Barton: hotel con bar

I really love the heritage feel of this hotel and we had a really lovely weekend stay. The reasons for 4 stars instead of 5 are: No room service (food delivery apps can be used instead, and there's an honesty snack/beverage station in the back foyer). Single beds in family suite are really saggy (the king size bed was great). No sink plug and the bath plug was too big for the plughole (I informed reception on checkout, and they said this will be rectified). Switch for light above TV near tea/coffee making area is inaccessible (unless you tilt TV forward and reach over) and this extra light would have been welcome as light in main room is quite low. Otherwise, it was a really comfortable room with lots of space and great blockout curtains. There was lots of parking, even on a busy Saturday night. There's two parking areas out the front of the hotel and a large parking lot out the back. It's walking distance to a great park and Lake Burley Griffin and close to Questacon and galleries, with the hip suburbs of Kingston and Manuka near by with so many great dining options. I'd definitely stay again.
