A firm favourite in Canberra
3rd time at Little National and it's a firm favourite for a short stay. We love the 2 lounge areas and this past weekend we made the most of the open fire and wine selection there .

Always wonderful
The main reason I choose little national is just its level of comfort. It’s quiet and the bed is beyond comfortable. I love a really squishy bed, but my colleague who was also staying with us like a firm bed and it worked for both of us. Hard to explain but it’s just perfect, the rest of what they offer is also perfect. A Coworking space, all of the things that you would expect in a premium hotel in a smaller package. And yet the room still feels kind of big.

Always brilliant, quiet, and cosy.
Every time I stay at Little National, I’m just so grateful that places like this exist. It’s the perfect bedroom, and the fact that there’s a common area that has tea and coffee and a place to work is incredible. I really like the beds, I have major problems with my hips and they are just brilliant. It just feels cosy and even though the rooms are small, everything kind of feels big in it.

Also love this place. But, the communal Library and Lounge on levels 5 and 6 - usually a highlight of any stay - was freezing cold. They were unusable. In a place like Canberra, the team really need to make sure the heating is on!

The only questionable thing about the hotel is the orientation of the bed. The bed takes the full width of the room meaning if there are two people, one has to climb over the other. Or move the pillows and sleep across the bed. Not ideal. Otherwise the hotel is great. Everything is new and clean. The staff are friendly and helpful. We’d stay again.

Lovely spot but loads of construction going on so noisy from 5am! The bed was massive and felt like a big soggy hammock. You rolled down the sides into the middle. Not comfortable at all! Pillows were those massive long things… yuk.

The position of the hotel to walk to Lake Burley Griffin, Parliament House and Canberra city is outstanding. The hotel is small which is a plus - good facilities if you’re staying for a business trip library/ meeting room . Neg - beds in a strange position (unable to get out on one side) and some building work surrounding but not noisy .
