Reviews for East Hotel Canberra
Clara Murray
I had a couple of nights at East hotel where I attended some training. This was a wonderful experience, the hotel is very nicely appointed, excellent restaurant (Agostinis) amazing showers, quiet rooms which are a nice temperature, complementary sweets and fruit, and a little kitchenette in my standard room. Staff were all very friendly and welcoming. The location is also excellent for a walk to parliament house and surrounding museums. Ubers arrived within 1 minute, and a short 10 min ride to the airport ($20 in an uber). I would definitely recommend and stay here again when next in town. Thanks to all at East for a lovely stay.

Such a nice hotel. The rooms were comfortable and clean. The hotel has a nice bar (Joe's bar) and restaurant (Agostinis) within its premises. We enjoyed a couple of meals there. The hotel was conveniently located near to the major tourist attractions (Qestacon, National Museum, etc). Would definitely stay here when we next visit Canberra.

Other hotels need to take notes from East Hotel, when it comes to family rooms. I still can't quite get over how amazing our experience was based on the $430 per night rate (bear in mind, it was off peak, but still amazing value). We booked a standard one room apartment with the adjoining kids' cubby - which meant that my husband and I had our own (huge) king suite and our kids had their own (fairly generous) apartment, with its own bathroom, bunk beds and kitchenette. But what really made it special was the kids' cubby being packed with entertainment - an xbox/TV, desk with colouring in (they'd called ahead to ask what our kids were into and the colouring in themes matched!), books, duplo, cuddly toys puzzles,board games!! Getting in from a 3 hour drive to a room filled with activities was an absolute treat - for both parents and kids! It was also very nicely furnished, everything new and immaculately clean. Every other accommodation option I looked at was at least double (in some cases, triple) the cost. I cannot recommend highly enough for families - this will be our go-to for Canberra from now on 👌

Canberra friends recommended we stay here and what a great decision that was. Everything was great about this hotel - ample parking and the studio room had everything we needed including a small kitchenette, bath and shower and super comfortable king size bed. A spacious room with a little balcony and easy walk to Kingston and Manuka shops & restaurants as well as the lakeshore. A special mention to the staff - all extremely personable and helpful. The whole place has a lovely ambience and the restaurant Agostinis downstairs was a great place to celebrate a birthday with friends. Thanks to the hotel for a lovely card and bottle of Prosecco waiting for us in the room. Will certainly be the place to stay for any future Canberra visits!

Thank you so much to the staff at East Hotel. My fiancé and I had such an amazing time here on our holiday. The room we had booked was so fantastic, and we felt the cost of the room was more than fair. It was such a great room, we actually had to force ourselves to leave to explore the city! The staff here were the most accommodating and amazing people. They were flexible with any requests we made, all so friendly and knowledgeable. Special shout out to Lucy, who knew the best places to get gluten-free food nearby. Conveniently the restaurant in the lobby, Agnostini's, was happy to cater for us, the pizza was amazing. Location was perfect, close by to everything but not in the heart of the city. Parking was secure and safe in the underground area. Thanks again to the staff at the East Hotel, we will definitely be returning to you in the future.
