Our stay at East Hotel was excellent as always. The room was clean, spacious, and comfortable, and check-in was smooth from start to finish. Parking was very convenient, especially with the on-site EV chargers. A special mention to Todd, who went above and beyond to accommodate our request even though I had mistakenly booked a different room type. Room service from Agostino’s was impressively fast, and every reception staff member we interacted with was respectful, friendly, and genuinely helpful. Check-out was also a breeze—it literally took under three minutes. I’ve stayed here multiple times and have never had a bad experience. East Hotel is definitely my go-to whenever I’m in Canberra. Highly recommended.

Great hotel, walking distance to Manuka Oval. Free bike hire makes it easy to get to Kingston Foreshore which there are many dining options and a nice ride along Lake Burley Griffin. Very friendly staff. If there is an event in eg footy at Manuka make sure you book dinner somewhere in advance.

It took three tries to almost get the correct room. First room was the wrong allocation. Second room smelt like human poo. Third room was the wrong bed size, dusty, dirty, mouldy, dirty carpet. The bathroom had toothpaste left stuck to the bench from a previous guest. The entire stay was terrible. The shower was like warm and I felt dirty after my shower. Don't stay here.

Our family really enjoyed our stay here. The room is clean and is being cleaned daily. It has a small library for my daughter and a gym for my husband and son. I find the bed hard but the rest of my family were ok with it. Some of the blinds were not working properly and we had to request for additional plate. Staff are friendly, approachable and seem knowledgeable when asked for informations. Basic toiletries are supplied and refilled daily. Kitchen is good for simple and limited cooking. You can borrow board games from reception.

Paid for a luxury apartment, definitely not luxury. Fittings not working, room too small even though marketed luxury. When I pay for an advertised luxury accomodation I expect it. Spa bath only big enough for a small being and kitchenette leaking tap that is obvious, minibar is set up like a cheap motel. Lovely bathroom products, great smell and lovely feel. Furnishings lovely, team members lovely, restaurants on site are excellent, foyer and welcome of high quality.

Only issue was the airconditioning. It was a bit warm and pad in room said 18 degrees. Checked with reception and told, they control settings and was 20 degress and only activated with movement. That explained we hot at night, no movement and no airconditiing. Asked to adjust to 18 and stay on. However, that evening, again, air-conditioning went off and hot. Disappointed.

Stayed here for a business trip in late August. Appearance from outside was appealing. Staff upon greeting were not enthusiastic. I had to ask about how to park also. Room presentation was great, overlooking the manuka oval. Bathroom facilities clean and decent water pressure after a long day. I had a meal delivered to the room, with a little of confusion but I ended up getting the meal. The bed was comfortable, the room was dark which I liked too. My night was very quiet which I always fear going to a hotel so a big tick here. Upon checkout I grabbed a coffee, very delicious and courteous cafe/restaurant staff. I wasnt advised there was a fee to park on site either ($20 for the privelege to park the car). I didnt appreciate that. Easy enough to have parked across the road at the kingston hotel at no charge. Overall I did enjoy the stay

Great property and would definitely stay there again. To be helpful and not critical the two things that could be improved are: 1. The air con system was difficult to set for what temperature we wanted. 2. We love a buffet breakfast that you can select what you want. At East Hotel there is only a cafe and you have to choose from a menu.
