Reviews for QT Canberra
Stephanie Milford
I was excited to stay at QT Canberra, having previously stayed at other QT properties and had great experiences. Unfortunately, while this hotel has the same QT personality and aesthetic on the surface, it was difficult to ignore that the property feels quite dated. In my room, the carpet was lifting in places, which immediately gave the sense that the hotel is in need of some maintenance and updating. The main issue, however, was the bathroom. On both nights of my two-night stay, I had to call reception because there was no hot water. While staff were lovely and responsive, it took close to half an hour each night for the issue to be resolved, which was frustrating and inconvenient. Even once fixed, the shower was still only just warm with fairly low water pressure. I was staying for a work function held onsite, and the dated nature of the building was also apparent in the business facilities. Unfortunately, the catering was also below expectations. The food was less than average, one day napkins were not brought out, and the following day there were not enough plates provided for attendees. It is disappointing, as I have enjoyed other QT stays and expected a similar standard. QT Canberra has the brand personality, but the overall experience did not quite meet expectations.

Review: Stylish vibe, but let down by dated rooms and breakfast policy Overall Rating: 3/5 Stars My stay at the Qt Canberra was a bit of a mixed bag. While the hotel has a cool concept, there are several areas that need improvement to match its reputation. Rooms & Service The design of the hotel is definitely unique, but the rooms themselves felt quite dated. You can really see the age of the furnishings, and they lack the freshness you’d expect at this price point. Furthermore, the housekeeping service was only mediocre—it wasn't bad, but it lacked the thoroughness and attention to detail I expected. Breakfast: High quality, poor transparency The breakfast experience was the biggest disappointment, despite the food itself. On the positive side, the meals were delicious and beautifully presented. Qualitatively, the kitchen does a great job. However, I was disappointed to find no breakfast buffet; it was à la carte only. What bothered me most was the lack of transparency: additional drinks, such as a second coffee, were charged extra. This was never mentioned during the ordering process, making the extra costs an unpleasant surprise on the final bill. Summary: The food tastes good, but the lack of a buffet and the hidden charges for basic items like extra coffee—without any prior warning—felt like poor service. Combined with the aging rooms, it makes for a stay that doesn't quite live up to its potential.

Great value for money. The hotel was clean, modern, and well maintained, and the staff were friendly and welcoming throughout our stay. The location is excellent — right in the heart of the city and close to everything. The only downside was that the walls were quite thin, so we could hear people in the next room, and the balcony dividers were small enough that privacy could be an issue. Overall, a great stay with excellent value and a prime central location, and we’d happily stay again.

We had a great stay here quick overnight on our way through. Arrive late and left early. Great value for money. Staff very friendly. Fantastic coffee over the road at Mocan and Green Grout. Great vibe in the restaurant/ bar on ground floor

We came for an anniversary trip as we were seeing a show locally. For the money we spent the Stay was really disappointing. The highlights of the room were that the bed was comfortable. Outside of that the bathroom was disappointing, the shower was leaking and had terrible pressure and their shampoo, conditioner and body was are just in communal bottles on the shower, not connected or sealed so anyone could have tampered with them in any way, this is the first time I have ever seen this at a hotel. After the show we returned to the hotel bar for a couple of drinks as it was a Tuesday evening and most places in town were closed or empty. Not only were the drinks insanely expensive ($40 for a house whiskey and dry and a vodka lime and soda) they had grossly over served a group of business people, both men and women, that were yelling at each other, dancing in the middle of the lounge and very visibly intoxicated, especially for 9:00 on a Tuesday night. One bar tender attempted to cut them off and the other then served them another full bottle of wine to the table which was our cue to leave. Breakfast was also very disappointing, being charged $7 for marmalade glazed ham which was genuinely 3 pieces of grilled deli ham as well as $7 for 2 pieces of oven baked burnt bacon was really underwhelming. Having stayed at the QT in Queensland and Sydney and for $350 a night we expected better and were incredibly disappointed. We will not be back and will encourage others to make alternative choices. There is also a huge amount of road works going on at the moment which I understand is not in their control but was not communicated to us at any time during the booking process.
