BreakFree Capital Tower Canberra - Canberra, Australian Capital Territory

I recently stayed at this hotel and had a mixed experience. On the positive side, the location was excellent, making it convenient to access nearby attractions, and the staff were welcoming and friendly, adding a warm touch to the stay.

However, the room itself left much to be desired. It was in serious need of a thorough cleaning, with visible fingerprints on the windows and a general lack of attention to cleanliness. The unit also seemed outdated and in need of refurbishment. Additionally, one of the bathrooms was missing a shower curtain, leading to water spilling all over the floor, which was quite inconvenient.

Overall, while the staff and location were great, the condition and cleanliness of the room significantly impacted the experience. With some upgrades and better maintenance, this hotel could offer a much more pleasant stay

A friend and I booked into a two bedroom apartment here for our 2 night weekend stay in Canberra. It is well located, with lots of places to eat near by and everywhere else in Canberra that most people would go to is really only a short drive away.||The apartment is very spacious, with two separate bedrooms: one main with an ensuite, the second smaller but still comfortable. Both with balcony access and gorgeous views of Lake Burley Griffin. The main bathroom also has a separate bathtub next to the large shower. The dining and living room also has beautiful views and balcony access with lots of lovely daylight streaming in and there is a fully equipped kitchen if you want to prepare your own food. There is also a full laundry room with washer and dryer in the apartment. There is parking available downstairs at a nominal charge.||We actually found this a very comfortable and convenient place to stay. Please note though that this is not a hotel, it is more like a serviced apartment. There appears to be no housekeeping for a short stay, or an onsite restaurant and this did not bother us.||This is a good hotel alternative if traveling with a friend and you both would like separate rooms like we did or for a family traveling with kids. The main couch in the living room appears to be a fold out bed too, making the apartment ideal for larger families.

We were a family of five staying at Capital for three days, and unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. The apartment was poorly maintained — the rooms, kitchen, dining area, and bathrooms were all unclean and had an unpleasant smell. Towels were insufficient, and the blankets, pillows, and mattresses were stained. The kitchen and toilets were particularly dirty, making the entire stay uncomfortable.

We also paid $35 per person for the buffet breakfast, which turned out to be a complete letdown. The setup looked more like a kids' party, with food served in tiny bowls, no hot coffee, tea, or milk available, and a very limited selection of cereals, fruit, and bread — no hot food at all. You could easily find a far better breakfast for the same price elsewhere. Choosing to have breakfast at Capital Tower was a poor decision.

Overall rating: 2 out of 5. I do not recommend this place, especially considering the price we paid.

Location was outstanding, amazing heated pool and unit extremely roomy. Main bed was comfortable. Bonus cooking area. However the unit was extremely tied and is in need of a major make over. Living area bathroom shower taps were broken. But able to use as a bath.

I was initially impressed by the size of the room when I arrived, but unfortunately, my stay was disappointing. The room was not well-maintained: the dryer was dusty, the bathroom was outdated, and the fan was covered in oil. The cooler also had dust. Additionally, there were only three tissues left in the box. Overall, it felt like the room had been neglected, and it impacted my experience. The receptionist didn't try to help us with our heavy luggage. I hope the hotel addresses these issues for future guests.

The Location of the property is excellent.
But, the apartment was very dirty. The carpet is very old & smelled very mouldy. I could also see few bugs in the. carpet.
The balcony was completely dirty as if it wasn't cleaned for years. There were moulds, spider webs & insects all over. It was very unhygienic.
The common areas were decently clean. The problem is with the apartment itself.

I really liked the apartment, even looking at the price of other apartments for sale in the building, however the biggest let down was the cleanliness of the property. The bathrooms are mouldy, the kitchen cupboards were dirty, and I wasn't confident that event the dishes and glassware was clean enough to use without washing first. In fact, it was probably the dirtiest hotel I have ever stayed in, in Australia.

Our family had a great stay. The apartment was very spacious, the beds were comfy, the kids loved the pool and the location was nice and close to the city and nearby suburbs we visited. We would definitely stay here again.
