A popular quiz question is: what’s the capital of Australia? If you answered Sydney or Melbourne then it’s time to discover the real answer – Canberra. With Parliament House at its core, Canberra fans out across both sides of Lake Burley Griffin to reveal a diverse mix of museums, restaurants and bars filled with curious tourists, political persons and public servants.
Canberra was created as a solution to Australia’s 2 largest cities squabbling over the right to become the national capital. The Limestone Plains region in New South Wales was chosen as the site for present day Canberra. It was a good choice for nature lovers as it is surrounded by bushland, mountain ranges and, more recently, wineries.
The National Gallery, National Museum and National Library of Australia highlight Canberra’s cultural riches. Other notable institutions to visit are the High Court of Australia and the National Film and Sound Archive that stockpiles a collection of Australia’s early radio, television and film history.
The military also plays a significant role here with many training facilities for the army such as the Australian Defence Force Academy. An unforgettable experience is attending the Anzac Day Dawn service at The Australian War Memorial.
Australia’s cultural capital with a political punch has many hotels, motels and apartments on Booking.com for that city trip, business jaunt or family holiday.
Canberra is a wonderful city to visit. Heaps to see and do with some fabulous restaurants. Gorgeous in the Autumn, especially on the lake. Take into account there is a lot of construction happening in the city so some attractions like the War Memorial are a bit less than they can be. The extension to the light rail is still under construction but will be fabulous when it's done.

Love Canberra.
Love Canberra. Used to live in Canberra and now retired to the country. Still visit Canberra regularly due to family still living there. Lot of people give Canberra lots of negativity, but the city is beautiful and a great place to visit.

I would say if a coloured map of Canberra could be available to people, A Map will full details including sites to see eg Resturants, parliament house, mountain drives, tours. I did find a map but the lettering was too small to read and insufficient information. The Name of the Apartments could be clearly shown.

School holiday trip with the grandsons.
School holiday trip with the grandsons. They loved the dinosaur museum and miniature village.
So many places to visit, we needed more time.
The work going on around the War Memorial made it a bit difficult to look around the grounds and parking was limited as it was the week before Anzac Day and many areas closed off. We decided to give it a miss.

Paying for bus tickets was pain as no cash is taken - drivers are very generous letting us travel free but I dislike not paying my dues . Cash will be useable sometimes during 2024. From City Walk we walked to War Memorial - spent all day there. Poppy Cafe is good. Tickets free but book a slot on time. Slot is 2 hours but if u need more just ask one of the many room guides if they can extend your ticket. Grab a free tour of highlights when u arrive. Takes almost your 2 hours but guide will fix an extension. For seriously interested visitors (like us) they offered to give us all day. Also there is a separate Last Post ceremony every day. Needs separate ticket. Best view point is on 'balcony' overlooking Eternal Flame or in the open air (at balcony level) furthest away from Eternal Flame. It,s all free so buy a 5 AUD guide book or make a donation. As for Parliament visit (both places have airport style security checks) that also is deffo worth time. the Museum of Australia was different and interesting - several good cinema type films to watch. Visitor Centre in Commonwealth Park is a good first stop. Lovely lakeside walks decent cafe and very interesting story of how Canberra was built from scratch. Helpful staff and free leaflets. We could have filled 5 days rather than 3.

We were disappointed. We went there for a weekend.
We were disappointed. We went there for a weekend. There was no hop on hop off buses in the weekend, why not? It should be a lof of tourist in the weekend. We bought My way tickets instead, but the buses in Canberra have such small writing on the screen that says next stop that we couldn read it, and the volume was so low that we couldnt hear it in any of the buses (and we are NOT hard of hearing!). On top of that, the bus to the railway station didn,t go to the station. There was no message that said that, and no exception on the description of the stops. We went too far and realized it. Locals that helped us to find the way told us this happend all the time. If that is so, why don,t you fix the information?
The Ramada Diplomat staff were really accommodating and allowed an early check in which I really appreciated. My room was spacious, clean, comfortable and warm. Reception provided accurate walking directions for me to grab lunch in the day, and dinner and breakfast at the hotel restaurant was excellent. They also provided the invoice as requested for this work trip. Highly recommend to all visitors to Canberra, the location is also very convenient if travelling by train. Thank you Ramada Diplomat team.
We booked two apartments for a family wedding and the staff generously upgraded one of our rooms to be a high rise apartment with a great view, and directly opposite the 2nd large apartment. The rooms were excellent and the staff very friendly and very helpful. Location (near Lonsdale St) and parking were excellent. The below ground parking was generous and easy to access. We will definitely return for a foodie weekend / week and general Canberra holiday. Thank you Pacific Suites !
Instructions provided made it extremely easy to navigate. As a young family with an infant, we were pleasantly surprised the unit was comfortable for three. Spacious shower area made it easy to fit a portable mini tub for an infant that we brought. Another bonus for us was the flat access allowing baby pram access right to the door. Not all apartments would offer towels, soap/shampoos so this was yet an other nice touch. Quiet. Would stay again when next in Canberra.
I was VERY close to the bus stop from and to the airport.
I was close to shops (to buy food) and the War Memorial & Lake Burley Griffin (the reasons for my visit to Canberra).
The room had everything I needed, including coffee and extra toiletries. Also the heating made it extremely comfortable on the cold nights.
I could leave my case safely at the hotel before and after check-in & check-out times.
The staff were friendly, courteous and helpful.
3 bedroom apartment suitable for our needs. Family of 3 adults, 2 children and 1 infant. Location excellent with lots of good eating places and shops within walking distance. Also easy walk to lake & parliamentary circle attractions.
Appreciative that the bed configuration was set-up as per request, and non-standard.
TVs in 2 of the bedrooms appreciated although they were cheap and the sound very poor.
Had a great stay at Meriton suites Canberra, The room (one bedroom apartment) was clean and spacious with everything you need in a apartment, The amenities were excellent with a decent gym and a large pool, Jacuzzi and sauna, The staff were very friendly and the location of the property was perfect with such a short walk to Civic mall and restaurants. Will definitely book here again in the future.
We did not have breakfast at the location, but the facilities around the hotel were nice. The room was comfy, the amenities were free which was a big plus, and the location in Canberra is great with the underground parking. The reception waived our underground fee as well, which was really nice and a nice parting gift from the hotel. I'd recommend this place in Canberra for sure.
We did a lot of research before booking East Hotel and we were very happy with our decision. The hotel is in a great location with an easy walk to cafes in 2 directions.
Best part was the free bikes which we took out for the day to explore Canberra.
We really enjoyed our meal at the welcoming pub across the road.
We would happily return.
The atmosphere was great with a real feel of traditional hotel. The staff were friendly and helpful. Ashleigh was so lovely to deal with and booked us in a suitable room.
The location is fantastic for visiting Parliament house and museums.
We will certainly stay here again if we were to visit Canberra in the future.
I absolutely loved this hotel. The staff are very professional and friendly, and the decor of the hotel is incredible! The room we stayed in was beautiful, bathroom was amazing and the bed was a dream to sleep in. Great location to the main part of Canberra as well.
I loved the heritage look of the hotel with a modern twist as you walk up to the automatic French doors! The room was super cosy, the bed was comfy, staff extremely friendly and accomodating. I will definitely stay here again for any future visits to Canberra!!
The room exceeded our expectations. The Lux decor, modern clever design, very comfortable bed. The bathroom and room is exceptionally spacious. I have already recommended this to friends and family. This is my preferred hotel from now on.
The hotel is located near the shops and service station (Coles Shell). The bed is comfy and the room is clean. Loved the restaurant/ pub downstairs. Good value for money. Would stay here again next time we visit Canberra.
For the price, this was great accommodation. Staff were very polite, room was very clean and comfy. I would definitely recommend to others and book at Ibis Canberra again
