East Hotel

Do Canberra

differently

Conveniently located in the heart of Canberra, East Hotel is a family affair with Italian roots. Our 140-room boutique property stretches the mould of a “design hotel” with an emphasis on moody and sumptuous interiors alongside warm and authentic service.

Since opening our doors in 2012, EAST has grown and become a destination for both visitors to Canberra and local Canberrans.

Visitors walk into our lobby and are instantly engaged, curious and surprised, whether they are staying with us, enjoying an aperitivo Negroni at Joe’s Bar, or sharing our house-made gnocchi and pizza at Agostinis with loved ones.

EAST is what happens when a passionate Italian family opens their arms and welcome guests into their hotel, just as they would at home.

There are plenty of reasons why we’re The No. 1 Hotel in Canberra on TripAdvisor

Testimonials

“Fabulous, this is probably the fifth time that we have stayed at the hotel. It is one of our favourite hotels in Australia - very laid back, lovely ambiance, lovely food and we love Joe's Bar!”

“Not an exaggeration but this is the best hotel experience I've had. Exceptional staff friendliness and helpfulness. Spacious rooms, comfortable bed, coffee pod machine, great bar and pizza oven, and the hotel's location near Manuka Oval and Kingston is great.”

April 2025

“Fabulous service and excellent value. Greeted warmly on arrival. Two excellent restaurants and a bar onsite. Very clean room and comfortable bed.”

September 2025

“Comfortable, cosy and cool with all amenities. Prime location close to galleries, museums and nice neighbourhood Manuka and Kingston , as well as the lake foreshore (for walking and riding).”

July 2025

“The room was amazing. Separate bedroom, with everything you need supplied. Beautiful bathroom amenities. Great location, and with the restaurant downstairs, there is no need to leave once you've arrived. Highly recommend this hotel and will definitely stay there again.”

July 2025

“I appreciate being able to stay in the room of my choice, with a beautiful view. I love the buzz of East, and it's hospitable atmosphere.”

July 2025

“Friendly and welcoming staff. Short drive to galleries and walking distance to restaurants, however the restaurant in the lobby is very good. The room better resembled an apartment than a standard hotel room. Had a great stay.”
