Overall stay was good. It’s an old property and they have tried best to cover aging but shows up in bathroom, air conditioners, tv etc. Also strong odour from carpet when you enter into the room until nose gets used to that which takes a while. EV charging is a bit off a hassle. There are 4 self charging plug points where you can plug in your mobile charger. But only 4 parking spaces are marked for EV and so other cars occupy the other 2 spaces. One of the EV space is too narrow due to the pillars and parking a Tesla Model Y was a bit difficult. I had to close the side mirrors in order to fit in that space. Overall a good one and value for money.

Staying at this hotel was a pleasant surprise. I received a very good rate on Expedia and was very happy with our stay. The hotel is spotless in all areas including pool and gym. The staff are friendly and helpful. The room was standard hotel size but it was tastefully decorated, had small balcony, good aircon, very clean, comfortable beds. Pool was small but again very clean and great for the kids. Would highly recommend.

We were on an overnight trip to Canberra and found this property convenient as it was near the train station. The room was clean and the place was quiet. The gym was small though. But overall a nice experience.

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.

Great hotel in a quiet area. The staff were very friendly & accomodating, but we did wait for quite a while for service & delivery of food, more than likely caused by staff shortages. Other than that excellent se
