4-Star Hotels in Australian Capital Territory, Australia

Excellent location in city center and very close to ANU, where I am going to visit. Also, just next door to the Bus Station, where I am going to travel. Price/performance is excellent. Environment and cleaning is also excellent. Strongly recommend.

I'm 6'3” and in all honesty the room I stayed in wasn't that Little. There is a library where I was able to walk around, stretch my legs a bit and I am sure there were other facilities I didn't have time to utilize. The staff was amazing, friendly and made me feel comfortable without being cringeworthy. The price was reasonable and the location was just perfect.

From the moment we entered the lift to this hotel, we knew it was something else. The scent of the crisp, bright lobby was warm and inviting. We where greeted with the bubbliest staff, who were ready to accommodate our every need. From check in support, recommendations on eateries and general info on the area, they had every area covered. The rooms where stunning, warm, fresh and comfy. So many small smart elements that topped it off! The best nights sleep, in a dark and noise free room! This stunning hotel made us want to stay in all night and not fulfill our prior commitments. We can’t wait to be back here.

Saw the reviews and was not expecting much. I have been surprised to be honest. The reception was helpful, check in was quick and easy. Our room was clean, well equipped and the bed, lovely and soft and we had the best nights sleep. The only gripe was the communal area toilets were grubby but that’s down to dirty people. You get what you pay for and we were comfortable and can only speak of our experience.

Overpriced, inefficient and dissatisfying would be the three words I'd use to sum up my recent two-night stay at QT Canberra. While the room price was affordable enough, the food and drinks are incredibly expensive. At the bar, a glass of wine starts at a minimum of $16 for a standard size and goes up to $44 for a large (that's a glass, mind you - there's probably some good bottles that could be had for the same price, and QT's 'large' glass of wine is more like a 'medium'). At the restaurant, they’re charging around $40 for pasta, $50-$70 for steaks, $42-$48 for other mains and $18-$22 for desserts, with the wines on the wine list even more expensive than the aforementioned figures at the bar. I guess they figure they have a captive audience in the hotel, so can charge any price they like? My first night there they couldn’t do room charges at the bar due to a ”technology outage” (apparently writing on a bit of paper who ordered what and their room number and then charging it after the fact was too difficult a concept to grasp) and they didn’t even bother asking if I wanted room charges on the second night, instead just having charges paid by card as if a normal bar. I did get a discount when I showed my membership, but they were never proactive in asking and I would've certainly been paying full price had I not been diligent in showing it to them. As part of my booking, I received a $40 food and beverage voucher to be used each day, yet both at the bar and at breakfast the staff seemed perplexed by the voucher. I was told to ask the front desk about it and had to get the respective manager in each section to take over both times - why are you offering vouchers to customers if your staff don't even know what they are or how to properly handle them? Continuing the voucher madness, there's a sign you can hang on your door which promises you ”a $10 food-and-beverage voucher each night you say 'no thanks' to housekeeping”. The fine print says that ”if you wish to participate, please hang this on your door before 1:00am”. Well, I did this, and expected to get another $20 worth of vouchers when checking out, but when I asked about this (once again, I'm the one who had to be proactive about asking - spot a theme here?), I was only given one voucher despite having the sign out for both nights I stayed there. I was told because “housekeeping hasn’t been today [the day I checked out] I only get one voucher” - what a nonsensical excuse. If I hang the sign on the door on Friday night and Saturday night and check out Sunday morning, how DOESN'T that entitle me to two vouchers? Oh well, it's probably a moot point anyway - the lone voucher I did receive had an expiry date of the same day (why would I want an extra $10 to spend on the same day I'm checking out? Logic would dictate it would make much more sense to be valid for a month at any QT location in Australia or something similar). There was a long wait for breakfast, involving queuing up for 5 minut

We had a great days in CROWNE PLAZA in Canberra. The room was clean and tidy.The staff was friendly. Especially at breakfast in the morning,One of the staff, ARYAMAN,happy a kind and friendly staff,Especially his happy smile,Made us for a lot of happy mornings. Lots of THANKS, from Warren Tozer and his families.

Stayed 3 nights in a standard queen room. The room was nice, although a bit dark as I was on the ground floor with a small window facing the hotels covered entrance. The bed was very soft, maybe too soft for some. The bathroom with walk in shower was compact but functional. The hotel is close the main attractions, with free secure onsite parking. Kingston shops are close by with many nice cafes and supermarket. It has a fully mini bar in the room but I found the prices too high, $9 for a bottle of beer, so I Didnt use it. I got a great rate for my stay.

My reception by Naveen and Dorg was cheerful and helpful; they provided clear and good info regarding the hotel, parking, breakfast and meals in the adjoining Labour Club, etc. Our room on the top 9th floor had a good view towards the Lake Ginninderra, although another high rise had partially blocked the view. Our room was an end room, a more spacious upgrade offered to us by Naveen. It was very clean- every nook and cranny- compliments to housekeeping. It was also nice and bright, as was the bathroom. Decor is very modern and up to date. Bed was comfortable and we had good sleeps. The hot breakfast in the Club was of good quality and variety and good value. Parking on level3 and level4 of the carpark was easily accessible.

From the first moment you walk into the room, the musty smell hits you like a brick! The room we had was very small, but that didn’t bother us at all. It was the stagnant, stale air and the unmistakable smell of a very old hotel room, which once-upon-a-time was inhabited by smoking guests. I tried without success to open a window - I was desperate for some fresh air! On night two of our stay, after returning from a full day out exploring Canberra, I was astonished to see that housekeeping had replaced our towels, but not bothered to make the bed, empty the rubbish bin or vacuum the floor! This property is described as 4-star on the Best Western website, I have no idea how they are able to claim this rating! The breakfast selection can only be described as bare minimum, but the most disturbing thing about the breakfast “buffet” was how messy the entire area was! We found crumbs and pieces of rubbish scattered on each of the tables holding the food. Needless to say, we took a hard pass on the breakfast! The only positive I have to offer about our experience at this hotel is that the water pressure in the shower was very good.

This place is great. It's clean. The rooms are massive. Nice staff, no fuss or BS. Really cool area, woolies and restaurants downstairs. Surprisingly cheaper for such a nice place. About as nice as Midnight in Braddon, but cheaper. Great value. Will stay again. Thanks

The room was nice, clean and comfortable. The hotel is in an excellent location and is convenient for shopping. It is very close to the shopping mall, with many restaurants and supermarkets. In particular, it is not far from the hotel to take a walk to Griffin Lake, where you can take a leisurely walk to watch the sunrise and sunset.

Accommodation was showing signs of wear and tear. Rubbish was not emptied. Repairs not effected in the room. Supplied bathroom plug did not fix sink or bathtub. The hair conditioner bottle was empty so not checked. Bed lamp didn’t work. Air conditioner was substandard in our room. On a positive note, the bed was comfortably

The room and bathroom were quite clean! !! The counter staff is very kind! !! About 20-30 minutes from the airport, but not too far from several well-known attractions, very convenient

Altogether it is an excellent hotel, with a few minor glitches. When I booked through the hotel I was convinced to take a superior room and was told I would get a view over the countryside, and breakfast included. I got a vied over the street and the sister hotel, with the noisy garbage collection very early one morning and leaf blowers the next. The breakfast one morning was fantastic (I even went and complimented the chef), but the next breakfast was abysmal, I think they ran out of sourdough and served the old tank loaf. The rooms have been beautifully refurbished with all modern conveniences. But you could not open the windows as the window winders were broken, also the bathroom sink had large cracks in it (which reception knew about) and the drainage in it was extremely slow, I think it was ready to block up. You may ask why I didn't ask to change rooms? After a long drive and lugging up lots o luggage, it was the last thing I felt like doing. But I would definitely stay there again the next time I go to Canberra.

Old charm meets modern amenities. We loved our short stay at hotel Kurrajong. From the entrance with the fireplace and warm and helpful staff to the garden for pre dinner drinks. Also enjoyed the plaques scattered on the walls detailing the hotels history with political and royal identities. A very relaxed and easy experience.

Had a nice night’s accommodation at the Rex & a good night’s sleep. Front desk staff were efficient & courteous. Parking was tight but ok. Foyer was welcoming & easy directions to find our room. Spacious bedroom & plenty of room to move about so was good all round. Would recommend the Canberra Rex!!

Avenue Hotel Canberra - Our room was lovely and clean. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Bed was very comfortable after a long drive from Brisbane. Room was maintained very well and check in/out was very straightforward. We will definitely look to stay again if we decide to come back on day! Marble and Grain - The waitress was coughing over all the serviettes she was folding and not covering her mouth or washing her hands. Had plates on our table and no one came up to clear them until a minute before we left. There was hardly any food left and there was only a small selection for $34 a head. Bacon was super greasy and scrambled eggs were very watery and cold. Staff looked like they didn’t want to be there. Coffee was okay. No one in the kitchen was wearing a hairnet or gloves when preparing food. Overall a great stay, highly recommended.

Pretty standard hotel, not good value for money in my opinion. The TV in my room was neither tuned in or connected to the internet, so a redundant piece of plastic. The check in was fine, but had to prompt for all useful information. The person seemed like they were new but checkin is pretty repeatable! Overall, it’s clean, ok location but overpriced.

Good location. Close to city. Very clean. Atmosphere is good

After studying in Canberra, I came back to travel and liked the hotel with a microwave oven with a refrigerator. The room is large, very clean and very convenient in the city.
