Reviews for East Hotel Canberra
Elizabeth Willis
Such a lovely experience - due to delays I didn't arrive until 11:30pm: no problems. Smooth check-in. and 3 days later, smooth check-out. Room was so comfortable with everything I needed and beautifully set up with distinct areas and a balcony with chairs and table. Bed and bedding were excellent. Bathroom facilities were also excellent. Parking underneath at no extra cost.

Huge apartments compared to typical self contained. It was very well stocked, clean as a whistle and comfortable enough to want to live there. Loved being able to walk into Manuka and appreciated the fab restaurant at ground floor. Apartment was quiet at night, felt completely safe alone. Staff were friendly, helpful and non intrusive.

I don’t usually write reviews, but this hotel truly deserves one. I travel to Canberra around four times a year and have stayed at many different hotels, but East Hotel is a clear standout. Everything about it is exceptional — the location is ideal, the rooms are spotless, and the restaurant serves delicious, authentic Italian food. What really makes the difference, though, is the staff — they’re all genuinely friendly, professional, and always willing to help. I honestly can’t fault this hotel. East Hotel has become my top choice whenever I’m in Canberra

This was my first stay at East Hotel, and while I’m unsure I’d stay here again, I would definitely return for the restaurant and bar alone. The food was a real standout — the pizzas were exceptional and hard to go past, and the bar had a great selection of drinks. It’s a fantastic spot to meet up with colleagues in a relaxed and vibrant setting. Unfortunately, the hotel experience didn’t quite match the quality of the dining. While the customer service was friendly, the room itself was a letdown. It felt consistently cold and never quite warmed up, which made it uncomfortable during a winter stay. Similarly, the water temperature only ever reached lukewarm — both morning and night. For business travellers, the lighting and desk setup weren’t ideal for extended work sessions, especially compared to other accommodation options in Canberra. On the plus side, the room was spacious and comfortable overall. I wouldn’t recommend East Hotel for winter stays, but I’d consider it again in warmer months — especially if dining is part of the plan.

Great rooms. Seamless service. Smiling, knowledgeable staff. Top notch food and drinks. Central location. If you travel to Canberra, stay here. 3 of the best eating/drinking venues in Canberra are on sites. Joes bar and Cafe where you will be served by Lucas and team. A man who knows his cocktails. I asked for an Old fashioned and got the best version I have had anywhere. Dinner the Korean/Japanese fusion restaurant the night before was unforgettable. Order sashimi and Japanese beer. Fabulous. Concierge staff were attentive and friendly. Coming back soon.
