Dull and boring... not Canberra's Diamant Hotel.

Diamant Hotel OMG! There is black and white swirled wallpaper - not on my walls - but on the ceiling. I have a green apple on my bed with the hotels business card. There is a stump of wood as the side table.

I like this place.

And I haven't even ventured into the cosy bar yet, filled with books, cushions, retro chairs and glimpses of the garden taps acting as light fittings in the nearby dining room.

I tried hard to stay here, and must have got the last room. Most sites were 'sold out'. I came cross fingered that my booking wasn't a mistake. It wasn't.

Rewarded, I am. It is just across the road from where I am working at ANU. Every room is unique. It has a good 'warehouse store' coffee shop, and the funky fitted out restaurant and bar. I don't want to work, I want to stay here.

This hotel beats the drab, run of the mill hotels that you can find anywhere. Grab some character, and head for the Diamant Hotel!
