Location to Manuka is good, but
Location to Manuka is good, but a fair way to the city centre & tourist attractions. Cannot fault the service by the staff, the only down side to the hotel is the limited restaurant menu. Plenty of nice places to eat close by in Manuka & Kingston though. Stayed in a standard queen room, bed was comfortable and there were no issues with the bathroom. Well priced accommodation and would stay again.

Started off good, one receptionist
Started off good, one receptionist was extremely friendly and helpful. The first breakfast we were greeted and asked how we preferred eggs, poached is the best way to go(depends on chef), the plating started with 2 eggs and 2 toast, next day 2 eggs 1 toast, last day 2 eggs no toast!! FOUR star hotel?? Bar closes too early, 10pm when the shutters go down. The Friday night and dinner in the hotel, it was NOT of the quality for the price, also sitting next to people ordering a take-away pizza to their room and the hotel accommodated this! The bar closed early, risotto too wet, lamb shanks were tough, the cheese board was lacking in the menu declared varieties and they were extremely poor considering that some of the local cheeses are better. Loved the receptionist disliked the food and the restriction of the services (bar fridges in a room do not qualify as bar service (at those prices)) AND the TV did not have the full digital spectrum, minor, but!!(4* hotel)

in the en-suite with our room
in the en-suite with our room the shower screen on the side of the bath was very poor. It appeared a rubber slat was missing from the bottom of the glass screen allowing a lot of water to escape onto the bathroom floor. This could be very dangerous with children around or for folk not good on their feet. Restaurant food and choice average.

Diplomat was warm and clean.
Diplomat was warm and clean. We were travelling with children and it was well located within walking distance to Manuka shops. We have stayed at many hotels in Canberra and the Diplomat was better than many others and offered value for money. It is not a top class hotel but very comfortable and the staff are helpful.

the hotel was very old, I think
the hotel was very old, I think we had arrived after it had just been painted and there was a strong odour. The room itself was fine but the rest of the hotel did not feel welcoming to use the dining or other facilties. May suit more mature visitors

A clean, conveniently located
A clean, conveniently located hotel close to the major attractions and also close to Manuka town centre which is complete with a variety of wonderful restaurants, cafes and stores. With the exception of some night time traffic noise, I could not find fault with the hotel. I would have no hesitations in staying there again.
