Really lovely hotel with lots of historical charm. Our room was spacious, bright & very quiet, although being on ground floor there were issues with smelly drains. The outside bar space is great to have a drink after a busy day of sightseeing.

Overall, my experience at Hotel Kurrajong was positive, but several issues left me genuinely baffled—particularly for a hotel that prides itself on prestige and quality. And if it doesn’t, then certainly the price I paid reflects otherwise. During my two-night stay, I paid for both the room and breakfast. Despite confirming with hotel management that breakfast was included, I was told otherwise by staff. Even after showing the confirmation email, I was asked again the following morning by the same person. For a hotel of this caliber, such a lapse in communication is egregious. Staff should review guest profiles and internal notes before denying a service as basic as breakfast. While the matter itself was minor, it revealed a deeper lack of cohesion between management, staff, and guest services. Unfortunately, this reflects a broader issue within the Australian hospitality industry, where genuine, attentive service is far from ubiquitous. Having worked in the service industry across Asia and North America, I understand the challenges—but it’s disappointing to see such inconsistency in standards. Thankfully, tipping isn’t a requirement here, because the quality of service often wouldn’t warrant it. Regrettably, Australian hospitality has become synonymous with egregious service rather than excellence.

The main reason we stay at the Kurrajong when in Canberra is its history and the refurb which was really well done.The location is good for the National Gallery and Happy Hour is a good thing to do also. Felt that Room Service was a bit overpriced but Chifley's Bar puts on a good breakfast and the outdoor lawn area is nice.

Very nice historical hotel that is a walking distance to the old Parliament. It's situated in the quiet part of Canberra. This is our second time at Hotel Kurrajong and after so many years, it still delivers great quality for the price. The sofa is adding a little bit the whole place is well maintained.

Overall the hotel was great. There were a couple of issues that needed attention. 1) booked two rooms with one with two single beds. It took multiple reminder to have it changed. 2) one of the shower ceiling lights was faulty, notified front desk and there was no follow up.
