Rory M. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

We checked in early which was great but when we got back in the evening we asked the receptionist for a late checkout which they said was fine and we would be able to check out at 12. The next morning we were woken at 10am with a staff member telling us to leave, followed by continuous calls from the front desk saying we have to leave immediately. When we explained that we already confirmed late checkout out we were told “too bad, we need the room back now”. Extremely disappointed and would not recommend this hotel to anyone due to the awful customer service.

Dear Rory, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. I am sincerely sorry to hear about your experience during check-out, and please accept our genuine apologies for the distress and frustration this caused. What you have described regarding the late check-out communication and the manner in which it was handled is unacceptable and does not reflect the level of service we expect from our team. A confirmed late check-out should have been clearly recorded and communicated internally, and you should never have been spoken to in the way you described. I fully understand how upsetting this situation would have been, especially after being assured the previous evening. Please be assured that your feedback has been taken very seriously. The matter is being reviewed with our front office team to address communication processes, staff training, and service standards to ensure this does not happen again. While I appreciate your positive comments regarding early check-in, booking experience, and cleanliness, I regret that these were overshadowed by your check-out experience. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We truly value feedback such as yours, and I hope you may consider giving us another opportunity in the future to provide the professional and respectful service you should have received. Warm regards, Elan Koirala Front Office Manager Mantra on Northbourne Canberra

Boris M. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

Over the years, my family has stayed at various Mantra properties and our experiences were consistently positive—bright, well-maintained serviced apartments that felt welcoming. Unfortunately, our recent stay at Mantra on Northbourne was very different. I booked a 4-night stay in a 2-bedroom apartment to celebrate New Year 2026 and my daughter’s birthday. As an ALL Accor+ Gold member, I expected a pleasant experience. Instead, we were allocated an apartment on the lowest level, with windows facing a black brick wall. The unit was so dark that we had to keep the lights on even during the day. The fridge was extremely old, and the freezer was clogged with ice, clearly not defrosted for months. I asked the receptionist about an upgrade, in line with my membership benefits, but was told there was no availability. This was difficult to believe, as the hotel appeared almost empty during our entire stay. The health club was another disappointment. Access requires walking down tow flights of steel stairs into what feels like the basement of an industrial building. The swimming pool was run down, with rusted fittings visible on the ceiling. The sauna did not function properly—it never reached the correct temperature, forcing us to pour water on the stones repeatedly just to generate steam. A sauna should be hot and dry, but this one was neither. We paid a considerable amount for this stay, hoping to celebrate New Year and our daughter’s birthday in comfort. Instead, our festive mood was overshadowed by spending four days in a dark, basement-like apartment. On a positive note, the women at reception were polite, but ultimately they did not resolve our concerns.

Dear Boris, Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your recent stay with us. I am truly sorry that your experience did not meet expectations, especially during such an important occasion for your family. Please accept our apologies for the apartment location, lack of natural light, and the maintenance concerns you highlighted. Your comments have been shared with our housekeeping and engineering teams for follow-up. Regarding your upgrade request, the hotel was very busy over the Christmas and New Year period with long-stay guests, and unfortunately all two-bedroom apartments were fully occupied throughout your stay, which meant an upgrade was not possible. I understand this was disappointing, particularly as an ALL Accor+ Gold member. We also appreciate your feedback on the health club facilities, which has been noted for review. Thank you for acknowledging the courtesy of our front office team. We value your loyalty to the Mantra brand and your honest feedback, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back and provide a better experience in the future. Warm regards, Elan Koirala Front Office Manager Mantra on Northbourne Canberra
