Rooms were well laid out, spacious and the bed very comfortable. The bathrooms well stocked, clean and the showers were hot and abundant. The hotel itself was unique, architecturally stunning and in an excellent location. The cafe downstairs did a very good coffee and breakfast was delicious. Really appreciated the hotels efforts towards sustainability and the use of environmentally friendly service and products.

Would have been good to have a swimming pool. Otherwise couldn’t complain at all.

I recently spent a Saturday night at Ovolo Nishi hotel and was thoroughly impressed! The staff were warm, welcoming, and went above and beyond to ensure my comfort. The room was spotless, modern, and tastefully decorated, with an incredibly comfortable bed. The amenities were top-notch. What truly made my stay stand out was the exceptional service. From check-in to check-out, every interaction was seamless and friendly. Highly recommend Ovolo Nishi for its outstanding hospitality, comfort, and value. I'll definitely be back!

Everything was perfectly there.

The interior design of the hotel is worth the price of admission alone. Really enjoyed the ambience however there were a number of disappointments. Asked at reception if we need to book for the Restaurant and they said "no. It's a week day so just walk in.." .... it was full. No problem...we went to the Parlour which was great! Hotel Nishi parking was full.. mmmm is it ever empty for guests...felt like a the usual Hotel rip off... Vegetarian every meal??? Nice to know when booking for the 95% of us that eat meat.

It was the best experience from the moment I walked through the doors. You walk through the most comfy inviting bar/cafe area to get to the reception desk. Check in was very smooth with free sparkling wine on arrival and a complimentary lolly bar. The room was amazing with a free mini bar and other free facilities you can order to your room. The staff were all so helpful and friendly, and the bathroom, bed, lighting and ambience was curated perfectly. Although the room I had was small, I felt so totally at home but also luxuriously pampered!

Nothing!

Room was large enough, well laid out. Enough hanging room and a place to put your suitcase. Alexa didn't work really well but still an interesting addition. Shower was great, nice and big. Loved the remote blinds and the subdued lighting.

The inroom Fridge was inadequate, when we introduced some of our own items to get cold it actually warmed the fridge up so everything ended up not cold. It didn't get cold till later on that night and was told it's not like your average fridge in the way it supposed to get things cold. ???? Needed some Power Outlets near the bed or some USB outlets in more convenient locations.

Lovely clean modern hotel a short walk into central ANU. The bar area is great for evening drinks or a morning coffee catch up with friends. The vegetarian breakfast spread is nice - the first morning the scrambled eggs weren’t replenished and dry but the next morning were great.

As others have mentioned the lighting is intentionally dark. If you like large windows with natural light this accommodation isn’t for you. Free mini bar is great but drinks a bit caffeine heavy - a mineral water or lemonade option would be great instead of cokes and red bull.

- Excellent concierge with efficient check-in process. - Affordable security deposit. - Unique yet stylish decor. Well executed postmodern, eco-brutalist interior design well matched with retro styled furnishings, all embracing an organic, functional elegance. - Free minibar and snacks. - Quality breakfast. - Exceptionally clean and comfortable. - Just a great approach to hospitality, relaxed and functional while remaining elegant without being pretentious (unlike this review).

- Elevator foyer could use some climate control. - Reception/Concierge desk location a bit too noisy. (It's a real stretch to list these as negatives, but pobody's nerfect, right?)

Loved the feel and design of the hotel, it was designed and built for sustainability and even though it is about 15 years old it looks new. Staff were exceptionally friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was very good and plentiful. The restaurant was fabulous, great menu and not expensive. The Palace Cinema is part of the hotel complex, as is an independent hairdressing salon. We would definitely stay there again.

beautiful setting , nice and flexible staff, nice decor and tasty breakfast with real food (no ultra-processed foods) and very close to ANU and the lake

the constant and loud street noise. I requested to be moved to a quieter room but they said they couldn't the day I checked in. staff did offer to move me the 2nd night but was too busy with work to pack and move early in the morning. they need to improve the soundproofing of the windows.

I love the ambience and the quiet in the walkways and room I loved the snacks in the room and the decor. I loved the foyer area. Very funky. A definite favourite hotel. So quiet and there's a sense of privacy Staff were excellent and nothing seemed too much trouble. i greatly appreciated their help.

A very small matter, but a clock would be good in the gym. There is also dust in the lifts as the colour seems to attract dust and lint. The car park is confusing at first due to layout, but easy to work out, eventually
