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!!

Great location and well presented staff. The physical building is beautiful. Lots of parking spaces. The room was large and the beds comfortable. It seemed that the staff had forgotten to fill up the shampoo and conditioner, which is annoying. The coffee machine in the lobby was broken during our visit, which disappointed me greatly.
