QT is in a refurbished building so some of the infrastructure is a little old. My first room was 14 degrees and wouldn't heat so had to move to another room which was fine. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms nicely furnished. The wifi in the reception/bar/restaurant area is woeful, around 4 Mb/s so too slow to do a video meeting as I discovered. It's an easy walk into Canberra downtown.

Bathroom had hairs on ceiling, and the grout/seal job around shower looks below average workmanship. Balcony needs a small table and chairs.

On website everything looks good but when entered the room everything was so old and outdated. The room we got first night did not had heating system slept in cold room, the balcony door handle was broken and cold wind was coming from underneath the door. The next room was good. If people are getting charged for carpark then its the policy there should be a space for car. Overall i do not recommend this hotel for anyone

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Nicely appointed, particularly the lobby, restaurant and bar. Ask for a room away from the lifts which are quite noisy- you can hear them shuttling up and down the lift cavity. The lower floors do smell like they may have been smoking floors in a previous life before the renovation. I also found the shower water pressure and temperature underwhelming. I expected greater things having stayed in QT in Newcastle and Sydney. The hotel was quiet affordable but just be prepared your experience in Canberra may not match other experiences at QT hotels.
