Best Ainslie Hotels

"The room was very clean and tidy, and our dog and children were welcome. There were many families staying there. It was very quiet at night. The autumn trees on the nearby streets were beautiful, and you could take a walk nearby at night."

"the service was good, and the location is nearby city centre, just 10 minutes drive to CBD. the room is also clean too, but there is no free parking and we have to pay $15 for a parking over night. just only the parking issue, the rest are fine. maybe we come back to this hotel again."

"The room was probably just renovated, and all facilities were clean, tidy and comfortable. The hotel is located in the city center and not far from tourist attractions, which is very convenient. There is a problem. We booked the same room type with a friend. Our room is on the first floor, and the windows are opposite to the windows of other guest rooms, which are very close. However, the room that my friend booked on another website was upgraded to a suite on the 4th floor. Are Ctrip users unwelcome?"

"Took my relatives from overseas to visit Canberra. It was a nice stay. The hotel is in a great location plus parking is free. Rooms were comfortable and clean. Surprisingly the buffet breakfast was nice and value for money. Received the discount voucher from the hotel for my next stay. Will definitely come back when visit Canberra next time :)"

"Good location, just 2 minutes from Canberran light rail, not too far from the city centre. Super-friendly staff. Room clean, w/clean sheets and towels, but dated and a bit worn out. I couldn't figure out why windows were blocked in a way that only one of two could be opened and only on about 1/3 of its length. Kitchenette with tea/coffee, toaster and fridge on every floor. Lots of amenities on ground floor, including full kitchen, gym room, working spaces, nice, green courtyard. Would come back."

"Good location for what we needed, easy check-in, common areas are nice. Room was poorly cleaned with a great deal of dust on bed head, crumbs on the chairs and hair balls on the floor of the shower. Given it's on a main road it should have double glazing. The air-conditioning did not work and it was a warm night. Housekeeping tried to barge in at 9:40am - check out isn't until 10am and I'm not sure why I should be bothered before then. On the whole I would not go back and did not find it value for money."

"We recently stayed at the Canberra Rex Hotel as a family of three, traveling from Sydney to celebrate the New Year. While there were some positive aspects, our overall experience was disappointing. Starting with the positives, the reception staff were very nice and courteous, which we appreciated. We liked that it is very near a light rail station and quite close to parks, restaurants, and cafes. The layout of the hotel posed challenges. Our room was quite far from the lifts, and with only two lifts positioned side by side in a corner of the building, accessibility was inconvenient. It seems the hotel design is to blame, as the lifts are not centrally located like in most hotels. One of the biggest letdowns was the pool. We specifically chose this hotel for its pool, hoping our little one could enjoy it. Unfortunately, the pool heater was not working, and the water was freezing cold. To make matters worse, we noticed some bugs in the pool, which was unsettling. The staff wouldn’t have known the heater wasn’t working if we hadn’t informed them. It felt like the pool's maintenance and condition were overlooked, which was a major disappointment for us. Had we known that we won't be able to enjoy the pool, we would've settled in a hotel that is far more affordable. As compensation for the pool issue, we requested and were granted a late check-out, which was a kind gesture from the hotel. However, it didn’t feel adequate given the inconvenience and disappointment we experienced. Additionally, the King Suite we stayed in had some practical flaws. It only had one bin, which was insufficient for a family of three, as it filled up quickly. Another inconvenience was the shower area, which didn’t have any shelves. This meant we had to place shampoo and conditioner bottles on the floor while showering, which was far from ideal. Overall, while the reception staff’s service was commendable, the hotel fell short in terms of facilities and maintenance. I hope the management takes these points into consideration for future guests."

"We got referral from our friend and were very happy with our first experience here. We only stayed for 1 night. Clean, comfy, complete amenities. Close to everywhere, restaurant, supermarket, petrol. There are friendly staffs and easy to find the location. We will definately come back for our next trip to Canberra. Thank you so much."

"The hotel is quite good. The parking was in increased to A$28 if not pre-booked but trip.com says only A$15 and no need to book. The hotel ended up waiving the first night parking when we asked and we parked on the street the next day. The hotel room is very big and the beds are quite firm and comfortable. The bathroom is a good size but would appreciate rubbish bags into the bins because it feels like I can't even put in banana peel because I don't want it to go to mush inside the bin and someone has to dig it out and wash the bin. There is an iron and ironing board in the room with safe, extra blanket and pillows. The only complaint for the room is probably the noisy air conditioning. Food at the bistro inside the hotel was pretty good for dinner and the buffet breakfast had a good variety but it is the same everyday."

"Breakfast value for money  Overall very good value for money, good location. An adequate budget hotel if comfortable staying somewhere  comfortable not wearing top of the range clothing with top of the range accessories. Curtains need new hooks, but facilities in room adequate and clean "
