Top Lake Burley Griffin Hotel Reviews

The Sebel Canberra Civic

10/10 Excellent

"Always a good stay. Friendly efficient check in. Spacious clean quiet rooms with great facilities. Perfect location for exploring the city and the Floriade free bus right outside the door. Highly recommended."

ibis Styles Canberra

8/10 Good

"Very helpful and friendly front desk staff. The bar could use a revamp and restock."

Rydges Canberra

8/10 Good

"Good location. Friendly and efficient staff. Good breakfast."

Crowne Plaza Canberra by IHG

8/10 Good

"Somewhat dated but still good. Strategic location. Walking distance to Canberra Centre, cafes and restaurants, as well as to the Floriade which is our main reason for the visit this time."

A by Adina Canberra

8/10 Good

"Staying first floor directly beside the construction wasn’t ideal for us staying a week. Booking that room out would be more suited for a couple of days only. Thought should be realised before allocating us that room and future bookings for a week stay. Otherwise okay."

Hotel Realm

10/10 Excellent

"Very comfortable standard suite with bath that my partner was very happy about. Staff were very friendly and helpful. They swapped out the non-functional coffee machine and reconnected the bedroom TV. Parking was convenient, dining area was expansive and comfortable. Didn’t get to use the spa/gym facilities."

Burbury Hotel & Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"It will be good if the spa was open and the roof top was open"

Novotel Canberra

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent service and assistance with local travel arrangements given the construction currently occurring in Canberra"

Hotel Kurrajong Canberra

8/10 Good

"The hotel is conveniently located close to offices, Parliament House, War Memorial Park in a quiet area, and the rooms are generally well maintained. However, our main concern was the bedding arrangement. We requested a king-size bed for two adults and our five-year-old child, but upon arrival, we discovered that two single beds had been pushed together to create what was presented as a double bed. Unfortunately, putting two single beds together does not provide the comfort of a proper king-size bed, as the gap in the middle makes it uncomfortable for the person sleeping there. This significantly affected our sleeping experience. While the location and room maintenance were satisfactory, the poor bedding arrangement was disappointing. Based on this experience, I am unlikely to stay at this hotel again."
