"Great price and a nicely sized room with a resort or student village style layout, featuring separate rooms spread across a large property. It wasn’t as bad as some of the negative reviews suggested, although cleanliness could definitely be improved. While it’s not centrally located in Canberra, the city is relatively small, and it’s a convenient option if you’re driving. Overall, I’d recommend it to anyone looking for an affordable, relaxing, and decent place to stay without spending too much."

ibis Styles Canberra

8/10 Good

"Clean room, shower pressure good. The exterior of the hotel buildings looks quite old and outdated but the room was nice. Good value for money"

Madison Capital Executive Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"I can’t speak highly enough of this hotel. The price was great. The room was spacious and very clean. The bed and pillows were so comfortable. I had the best nights sleep. The free continental breakfast was really nice and had plenty of choices. You also get free undercover car parking. I’ll definitely be staying here next time I’m in Canberra."

Crowne Plaza Canberra by IHG

8/10 Good

"Check-in very quick & our room ready early plus parking was so handy but there’s a fee which was worth it. Good size rooms, very clean bathroom, comfy beds, lovely view. Staff so good nothing a problem. Great variety on buffet. So close to shopping centre. Only issue was the pool wasn’t clean to swim in."

Forrest Hotel and Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic, budget-friendly family accommodation in Canberra! This was our second stay here, and we liked it so much we have been recommending it to family! We stayed in a two-bedroom apartment for two nights with our family of four, while friends booked a separate apartment in the Blandford complex. The middle courtyard and barbecue area were fantastic for our two families to meet up, have dinner, and enjoy the beautiful gardens. The location is excellent - quiet but central - and served as a perfect base to visit the National Museum, plus Cockington Green and the Reptile Zoo over at Gold Creek. Great prices, free parking, and wonderful amenities for families. We’ll definitely keep coming back!"
