I was almost put off by the reviews and was thinking of staying else where, like the Crown Plaza, however I happened upon an offer of a $99 a night deal with an upgrade to a deluxe room, so thought for that money I will give it a go. We stayed 2 nights and checked in on the Friday evening... more

Stayed 3 nights for work. I've stayed here a few times before. I really like this hotel because it's different to the other hotels in Canberra. On the practical side, my room was quiet, sound system excellent and the bed comfortable. It is more like being at home than a hotel. What I really like about this place is that... more

Everything looks lovely from the outside and on their webpage. In truth, the Hotel had been poorly refurbished and mood lighting installed to make it look like a "trendy" Hotel. Look closely and you will see all of the old bones of a delapidated building covered with a splash of paint. As soon as we entered our room, it stunk... more

rooms were really lovely, contemporary and clean (5 star). be prepared to carry your own luggage to your room. but wait until you go to have breakfast or lunch at the 'du jour restaurant'!!! dirty tables, tables with dirty dishes and glasses not collected etc, minimal staff (2). we had this experience 2 days in a row and forever to... more

Will not stay here again. For the price range, there are many other better hotels in Canberra. Like previous reviews, the room was smaller than expected, and the glass doors through to the bathroom with the light pouring in makes it hard to sleep in at all. The main problem though is that the bathroom doors in our room had... more

With a daughter living in Canberra we frequently travel to visit her; part of the enjoyment being a mini holiday. Given the variety of accomodation in Canberra, we have enjoyed the opportunity to experience different accomodation styles. The Diamant is a self rated property but I definitely would query why they have relied on their own rating as opposed to... more

I’m not sure why this hotel gets such good reviews. We were totally disappointed and let down due to the standard of our Deluxe Room. I had rung the night previously and asked for a nice deluxe room and it was basically the same rate as Wotif so I booked it through the hotel under the knowledge that our room... more

Stayed three nights at this hotel while my wife attended a conference. Like most other reviews we found the hotel to be of an exceptionally high standard in all areas. We have stayed in a number of hotels around the world, and this rates as one of the best we have stayed in. The bed was comfortable, ultra modern decor,... more

Why does no-one mention the light pouring in through the bathroom and being woken at 6am by the dawn? Major design flaw. We booked an executive room and all seemed fine until bedtime when I realised that the combination of a huge bathroom window and a glass bathroom door meant that the bedroom was flooded with light from the streetlights... more
