Very Underwhelming

Well below average for a Mecure Hotel. Stayed in a single queen room, had snot up the side of the bedside table in my room, felt very dungeon like in the room as well (Bathroom was the nicest part). Horrible pillows. Could hear above or next to me go the toilet clear as day (both ways), and their TV the same. It was disgusting to be honest. There is a extra $28 a night charge to park a car outside in a open car park (which you need as it isnt very close to much, decent walk). The floor boards creaked so much with anyone walking above and in the hallway. You were awake when the earliest person near you was up and at it (floors and toolets). I stayed at the Deco Hotel in ACT the week before for work. For the same price (undercover secure parking was free), its like brand new facilities and their attached restaurant had better food and cheaper. Deco was quiet even though it is on a main road, easy 5 min walk to Lonsdale Street and ths city. I've had to stay another night in Canberra, but I checked out of the Mecure this morning and going back to the Deco for my last night this afternoon. I never complained to the hotel, however, will never stay at Mecure ACT again I felt that grossed out and tired after staying there.

A great little find with character

Great location. Friendly staff. Comfortable, well appointed room. The building & grounds have potential to be wonderful. They are slowly getting there, but more decorating with potted plants, umbrellas in the courtyard and softened lounging areas would be great additions. Bistro food was great & very handy on site.

I’ve stayed here a couple of times, the room is big and comfortable and the breakfast is great. Was a bit surprised at the price of parking $28 per night when all previous times it had been free.

Nice 'historic' hotel on the outskirts of the centre of Canberra; walking distance into town but the rental escooters are handy too. Easy walking distance to the War Memorial and Mt Ainslie trails.
