I stayed at the Rex for 3 weeks, during the renovations. We were unable to get a renovated room as they were not finished yet. The lobby, dining areas, and ground floor bathrooms were very nice. The room we stayed in was a bit small and old looking, but I can imagine that once the renovations are complete, it will... More

Were disappointed with first room which looked out to the renovations in the courtyard, but pleased we were quickly moved to another room which was more than suitable. Very comfortable & clean room, very friendly & courteous staff. Bit disappointed that when room was serviced the clearly used coffee cups were not cleaned, but that was the only fault in... More

Our over night stay was greeted by the friendly staff at reception. We were on the first floor & our room was comfortable, the shower was good, bed very comfortable, loved the windows that open. We arrived back late to find a parking spot & notice the security guy doing his rounds. The buffet breakfast which was included in the... More

My husband and I traveled from Sydney to spend the weekend in Canberra. I found this hotel online and secured a great deal with buffet breakfast inclusive. We arrived and was greeted by a very helpful smiling lass. The room was clean and presentable with a nice outside view. Parking was a hit and miss for an available spot as... More

Enjoyed a 2 night stay with our 7/10 yo boys 20/21 Apr. The location is great, with a short walk to central civic with all the shopping and eating options. Very easy to find, and contrary to other posts, I did not have any trouble with finding a car park each night. Breakfast was good, with all the usual options... More

The Rex is a wreck! The hotel is undergoing renovations. However, rather than sectioning this area off, we were allocated a room on the 3rd floor amongst the renovations. Not exactly pleasant to be walking along dirty slabs of concrete down the corridor into a room where dust from the renovations has settled on the furniture (could see this clearly... More

My husband and I stayed overnight. We chose the motel due to good price and location. Whilst we had trouble finding a parking spot either in the motel or nearby every aspect seemed otherwise OK. That is, until overnight rain leaked extensively through our closed room window! My handbag and contents got soaked. I did receive an apology (very insincere-sounding)... More

rooms clean enough, very dated, food terrible, ok if you dont mind egg shells in your eggs, cold tomatoes every day and slow slow service. location is convenient but not in the best neighbourhood! waling track 100 meters away which is good.

My wife, daughter and myself stayed in the Rex over the weekend of the 5/4/13. We chose this hotel because of it's price and location. It is difficult getting a Hotel room in Canberra for three (my daughter is 17) for this price. We were not able to get parking inside the hotels grounds as advertised and needed to park... More
