Beautiful property”
The Brassey Hotel is a beautiful property and a good location. We needed somewhere to stay for a cricket game at Manuka Oval and the price here was perfect. It is an absolutely beautiful old building. It has plenty of free parking. My only complaint is the water pressure in the shower was pretty much not existent. You gotta have good water pressure. I would stay here again though and definitely recommend it to anyone.

Thanks David it's lovely to hear you have found your home away from home when travelling to Canberra.
Really good stay”
Brassey Hotel was definitely one of the best hotels we've ever stayed in. What they lacked in facilities, they made up for in wonderful service. Pros: -hotel is located in Barton so within 20 mins walking distance to sights like the Old Parliament House, Australian Parliament, Manuka Shopping District, Canberra Glassworks, and Old Bus Depot Markets. - the bed is THE MOST comfortable bed I have ever been on in a hotel. Not too soft, not too hard. Same goes for the pillows - staff are very nice and polite. (Would like to give a particular shoutout to Eden who helped us out on our first evening regarding our airconditioning) - hotel is very picturesque and if you're into old school stuff, the Brassey Hotel is definitely for you as it's a heritage hotel dating back from 1927. - the free to use coffee machine in their reception area was a hit for my husband and I. Very appealing as it is winter so there'a nothing like walking out in the cold abyss with a nice hot cuppa. CONS: - hotel is old as mentioned earlier hence our airconditioning was giving us problems during our first and last night. During the first night it was locked into heating and it kept turning on and off to which Eden provided us with a fan and put the airconditoning on Cool as well as provided ua with another blanket in case we get too cold. On our last night, the airconditioning just didnt work the entire evening but as it's winter, it didnt bother us as much as we had a fan and it was still pretty cool - not much amenities in the rooms. Only one teaspoon is provided for your tea or coffee but I suppose it's due to the free for use coffee machine in the reception - no hotel slippers are provided - no in house room service. You need to call from the restaurants in the sister hotels or just order from UberEats or Deliveroo Overall definitely an 8/10 for us because the cons were pretty minor for us l. Will most definitely recommend to friends and family and will be very likely to stay here again

Good environment ”
There is a big gym room, with lots of equipment. There is one coffee maker machine at lobby area which is FOC, and I really enjoy it. Room quite small, but everything is ok, and the TV size is large enough. Car Park is free, but limited slots, if back after 9pm, it will fully occupied.

Cozy room, fab location”
Arrived at close to 5pm only to be told the rooms hadn't been cleaned yet , quite disappointing after a long drive. I had requested twin share, and at first they allocated me a tiny room which was unsuitable, but switched to a larger, more spacious room which I was satisfied with. Nescafe pod machine didn't seem to work properly but there was free tea and coffee in the lobby area. Beds were comfortable, windows opened for fresh air (rare these days with new buildings), excellent gym, but guests were unfortunately not allowed to use the plunge pool/sauna (only available if you book a spa treatment). Front desk customer service could be improved, but overall they were fine to deal with. Parking was free, but it was also easy to walk to old/new parliament and Kingston for some food. I did really like the fact that it was a charming older building with character, and would recommend Brassey for a budget friendly stay.
