The staff made me feel very spoilt. Any assistance I needed re television and air-conditioner was promptly and cheerfully attended to. My room was perfect, the balcony gave me space to set up my small easel so that I could enjoy a little watercolour painting. Meals were very good and, again, any small changes to the dish I ordered were cheerfully done. Hope to come back again before Christmas. Thanks everyone.

Lovely place to stay, great location with a short walk to War Memorial and then an energetic walk up Mt Ainsley. Central to everything. I was staying for work reasons but I will definitely bring my husband back for a weekend away.
Good location

Twas a decent enough getaway from the city. Very good location with free parking included & that’s hard to find in the heart of Canberra. The welcome bubblies was also most appreciated. We can’t fault the warmth & friendliness of the staff. They were genuinely nice people. However, the place REALLY REALLY REALLY needs a massive facelift. The dirty rickety lift, the stinky carpet in the lobby by the fireplace, the furniture, are sooo dated. We even requested to see a vacant loft room, thinking of upgrading. But upon inspection, the room was in the same state — pretty dated, and even dirtier ... the kitchen cupboards had cockroach poo at the sides, and the bathroom was moldy. The state of the hotel borders the fine line between “character” and “run down”. We understand, Olims may be an icon in the community. However, if Accor acquired it, then rebrands it with the prestigious “Mercure”, we expect a lot more. One more thing, although staff friendliness is faultless, numbers are left wanting. To have only 1 person man the front desk all the time, is not a very good idea of customer service. No one can help us with bringing luggage to our room, because that one person can’t leave the desk. No one will be left to check in the other guests. Again, no one can help us with luggage checking out. Same reason: that one person can’t leave the desk. What’s the point then of having the big luggage trolleys in the concierge entrance, if no one is available to man it? A good night’s sleep and pretty decent meals is what we had. A bit disappointed, all else, though. If there will be a major refurbishment, contact us for the re-launching and we’ll be more than happy to come back.
Charming venue in a great location

We had quite a long stay and it had a very homely feel. The room was large and comfortable, the gardens and common areas elegant and attractive. All of the staff we dealt with were excellent in their communication and friendliness.
