QT hotels have a great vibe and this one had an awesome bar and lobby. The room itself was dated, ugly and the beds were ridiculously soft. It was a real shame. I would never stay again.

It was a full hotel due to school holidays and I was in the end room next to the service lift and laundry collection point. Not a good start But the room was lovely (even though there was a building site opposite the hotel). The staff were fantastic and both the bar and restaurant are welcoming for the solo traveller.

Appreciated the staff reception and cafe, quick and efficient. Some room noise perhaps dumb waiter or lift, understandable. Excellent cafe menu and breakfast. Good location once the city construction detours are factored into travel plans. Very happy to recommend

We stayed at QT Canberra for a couple of nights. The rooms themselves whilst functional are a little dated and could do with an uplift however were fine overall. The restaurant & lobby were nice and the location of the hotel is convenient for accessing all parts of Canberra & the wider ACT via foot, bike, public transport or car.

Stayed 2 nights in a room near the lifts which is noisy due to lack of sound proofing (bit difficult to sleep). There are no lights from the roof near the bed and felt the room is bit darker. Couldn't find internal parking for 2 days but receptionist was kind enough to allow me to park in the drop off area on the second day. Parking was bit disappointing as we picked QT Canberra beacuse it has electric vehicle charging facilities. I did online check in before midday (paid) but there was no option to book parking. Location was convenient and the lobby area was renovated. Room rates seems to be fair but the inconvenience of the facilities offset that.

Mixed feelings. Room was good. Staff very good. But parking at $30 per night excessive, and if you choose the included breakfast option at $32 each, it is really poor value.
