Canberra Rex Hotel Review
Featuring fitness classes and a garden, the 4-star Canberra Rex Hotel is situated near the entertainment district of Canberra. This luxury hotel offers an à la carte restaurant and features ideal location with a such place of power and worship as North Canberra Baptist Church just 0.7 km away.
Breakfast is provided in the restaurant. Swan King restaurant serves Australian cuisine in a lovely atmosphere. Guests can relax and have a snack in the lounge bar.
