    I didn't even realise DEL had a Centurion Lounge until today. Anyone paid it a visit. It's at T3 domestic. and can report back? Specifically, better option than the other domestic lounges? Also looks like the Plaza Premium lounges no longer exist in T3. Perhaps re-branded at Encalm?

    Canberra Accor properties

    Hi all, What's considered the best/nicest of the Accor properties in Canberra these days? Full points earn is preferable as is an onsite gym. I'm guessing none of a exec lounge? Do they do anything above and beyond for plats? Location not too fussed really.
