Rydges Canberra
I stayed for 2 nights and I brought my own breakfast items. The room was comfortable however I had to turn the air-conditioning switch off as I found the room chilly. There were no instructions for the room air-conditioning.

Pavilion on Northbourne
Would have loved to have an hand shower and not the tub with the shower. Aside from this inconvenience everything was perfect - the room service was to a high standard, staff were very well mannered and we enjoyed our stay.
