"Everything was fine and as expected. We have stayed at the Adina apartments before and would certainly look to do it again if ever we were back in Canberra. The staff were excellent and couldn't be faulted. Our only issue and it is a completely personal one was how soft the bed was and the use of loose fitting as opposed to fitted sheets.

Top Dickson Hotel Reviews

Forrest Hotel and Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Fantastic stay as always, been here 6 times before, a favourite haunt of ours"

Quality Hotel Dickson

10/10 Excellent

"From the moment we checked in the staff were very friendly. From the staff who maintained the room, the bar tenders and the restaurant/cafe staff all super friendly and helpful. You actually were made to feel like a local. We were informed we could join for free and become members to get discounts at the bar and restaurant. Near lots of good Asian restaurants, close to tourist visit stops. Close to town town. I also lived the support community with opening the restaurant once a month to local homeless people. They are charitable which makes it a better stay."

Canberra Accommodation Centre

10/10 Excellent

"I booked a double room without ensuite for myself. It was very comfortable and only a couple of doors from the bathroom and near the kitchenette, (microwave, toaster and jug and fridge). Large kitchen was down stairs. The bed was comfortable and the towels were new and large and fluffy..... such a treat. I never had to wait to use the bathroom and the facilities were kept very clean and tidy. I enjoyed my stay here and will return."
