Excellent - value for money 3 star hotel in great location”
We very much enjoyed this 3 star budget hotel/apartments and we will be using this place for all our visits to Canberra in the future. Compared to a ****hole in Quenbeyan or Fyshwick that costs more, this place is an absolute bargain. The rooms are small but neat and clean, and the bedding is good, the TV and internet is great, the location is quiet, and all round it is great value. This is not a hotel to stay at all day as rooms too small - but for value, facilities and location - unbeatable. The attached Sherwood Restaurant provides excellent value meals and they also offer room service which is unbelievable in a 3 star. All round highly recommended budget hotel in Canberra - probably the best value in town - I lived there for over 20 years so know. I am worried writing this as I fear the place will become too full when we need visit family and friends - but this place deserves it. Fantastic find - dont tell anyone.

Super friendly and helpful staff ”
The staff were lovely and accommodating, having owners who are decent people who treat both staff and customers well always shines through the ranks. The rooms are clean, quiet and the onsite chef’s food delicious with room delivery if wanted. I’ve stayed here several times, some rooms are larger than others but even in the smaller rooms they are cosy in winter with the heating no doona required, and cool in summer with aircon. The location is fantastic close to the city and Manuka and restaurants when COVID isn’t in full swing. I will continue to stay here when I travel to Canberra.

A very comfort and quiet accommodation.”
Well priced, and in a nice quiet location. We stayed in a 2bedroom apartment. It was very handy to have a small kitchen, so we could have a simple breakfast. Laundry with a washing machine, drier and complementary washing powder was extremely handy while you are travelling. Wifi was fine, however the bed was a bit lumpy and the decor was a bit dated. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend to everyone.

Nice handy place”
Just in Canberra for a couple of days visiting grandson and parents. Room reasonable size had asked for larger bed which we got looked like two singles put together, but you wouldn’t know. It was comfortable and had an electric blanket which was great given the cold nights . So good only noticed the reverse cycle air conditioner which we had not used. All in all pretty good at a great price.

A nice place to stay at this price point, with lovely staff in a good location”
Canberra at Christmas is quiet, which reflected on the hotel. A quiet hotel, in a quiet location. But very close to Parliament House. Canberra is a large city with everything spread out so it's difficult to say "this hotel is central" or "that hotel is central" to everything. That's impossible. But for the Parliament house and Lake district, this hotel was lovely. The staff were very friendly and accommodating. Enough onsite parking too. Restaurant and shopping district only two blocks away. The room was clean and the bathroom spacious. The only possible negative (and it's not a biggie) is that the restaurant boasts a 'bar' but it doesn't actually have a bar (that most people understand). And the restaurant closes early. However, given that I was the only person in there over a two hour period, there's really no point to stay open. The bar and restaurant staff are very friendly and the service was great. The price point is spectacular. We'd definitely return! Thanks for a lovely stay.

Lovely one bedroom apartment within walking distance to Manuka shops and cafes. It rained almost all the time but having an apartment meant we were comfortable and not tripping over each other. Washing machine a bonus. Will definately stay here again.
