Average overall unfortunately (not what I was expecting). Builders started at 7am which was very not ok. That type of thing needs to be better managed if the product you're offering is 'rest'.

Location is very good, but the property is rundown, and badly maintained despite the staffs best efforts. Bathroom door and shower door wouldn't close, gym was rented out to basketball training, with noise from the balls and coach echoing in the rear service area and rear rooms from 4 to 6. The bed head was detached from the wall and leaned over the pillows, and no hot water on the departure morning. Just not good enough whatever the price.

Old Hotel with Southern Charm
The Brassey Hotel is an older hotel conveniently located in parliamentary area in Canberra. The staff is very friendly, helpful, and extremely informative. Bonus is the gym and spa co-located on the premises. Although there is no restaurant at the hotel, there are plenty of options for food in the immediate vicinity. The room was neatly organized and kept clean daily. I would stay here again when visiting Canberra!!
