Somewhat dated, room was clean and large. Car parking secure, breakfast deal and food was great. Staff friendly and helpful. Could have done with a table and chairs to sit at in our room to be able to eat at or simply just to be sit at… Only one sitting chair provided but 2 massive couches.

Quiet and cosy place with friendly staff. A bit outdated, especially in the bathrooms, however, clean and fully functioning. Like the peaceful 'before bed' time in the foyer, with the TV, the bookshelf (have some more titles there, please) and the chess board. Will recommend definitely.

We loved our stay here. Especially with the upgrade to include breakfast for the family. The room and bathroom was lovely, all felt very fancy. The floor was a little bumpy/uneven - no problems for us with two active kids. Pool is dated, but ageing kids had a great time in there. All staff were lovely and we would def visit again!

Loved finding this little gem in Canberra. We travelled to Canberra a bit but didn’t know about the Diplomat. How good is it! It’s a hidden gem. When it was built, it was designed with style, it’s a little bit dated but it’s clean and really funky.. It’s looked after and it’s classy. It’s It’s really good and the price was excellent - not overpriced like a lot of places in Canberra are these days. We usually stay in the Dorma group of hotels in Capital hill area, but they’ve since become over priced for what you get; the Diplomat will probably become many people’s favourite place too.
