We really enjoyed our short family holiday at the Mercure Canberra. The location was great (and in easy walking distance of the AWM), very good parking, the staff were very friendly, the building had old world 1930s ambience, and the buffet breakfast was a great hit with my daughter. An easy to recommend place to stay.

Beautiful heritage property but a bit of a maze
The TV in our room didn't work (reported to reception on checking out - didn't realise it wasn't working until 9pm). Trying to find our room from the secure carpark, even with map in hand, was a challenge. We were only there one night but our room was upstairs in an area without lift access. If it was a longer stay it wouldn't bother me, but dragging bags up one afternoon and back down the next morning isn't a great experience. Breakfast was included in our stay but the breakfast room was very crowded.
