The Sebel Canberra Civic
One challenge was the property was lacking onsite parking. Lucky we were we had to park at the Wilson's parking during the weekend which was only $3 per day per entry.

Forrest Hotel and Apartments
The apartments were exceptional e.g. attention to detail quality appliances and facilities. The carpark is well lit at night ensuring vehicle safety. Comfy bed and fluffy towels, would have no hesitation in recommending these apartments, close to Manuka.

Novotel Canberra
Everything was great! Guys on front desk were amazing - nothing was a hassle and very glad to help where they could. The only thing is parking with a tall 4WD can be tricky as high ceiling spots are quite limited.
