Novotel Canberra

Novotel Canberra

10/10 Excellent
"Very comfortable beds, great location only a short walk from a massive shopping centre. In-house restaurant was lovely with an cosy bar. There is a very hip “food court” with interconnecting wine bars just across the road. On-site parking was a bit tricky as it was full but good that the lit up sign displayed how many parking spaces were free (so I went around the block and 1 space became available)."
