What guests think

Knightsbridge Canberra earns strong praise for its quiet, convenient Kingston location near cafés, foreshore and attractions, modern clean rooms with comfortable beds, friendly accommodating staff, free on‑site parking, and facilities including a heated lap pool, spa and a small gym.

Many reviews highlight spacious apartments with handy kitchens or laundry in some units, efficient check‑in, and thoughtful complimentary snacks and drinks. A few downsides recur: occasional air‑conditioning problems, stained corridor carpets, some small or cramped rooms or tiny balconies versus photos, inconsistent housekeeping, and intermittent noise or cooking smells. Overall, expect a comfortable, well‑located stay with friendly service and useful extras.

two night stay to attend a wedding in Canberra. Easy checkin. Good location. Easy to walk to the lake and to coffee shops and restaurants. Room was small, but suited our needs. Quiet area. Good undercover parking. Pool looked nice, but as it rained we didn’t use it. Would stay again

The staff on reception were lovely and welcoming. Complimentary snacks and drinks in the room and free movies. The bathroom was remarkably big and had a bath and full sized shower. Only two faults were that the cups supplied did not fit the coffee maker (perhaps intended to use the water glasses?). Also the carpets, although clean, appear to have been wet-cleaned so crunchy under foot. Same in the corridors where the lighter coloured carpet shows water stains. All in all, a lovely place to stay in Canberra and we would highly recommend.

The location of this property is very good, close to Kingston shops, with plenty of dining options. Unfortunately, housekeeping was terrible. Used glasses left in the room, a random artificial sweetener empty packet was on a shelf when I arrived and stayed there for three days. I had to ask the front desk to clean a filthy couple of brown splash marks left on the bathroom floor by housekeeping. No care shown in cleanliness or hygiene.

The building is modern, great location. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Whilst rooms are nice, all 3 beds were as hard as rocks, sheets on one bed had fresh blood, doona on another bed had blood stains. Lounge which was also hard as a rock also had disgusting stains on it. Dirty towel was left in wardrobe in main room

We had a great 3 night stay, 2 Adults 2 Kids. Modern building, cosy, clean, fresh and tidy. We had all the usual things you’d find in a hotel room, together with a well equipped kitchen. We usually stay in the CBD but staying in Kingston was a great choice to explore the inner suburbs or Canberra. All staff friendly and welcoming. Large underground parking, the lifts take you straight up to your room level. Highly recommend and will stay again!

The location is fantastic- shops and cafes and restaurant in abundance nearby but a quiet spot nonetheless. The walk to the Kingston foreshore which is fabulous, is pleasant and easy. Bus services nearby are plentifuul if you have no car. the Accommodation was of high standard. Desk staff really helpful and pleasant. The only suggestion for improvement is to replace the hall way carpet on the ground floor, as its pervasive stain makes the entrance to the premises appear seedy and is not a true reflection of the high standard of the hotel. It really is ugly to be greeted by that awful widespread stain. Well worth its top rating by guests on this website though.

Here for one night on a business trip. I couldnt get inside to reception so entered the building as a guest left. A slight wait at check in but the lady at reception was very friendly and very informative about the accommodation & amenities etc. I had my dinner delivered via Menulog and the same lady delivered to my door very promptly. The rooms are quite nice, decor is spot on. A few stains on the carpets but thats no big deal, at approx 9pm I noticed by AC was not working and it had been a hot day reaching 34 degrees. The same staff member came in to check, she offered me an alternative room on the same floor which i accepted gratefully. The room I was in had traffic noise but otherwise a very comfortable stay (eventually).

the photos of the room suggested it was larger than it actually was, it was very cramped. On two occasions we could smell cooking in our room coming from somewhere in the building. The room and bathroom were very clean. But the photos on your website are very misleading in size and space.I have stayed in rooms in Japan that had more room. My partner was very unimpressed

Very nice 1 bedroom apartment to look at - very clean - high-end appliances, comfortable lounge, good shower heads and water pressure. Very spacious. Lifts are efficient. Entire building and grounds are very well maintained. Unfortunately a few things that the property managers may want to consider: We had the air conditioning turned up to 28, and the room was still cold (we checked we were on heat cycle). There is no exhaust fan in the bathroom, so everything ends up wet after a shower (condensation). The blinds in the bedroom are block-out, but there are very large gaps at the side - we were woken at sunrise, whether we liked it or not. There are no block-out blinds in the living area - and there are other apartments in another building looking straight in - felt like no privacy.

Exceptional service, always clean great facilities and inclusions. We were abke to use the microwave in reception to heat our food up. I stay here once a month when I'm travelling for work. My only complaint is that the aircon in every standard room ive stayed doesn't work well. I had it on cool at 18 degrees, and it was still warmer in the room than it was in the hallway. I had staff take a look but they couldnt work out why it happens

The room was fine but I paid extra for a "balcony" as we like to sit outside to eat our breakfast in the morning. The "balcony" ended up being a bit bigger than a juliette balcony that was about a foot deep and 4 feet wide - only enough to lean out. Not worth the extra $. Would have booked elsewhere had I known.
