We stayed 1 night in a Family room (2x adults & 2x teenages) and my parents in a separate room, it was excellent. Comfy beds and pillows, it was clean and spacious perfect for our stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The fact that parking was included in the price (as we had 2 cars) was the reason for choosing the Brassey. I would happily stay here again and recommend to others.

The hotel is fine. The only thing I was not aware and this is something I would have liked to know is that there is nothing around. I did not have a car so in walking distance, it was nothing. The staff were very nice, nothing to complain about.

I had a one day stay over in Canberra and fortunately chose this property. It’s close to most things in Canberra though has a quiet leafy feel about it. The hotel presents very well. There is a huge gym facility on the ground floor, if that is your requirement. There is a nice restaurant a short walk away, and markets nearby as well. So effectively you are quietly in the middle
