything as most of the places you want/need to go are due north or northeast of the hotel. QT seems out of the way for absolutely no reason, I really don't know why I stayed here.
If I could give this a 3.8 or 3.9 rating, I would. The hotel staff are nice and willing to help…read more The hotel restaurant and bar are good. If you just want drinks at the bar you need to pay with a credit or debit card as the employees don't want to go behind the front desk to get you change. If you have the exact amount, you're good. The hotel was recently renovated in 2018. However, each room seems to have a different thermostat from new to old, and the people I traveled with said their room AC either worked well or didn't. The cleanliness of the hotel was ok. There cobwebs in one corner of the room, and the bathroom floor looked like it hadn't been mopped in a while. Overall, it was ok, but if you're looking for a hotel in Canberra, do your research.
Airport International Motel
Recycling is important but recycling unused condiments back to the buffet from dirty plates is just…read morewrong!!! These guys get one star for the work man who seemed to be doubling as the concierge. He was friendly and helpful. They are obviously refurbishing an almost derelict motel but if you are going to open the standard needs to be a little higher. Let me start with the smell, a mix of air freshener and paint. The pool was clean but freezing! The room was cleanish however; the wifi information on the door was outdated, the fridge smelled, there were 6 light switches in a room designed for two, the spare linen was all tatie and the shower curtain was not long enough to be effective and everything was just aged in a way that wasn't quaint. Skip the buffet breakfast it is not worth it even thou it is complimentary.Toast, cereal and tinned fruit is not a buffet breakfast, that is less then is available at home. The coffee was instant! The juice was fruit drink. There were no pastries or yogurt or muesli or peanut butter or lite milk or cream or water or fresh juice or food handling skills. Condiments should not be recycled from the used plates back to the buffet, in a way I'm glad they didn't serve pastries as they probably would have recycled them as well. This place might get better but at the moment they have a long way to go.

So we stayed here for a night during queens birthday. Overall the experience was quite great…read more Location: Almost dead centre in city, next to parliament all the touristy spots, you really can't fault it! Facilities: Got a pool, gym, parking, full kitchen (though missing a pair of scissors for a kitchen), what more can you ask for! Setting: Perfect for a family. We had 3 families and a baby. With 4 bedrooms. It was perfect for us overall. Gives us room to cook and some common area to play. 2 bathrooms. Too easy! All rooms are heated too so perfect for a cold Canberra night. Condition: Clean enough for us to allow the baby to crawl around! One of the bedroom lights were flickering though but otherwise no big deal. Staff: Friendly! So what's wrong? - car park super tight. With any bigger suvs you'd seriously struggle to park - one of the bedrooms the lights flicker - we ordered an apartment with 2 queen beds and 2 rooms with 2x singles. 4 bedrooms in total. However only 1 room had a double bed the rest were all singles. Not what we booked.

The location is a bit removed from the city but it is close to the Parliament House and only a short walk to the lake in a safe area. It is a bit of a unique placement for a hotel on the top 2 floors of a parking garage, but oddly, it works well.

Having been in Canberra for business the previous evening, my wife stayed in a forgotten hell hole motel, booked by her company, for much more. Staff was very friendly and helpful. We ordered a 1 bedroom apartment for the night. Beds were comfy. Crisp clean white linen. Soft white towels. I believe the shampoos are for emergency only and you take your own if your'e particular anyway. Thought it was fine. Noticed the lack of cream, but wasn't bothered. Good selection of tv channels. Dual air conditioning. Dishwasher, microwave and kettle in kitchenette adds all the at-home convenience. Beautiful shower. Water a bit temperamental. Breakfast was awesome and well worth pre booking for the $19pp buffet. Clean room. I was impressed to find linen for the baby in the cot, blanket and sheets!(nice touch!) All and all a great place for business stay and even a romantic break. Complimentary late checkout 11am and like everything in Canberra, it has a central location close to everything. Nice selection of restaurants 1km away at Dickson Centre. Great experience. Found it pretty child safe too, so we had little to worry about our little walker. Highly recommended.
The reception night staff when we arrived were lovely, the room was small but every room in the…read moreAria has a balcony which is a bonus. They're also partnered with the Pavillion which is just behind the Aria so you can use the Pavillion's pool & facilities and also eat at their restaurant - which I'll also review- and charge to your room which is handy! And you can order Room Service from the Pav. There are a few reasons for my low-ish rating. We'd asked for a twin room & were told they could split the bed into 2 but were given a double & the hotel was booked out so they couldn't move us. This was only a minor annoyance for us but could be a problem in some situations... eg if you were *travelling* with a minor! The second reason that contributed to the loss of a star is the toiletries! I stay in a lot of hotels & have a reasonable expectation of moisturizer, shampoo & conditioner. There is no moisturizer at the Aria and the shampoo/conditioner was one of those god-awful "combined" ones that leave your hair like straw. I had to put some beeswax moisturizer stuff my friend had thankfully packed, in my hair. Finally, and this really annoyed me: we checked in at 10:30pm, didn't kick up a fuss about the twin bed situation, stayed 2 nights & had a laugh with the night staff both nights. We were harassed THREE TIMES in the morning to check out. They called at 10:30am asking what time we'd be checking out- weird. Then the cleaners knocked at 10 to 11. I had to finish an urgent email and didn't leave the room until 10 past which is pretty standard- the girl on the front desk called me *again* at 11:08 asking where I was- and my friend was already in the lobby with all our stuff! I don't know if it's standard procedure for them to rush guests out after 2 days for being 8 minutes late, or if she was just having a bad day, but I have to rate based on my experience! By the way we were part of a production crew that had booked a large number of rooms for a long stay. Oh the coffee in the lobby is really good.
A bit hard to believe that this hotel is as busy as it is. Conveniently located right on a main…read morethoroughfare, but not really close to the City of Canberra proper. The hotel is well kept but pretty darn old for a hotel/motel in a capital city. Rooms are good size and come in a variety of configurations. My room had a kitchen and full-size fridge, a couch, and a small table that functioned as desk. Bed linen was cleaned every other day or so. The layout of my colleagues' adjacent rooms was hilariously odd with a shared kitchen and bathroom. All good you say? Well, probably not if you realized one had the bathroom and the other the kitchen and that you had to enter the other person's room to use the facilities!

The bar/restaurant looked updated, as well as the lobby area. The staff was always friendly and efficient. They had a nice sized pool and hot tub, although we never did figure out how to get the sauna room to work right. There was also a fitness room. Parking was underneath and that was sometimes a challenge, as there didn't seem to be enough spots and most of them were quite small.

Only negative was that the QR code system wasn't working for ordering from the table, so we had to go inside to the bar to order but the service was always fast and if your order wasn't going to be ready right away (like another other than just pouring a beer) they gave you a number and would bring your order to the table. Atmosphere here outside was nice, but definitely want to try to sit inside next time to see more of the pub itself

Also very reasonably priced. Our room was nicely sized, had very basic decor, and a convenient little kitchenette. We wouldn't hesitate to stay at the hotel again, either on business travel or for leisure. Pluses: - Friendly staff. - Convenient location. - Enjoyable buffet breakfast. - Three fast and quiet lifts. - Comfortable beds. - Shower with hand-shower. - Fully equipped kitchenette. - Good speed internet Minuses: - Parking was not available onsite. - Curtains allowed light in the morning. - Weirdly mounted tv in the studio area makes watching tv rather challenging.
