The lobby was nice, bar service was great, the room could have done with aircon but was ok as it was not too hot luckily. We had breakfast which was ok but we ate next door for dinner as the menus was vegan.

    I had a wonderful stay at the City Motel with my family. Canberra Lyneham Motor Inn is located near the city center, which was very convenient for sightseeing and shopping. The room was cozy and clean, with an attached bathroom and extra kitchen stuffs that we needed. The staff were very kind and attentive, and they went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. The price was also very affordable for the value we got. I highly recommend this motel to anyone looking for a family-friendly place to stay in Canberra.

    I loved that they were able to accomodate for a larger family of 2 adults and 5 children. And the kids loved all being able to sleep in a room together.

    Location was great, buffet breakfast had a lot of variety and quality was decent. Service was also great and everyone we came across was very friendly. Late check out at 11am is good. Arcade/Games machine for the kids in the lobby and activity packs on check in. Very family friendly. Great stay.

    it all depends on the purpose for stay. This was a kids / family friendly environment and not for someone on a business trip. It is so close to everything you might want to take the family to. Museums, botanical gardens, the zoo… reasonable food prices.

    The hotel was placed reasonably close to Canberra City Centre and the fun things for the kids. The staff were excellent, bright, friendly and helpful even though it was necessary to request maintenance in the bathroom twice. The food and service in the restaurant was excellent. I and my two great grandchildren aged 11 and 13 would choose this hotel for any further trips to Canberra.

    Ease of access to the property from the main highway, super easy check in, quiet, clean and so accessible. We were here for a week and at no stage did it feel cramped. (3 adults, 2 kids under 10) Great value for money. So easy to access any of Canberra's attractions from a great family friendly location. Will certainly book this property on our return to Canberra. Very pleased with our decision to stay.
