COOKING AT THE SHERWOOD

 

Canberra's Winter doesn't seem to want to end in time for Spring. So why not warm yourself up by learning how to make (and devouring after), our chef's Tandoori Chicken and Avocado Pizza!

We have a new at home challenge for our wonderful guests! 

Recreate your dream holiday from the comfort of your home. This could be with props, a drawing, food, (whichever medium works best for you). Take a photo and post to social media, tagging us @forresthotel and someone you want to go on that trip with. 

Participants will go in a raffle to win a getaway for two! Reside in one of our newly renovated rooms and enjoy your night with a bottle of champagne! Challenge ends 30.09.20

See some inspiration from one of our staff's dream holiday photo created with her medium photoshop! She is clearly waiting for a sunny Spring. 



We have loved seeing your support all over the internet!

"First time to Canberra and to Forrest Hotel, we will be back!"


"Great location central to everything...Manuka for breakfast was only four blocks away and few mins drive in any direction to sights, buildings,malls and food. Room had plenty of space and amenities. Staff were warm and helpful and restaurant though expensive for amount of food received made exceptional salt and pepper squid...best I've had in ages."


"Will stay again. Staff were welcoming and efficient. Stayed in 2 bedroom apartment and it was clean, modern and comfortable. Location was central to everywhere I needed to go in Canberra."

"Will be back."

"Excellent Value!"

"So happy and satisfied!"
