My stay was pleasant. The room was very quiet and well insulated. The bed was very comfortable. I was pleased that two minor problems (a faulty bathroom light and a dripping tap) were quickly fixed.

I would like to point out one of your staff members, Arjun from the Novotel Canberra on Northbourne St, he was very helpful. When I arrived, I had injured my finger. Arjun went right out of his way to sort this out, I said don' t worry about this, but he demonstrated a lot of care, so thank you. Also, I explained I would like a quiet room, this is the first time I have been given a nice quiet room, and once again this was the service of Arjun. Out of all stays at this hotel, it felt for the first time I have been looked after.

Marion M. Couples - 3/8/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

I thought that booking with luxury escapes there would have been inclusions like better pillows, free parking, bigger bathroom. Could barely fit on toilet, hate to think how bigger people would have managed. Otherwise location and book in process was great
