Lovely hotel and good location. We stayed in a twin room which the website states has 2 x king single beds - not so! They were normal single beds so my tall teenager was hanging off the end. The beds were very comfortable however. The room was really lovely, spotlessly clean, and lovely amenities were available within the room. We requested a room with a lake view (I didn't even know if this was possible) and our room did indeed have a view of the lake and Parliament House. There is some noise from the street but it wasn't too bad. All of the staff we came into contact with were wonderful- very friendly and excellent service in all areas. A special shout out to Matthew who checked us in on arrival 🌞. All of the food was wonderful - we ate breakfast and had room service. Negatives: Minibar was SUPER expensive so we avoided that, and there was no exhaust fan in the bathroom. Also - $35 a day for hotel parking when we are already guests at the hotel is just outrageous. We chose to use local parking instead.

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.

I can not comment on the hotel itself, this review is just for the extremely underwhelming NYE 2025/26 event. I would give 0/10 for this overhyped party, None of the advertised features were achieved. The whole event has been very embarrassing for the QT brand overall. I don't think (hope) they will do it again next year. Basic points: $199pp Included: - 1 welcome glass of bubbles on arrival - 2 grazing stations with some cheese, bread and olives, empty after 30 minutes, not restocked. -1 main bar with 3 bartenders overwhelmed by probably 200 guests, waiting time +30 min - 2nd Cocktail bar without adequate stock to provide the 3 offered drinks on the menue, choice between Prosecco or sparkling water in cocktail for 90 min. - Canapees infrequently rotating, not as advertised in the food menue and very low quality. Parts of the menue were not available at all. - Entertainment was not possible at all as the bar quey was occupying the dance floor and DJ area as well. - Too many people for venue, no standing tables, guests had to sit on floor to eat. Guests were expecting to enjoy the fireworks somehow but this was only possible as reflections in the windows. Many guest left disappointed within the first 60 minutes, we managed 2hrs somehow, but left for another venue at 10:30 in order to rescue some celebration fun. Summary: - More than underwhelming - Complete rip-off, not worth the money - Disappointing night

I want to start by saying I love the QT brand hotels, I’ve stayed and LOVED, Perth, Melbourne & Gold Coast all exceptional and this is the quality you expect when you stay at a QT hotel (they have set this standard themselves). Well except Sadly Canberra. When I exited the lift after work at 6pm I was greeted by 3 sacks of dirty laundry at 1 end of the corridor and at the other end 2 beds on there side (just outside my door). Not what you expect to see at this price point (felt a little motelish) I feel they bought another old hotel in ACT slapped the QT name on it, done some minor works to the rooms and though that the name would carry it….. it may work unless you’ve stayed at other locations and know what you should be getting. Sadly these rooms aren’t in great shape, the shower felt like I needed to wear flip flops as the tiles were discoloured and scummy with water marks all over them (I know it’s a shower but this felt like a public shower) & the water constantly flowing onto the floor out of the shower. The room felt tired and was very obvious needs a major overhaul and nice furniture can’t hide this, I was lucky to have a balcony and fresh air…. But out side the trimmings were is disarray. The door in the bathroom had seen better days and was split and hard to close, the main door hinge was filthy and the trimming on the cabinet had come off leave bare wood, Thea e are the things that would never be seen in a QT hotel. From such an amazing Brand like the QT, this hotel in there portfolio hurts the brand, I’ve stayed here twice recently and first time I didn’t write a review as I thought perhaps I was in a bad mood so I didn’t and thought I would give them another go to try and change my mind. The service from the team was fantastic. I’ve been travelling to canberra a lot and I can say I won’t stay here again. There are certainly newer and better hotels to stay at for this price point.

Not a great experience, someone's underwear still in the room. Fan in the bathroom wasn't working, broken lamp and the internet was very patchy. Also beyond they're control but with the current construction happening nearby and the police station so close all you hear is sirens and hammers not to mention housekeeping or something making banging noises inside the hotel in early morning. Restaurant wasn't open either so not a pleasant stay to say the least robes supplied but they're obviously recycled which is off putting as well.
