Top National Arboretum Canberra Hotel Reviews

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."

Madison Capital Executive Apartments

8/10 Good

"Breakfast ordinary but free. So you get what you pay for… it was appreciated. We like it for its location and value…."

Meriton Suites Canberra

10/10 Excellent

"Loved our stay. There wasn’t anywhere to drop off my guests at reception though, had to turn the hazards on and stop in a loading zone. The pool was great."

Forrest Hotel and Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"We only stayed one night but the whole experience from checkin to checkout was excellent"

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."
