Good value for a large family (7 of us) Not far from most attractions in Canberra. Self contained kept the costs down and shops were not too far away. Good parking. Twin shower great when bathing little ones. Little bit cramped for 7 but you don't spend much time there anyway so not really a problem. Area was quiet at night. Only small criticism, kitchen needed a few items e.g plastic bowls, plates and cups (Ikea type) New toaster as it didn't fit in bread slices and a 4 slice one would be great) Knives needed sharpening. Linen was plentiful and clean. Overall we were happy with our accommodation and will stay again on our next visit to Canberra

Les points forts : Propreté et personnel et service
Not a five star
The Carotel is adequate that’s it, nothing fancy no extras not even what it says on the website. The worst thing about it is no pool as advertised, and the gas cooker can only be lit with great effort, you have to kneel on the floor to use the oven. The best thing about the Carotel is the staff, from reception to caretaker you get ultra friendly and super halfull. Be careful with the Wotif website I ended up paying $64 more than quoted. It is useful place to stay but don’t expect the Savoy.

Holidiay Cabin
While the tariff was very reasonable, the complex is undergoing complete renovation involving the demolition of many obsolete cabins, making the surrounds depressing. Our cabin required some basic maintenance (leaking taps, dead light bulb, etc) and there were cockroaches in evidence. The Office Assistant was very nice and most obliging..

This is a consistently clean, easy, pleasant experience. Stayed here 3 times. The price is great, location nice a close to the city/attractions of Canberra. Everything could be better but so what. It is always clean. The beds are ok. The space s fine. It’s not noisy. As an overnighter it’s perfectly fine. The staff are always polite and helpful. We had a few on working items - tv, light, exhaust fan. The staff were good about sorting them out. It’s not a 5star hotel - it’s a great, reasonably priced place for a family to stay. Thanks guys.

Everything was good at this hotel BUT I am getting very tired of those hotels/motesl that advertise Wifi but is not useable when connecting. This is happening more and more. Either they should advertise and provide wifi or not advertise it at all. If they advertised wifi but cannot guarantee it they should say so.

Best for groups with own transport
For a large family like us, staying here is always the choice. We booked two large family cabins for our group of 20. Cabins are large enough to accommodate 10 people at a time with enough room to move around. Clean and comfortable. Grounds are spacious and quiet, away from the city. Best for groups on a budget who are in Canberra for the tourist attractions! Having your own car is amust though as it is a few kms from the town centre.

Don't get your hopes up.
I guess that I should go easy on this hotel - after all, it is what it is. Budget hotel rooms as part of a caravan park. Still, for $105.00 a night, my expectations were for a little more. To be fair, it wasn't terrible, but extremely dated. I found it noisy - especially with trucks flying through the park at 6.30am on a Saturday. I could hear our room neighbours giggling away at 2.30am. Not the fault of the hotel, but clearly very thin walls. The shop is extremely well stocked, but it is a fair way from anything if you don't have transport. I was also not aware that the room wouldn't be serviced (we had a two night stay), so had to get fresh towels, shampoo and conditioner from the office.
Réponse de Sue le 2 mai 2017
Thanks for your extensive feed back. We are glad you enjoyed your bed and sorry to hear our pillow options didn't suit you. Fresh towels are indeed supplied daily, if you leave your used ones on the bathroom floor. Despite this information being displayed in each bathroom, guests sometimes miss the sign. We will still happily provide them at reception anyway. Kind regards from the Carotel team.

Don't stay up late. Don't sleep in.
If you plan on sleeping in after a late night, don't. The noise of made by children of inconsiderate guests will wake you up as they ride their cheap off brand scooters around the parking lot. Or the noise from the bus loads of school kids in the evening who can't read the quiet please sign on the side of the caretaker's building. Other than excess noise. The place is in a quiet area, at the foot of Mt Majura. The motel rooms have reverse cycle air con, nice big tv with only free to air channels. Comfortable kindsized bed that felt like it could be pushed apart. There was only one power socket, so best pack a powerboard if you need to charge many devices. The extraction fan in the bathroom is on a motion detecting timer, but it turns off after 30 seconds. Could be longer as it stops while your still in the shower, unless they want you to only shower for that long. Parking is not clearly defined for some units, if even at all. Plenty of Pokémon to catch in the area for those that need to collect all of the things.

Run down, dirty and not family friendly
We stayed for 2 nights with our 4 kids (9,7,3&1) in a 1 bedroom family room. The room was nowhere near big enough for 6 people! The room was so old and run down. The furniture and carpet were stained. The bed were so uncomfortable. The WiFi didn't work. There's no playground or any other amenities for kids. We definitely won't be back.
