QT needs to be really careful not to let standards slip. The bathroom had grout mold, the floor around the bed had chocolate and under the bed was someone’s deodorant. Wooden frames were cracking and splitting. I hope the owners understand that they have great staff, a fantastic bar, good location and views - but the number one asset is the building and its upkeep.

I had a great time at the QT in Canberra. The staff were really apologetic about the construction, but it didn't bother me at all. The room was beautifully decorated and fun, and the best part was definitely the bar. The entire staff were just amazing!

The hotel staff very pleasant to deal with, helped unload bags/suitcases. Our rooms were not yet ready even though we arrived exactly at check in time. The paid parking was full so we had to use paid parking on the street for the duration of our stay. Strangely the AC could only heat! we tried both rooms and were puzzled, it should be labelled heater rather than AC. The bathrooms did not have ventilation so any odors will be ready to greet you for test of your stay! Overall it was okay.

Great location, walking distance to Floriade, city dining precinct, and the National Museum of Australia. Room was spacious and well appointed. Beds were a bit too soft but comfortable. Common areas are funky, with comfortable seating. Breakfast was very good. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Would stay here again.

I was quite shocked at how run-down QT is now. We had actually booked a newer hotel closer to the airport, but since QT is closer to the city and I’d had a good experience staying there in the past, we ended up booking with QT instead. Check-in was a bit of a hassle, with only two staff at the front desk and three groups ahead of me, so it took ages to check in. We had a terrible sleep the first night because the bed was extremely saggy and soft. We should have called to swap rooms, but since it was late, we decided to stick with it. I raised the concern with the front desk the next day, and they were very helpful and changed our room after an inspection. Also another annoying thing is that it’s heavily understaffed I think, we tried to call after hour like 9pm (being told 24/7 desk) it took ages for someone to pick up, we had to call multiple times. On the day we left Canberra, we tried to buy some pastries from the lobby since we were hungry, but when we went to the café, we were told they never have any pastries… odd. Also, note there’s a lot of construction going on around the area. Overall, while the staff was helpful I will not stay at QT again. It’s nowhere near being a 4 star hotel.

No 'normal' coffee for non coffee machine users. Road works inconvenient, but not your fault. No parking - extremely annoying and we even paid for it!
