4-Starhotels in Canberra

"A by Adina Canberra is a perfectly executed urban sanctuary in the city's core. Its stunning, award-winning architectural design by Bates Smart feels both grand and intimate, immediately setting a sophisticated loft-like tone. The apartments are a masterclass in smart, stylish living. The open-plan layout maximizes space, and the thoughtful inclusions—from the superb Dreamcatcher beds and quality Hunter Lab bath amenities to the in-room laundry and full kitchen—create a true home-away-from-home. The inclusion of a coffee machine with pods is a game-changer for a perfect morning. Location is its superpower. Positioned at the Constitution Place precinct, you're not just in the city—you're at its vibrant epicenter. The hotel is embedded within a gourmet laneway, meaning world-class coffee (Redbrick Coffee) and dining (like The Meat & Wine Co.) are literally at your doorstep. Lake Burley Griffin and major cultural institutions like the National Gallery are a short, pleasant stroll away. For an elevated experience, the ”Destination A” upgrade is worth considering for its prime views, minibar credit, and exclusive perks. Note there is a $20 nightly fee for the convenient underground parking, and some rooms may have a view of ongoing adjacent construction (it's wise to request a room facing inward). Service is consistently attentive, rounding out an experience that seamlessly blends hotel luxury with apartment freedom. It’s an exceptional choice for discerning travelers who value design, location, and independence."

"A lovely place to stay. Very quiet and the staff were very helpful friendly and courteous.  The room was excellent there is however no in room coffee or tea facilities which was a shame."

"Crown Plaza Hotel located near Canberra centre point and next to Glebe Park. It is very convenient for shopping and entertainment. The breakfast buffet offers generous food and drinks."

"The room is small but well equipped. The bed is comfy. The public area is nice.  The library provides with free cold and sparkling water. It is so easy to bottle up the water before I head out for the day.  They also have a microwave and coffee machine. They provide complimentary apples which are crunchy and sweet. The $6 muffin is also good.  The neighbourhood is mostly government offices. The e Parliament House is in walking distance. However, it takes 10 minutes to walk to the nearest supermarket. The photo was the view outside my room."

"The room is clean. City view is brilliant! Location is convenient. There are quite a few restaurants around it."

"We recently stayed at the Canberra Rex Hotel as a family of three, traveling from Sydney to celebrate the New Year. While there were some positive aspects, our overall experience was disappointing. Starting with the positives, the reception staff were very nice and courteous, which we appreciated. We liked that it is very near a light rail station and quite close to parks, restaurants, and cafes. The layout of the hotel posed challenges. Our room was quite far from the lifts, and with only two lifts positioned side by side in a corner of the building, accessibility was inconvenient. It seems the hotel design is to blame, as the lifts are not centrally located like in most hotels. One of the biggest letdowns was the pool. We specifically chose this hotel for its pool, hoping our little one could enjoy it. Unfortunately, the pool heater was not working, and the water was freezing cold. To make matters worse, we noticed some bugs in the pool, which was unsettling. The staff wouldn’t have known the heater wasn’t working if we hadn’t informed them. It felt like the pool's maintenance and condition were overlooked, which was a major disappointment for us. Had we known that we won't be able to enjoy the pool, we would've settled in a hotel that is far more affordable. As compensation for the pool issue, we requested and were granted a late check-out, which was a kind gesture from the hotel. However, it didn’t feel adequate given the inconvenience and disappointment we experienced. Additionally, the King Suite we stayed in had some practical flaws. It only had one bin, which was insufficient for a family of three, as it filled up quickly. Another inconvenience was the shower area, which didn’t have any shelves. This meant we had to place shampoo and conditioner bottles on the floor while showering, which was far from ideal. Overall, while the reception staff’s service was commendable, the hotel fell short in terms of facilities and maintenance. I hope the management takes these points into consideration for future guests."

"Hotel is in a very good city location with access to light rail, coaches, restaurants and shopping mall within walking distance. Free breakie for kids too which was good and breakfast offer itself was acceptable. Apart from that you'd have to turn a blind eye to the state of the room itself (need to lower your expectations by a lot) , run down bathrooms ( needs major renovation), dusty bedsides and snack bar table, very crowded pool and lack of hotel car spaces."

"Good location and easy to find restaurants nearby, room facilities (such as washing machine, microwave and balcony) are very well. The breakfast is delicious!"

"the service was good, and the location is nearby city centre, just 10 minutes drive to CBD. the room is also clean too, but there is no free parking and we have to pay $15 for a parking over night. just only the parking issue, the rest are fine. maybe we come back to this hotel again."

"fantastic hotel. very clean, convenient and friendly equipments. good gym with many weight training equipments. pantries with pots and utensils, enough for light cooking. FREE laundry and drying service. very helpful reception."
