Canberra Rex Hotel

Our room had a mouldy odour to it Room service for our evening meal was quick although the fish n chips were greasy,not much of a menu choice. Breakfast was really good plenty to choose from cooked beautifully. So decided to go upstairs for our tea , low and behold they same menu as the one sent sent to our room the night before. I really think they could come up with a better menu than what they have. Otherwise nice place

Amazing room/suite with a fresh and hot buffet breakfast to get us off to a great start. Bed was comfy and had a variety of pillows to choose from. Beautiful bathroom with separate toliet, was a nice private inclusion. Expansive views from the suite and the breakfast area. 1 issue was that they didn't make the bed properly or return the pillows to the bed each day (weird)

Stayed at the Rex with four friends, all on a motorcycle trip. Booked in months before, all good. Arrive on the day and were told sorry there's no parking, you can park out in the street !!! Not overly happy with leaving four very expensive machines out on the street, next door to a park with homeless people camping in tents. No disrespect intended. The young lady at the counter, name similar to Chimni, ended up finding a park for us under the veranda in a secure park area. This was always available but they weren't going to allow us to park here until we pushed the issue. The young man behind the counter with his eyebrows shaved into patterns was very rude and spoke down to us the whole time. Didn't catch his name, but he seemed to think he didn't need to be polite to these motorcycle riders who were very polite and had been in the saddle for the last 7 hours. . After settling in we were having a drink in our room and called room service to supply us with a wine glass. Sure they said, come down to reception and pick it up!!! THOUGHT IT SAID ROOM SERVICE ON THE SPEED DIAL. The Rex itself is very nice, in a great location and very comfortable. Just not overly happy with Mr eyebrows at reception. or the fact that we had nowhere to park. Four motorcycles can fit into one car park. Whilst parking there another bike rolled in and parked beside us in a car park area of his own. When asked how he managed that, he replied ":I just booked a room"

Had an amazing stay. Staff were friendly and accommodating wherever possible. Buffet breakfast was good, hotel room was nice and clean. It is a good stay for families. Only things I can point that would need a bit more off is parking spaces and pool to be heated a bit more specially during winter.

On our previous stay we were critical of a number of things. Thank you for listening. The room was excellent and staff were also very delightful. WIFI worked perfectly.

Staff were lovely, aircon did not work. Body creme bottle was empty. We stayed in the balcony room slightly bigger than the standard. Not sure what the need is for a balcony when there is no chairs or table outside. Pool is in the next building, so would have used it but too cold to get out of pool and walk around to head up to our rooms. You may get away with it in the summertime. We also paid for the buffet breakfast which was okay nothing fancy and not something that is memorable. Not cheap hence why I’m annoyed at the lack of service if you’re charging well for rooms. Close to the light rail. Then there is from the light rail about 800m walk to the floriade gardens. Would i come back, no, only if had no other vacancy.

Had an amazing time at the Rex Hotel, the hotel is very well staffed, free parking on site and location is very convenient. Pool was heated with good facilities, Room service available, Board games to borrow.. Not to add that the roof top restaurant was gorgeous too. Breakfast could be a bit more varied but overall it’s was generous and well priced. Will definitely be back!

Amazing venue for our strategic planning days. I was fortunate to have the one bedroom apartment, simply amazing, well appointed great view of black mountain amazing indoor pool great service. The bed was amazing, great food at the event dinner and our coach driver was fantastic with a rockstar style executive coach with leather seats and USB wifi to top it off. Simply the event venue to book in Canberra.
