When is the best time to go to Higgins?

The best time to go to Higgins, Australian Capital Territory, is during the spring (September to November) and autumn (March to May) months. These seasons offer the most pleasant weather, with mild temperatures and less rainfall, making it ideal for exploring the local parks and outdoor areas that Higgins and the surrounding Canberra region are known for. Spring brings blooming flowers, particularly at the nearby National Arboretum Canberra, while autumn showcases beautiful foliage. For travellers looking to enjoy outdoor activities and comfortable sightseeing without the heat of summer or the chill of winter, these shoulder seasons provide the great balance.

"Our stay at Jamala Wildlife Lodge was an amazing and unique experience. It began with a scrumptious afternoon tea before an informative guided tour of the zoo with Ellie (apologies if the spelling is incorrectly). We stayed in a beautiful, African themed Giraffe Treehouse room and were able to enjoy the 2 giraffes, Skye and Khamisi up close. The room was tastefully decorated with unique African artifacts and was well-appointed and clean. Pre-dinner drinks and the delicious dinner were very...

"Everything was fine and as expected. We have stayed at the Adina apartments before and would certainly look to do it again if ever we were back in Canberra. The staff were excellent and couldn't be faulted. Our only issue and it is a completely personal one was how soft the bed was and the use of loose fitting as opposed to fitted sheets. This we found a little difficult to get use to but apart from that we could not fault the facility or its staff. We would and have certainly recommended...

Top Higgins Hotel Reviews

A by Adina Canberra

10/10 Excellent

"Location was excellent, staff were great. Clear communication and space was just right."

Deco Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It's an apartment hotel with laundry in each rooms, very helpful if you stay a longer time. Room is very clean, staff is very friendly and the breakfast is great. The unit is super spacious. To our experience, this one is better than Sheraton and Marriott, probably the best we ever lived. And, we do international travel a lot, more than 3 months per year!"

Pavilion on Northbourne

8/10 Good

"Stayed 3 nights in a one bedroom serviced apartment, with free wi-fi and smart tvs. It was clean, if a bit tired - the main carpet needed shampooing. The location was convenient, with free secure parking and a light rail stop nearby. Staff were friendly and responsive. Amenities were functional, with a gymnasium, outdoor pool and coin operated laundry. The Atrium restaurant and bar provided a relaxing space for drinks, snacks or a meal. I would have preferred to be able to order individual breakfast items rather than a full or continental buffet. I would definitely stay at The Pavillion when next in Canberra."

Canberra Accommodation Centre

8/10 Good

"Here’s a polished version of your review: The staff were very cooperative and friendly, and the kitchen facilities were excellent. However, the rooms were quite small. I booked two rooms for four adults. In my room, I tried to turn off the heating, but I couldn’t stop it, so I had to open the fan instead. In the other room, the heating was not working. Overall, despite these minor issues, I had a good experience and would be happy with my stay."
