Extremely impressed with a young waitress in your restaurant Her name was Mercedes and she was so helpful with local spots to visit - away from mainstream tourist places, she suggested a few places. So friendly, engaging and proved to be most helpful. The cafe/ restaurant was well run with great staff and that was an extremely pleasant part of our stay. Loved the gas fire with glass surround in your main entrance area. Sat and enjoyed wine after dinner a few nights, as we do love a fireplace ambience.

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.
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. 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?

for a capital of a country it is very small, very quiet and strangely clean and planned, not organically grown at all
pleasant to walk around, feels really safe, lots of museums and galleries
lots of birds and even a kangaroo hopped across the road at night
Excellent value for money. Surprisingly large and well appointed one bedroom apartment - we were expecting a hotel room but this was almost bigger than our apartment at home. Our stay was only a night but this would be a great longer term option, kitchenette even had an induction stove top. Clean. Comfy bed. Nice amenities in kitchen and shower. Modern fittings, smart lighting, good aircon, TVs in lounge area AND in bedroom. Compares very favourably to other places in Canberra at same price point.
I really like this hotel, quite even it is in the city center. It's close to canberra center (mall) and lot of restaurants around and bar. Walkable to Alinga tram station, CMAG and other tourist spot can be visited by bus, there's bus station in front of this hotel. The room is so clean, and the mini kitchen is equipped with things you need to cook if you're on a budget. Also, we came so early around 11am and they let us checked in without additional cost. Thank you!
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.
Sundown Villas were located close to our family and therefore very convenient. The villa was very well priced. We didn't need to use the cooking facilities, but they are quite limited. Electric blanket was greatly appreciated in the middle of winter in Canberra, as were the heaters. The unit had been freshly painted and was clean and bright.
I've stayed here at least five times and this latest visit matched up to all my previous visits. It's a cosy, exceptionally well run small hotel. Staff friendly, very professional and the hotel is near most of Canberra's best attractions. I also love the two common rooms. They are comfortable, well appointed, light and have lovely views.
The location of the hotel was excellent. Close to shops and transport.
The restaurant / dining area was so convenient. The meals and service were very satisfactory.
The room was quite spacious and housekeeping was excellent.
It was a very pleasant stay. I would happily come back for any future visits to Canberra.
Perfect place to visit Canberra. Tramstation is only a few Meters from the hotel and it's only 4 Stops from there to the City Centre. The staff was always very friendly, the rooms were clean and well equipped. We did not miss a single thing. We would come back to stay here, no question.
Third stay with the Statesman Hotel. The room was clean and very comfortable for our stay. Towels were changed on the second day. Very reasonable price for a Canberra hotel stay. Cheaper on Booking.com than via the hotel's website?
Location was great and hotel was clean. Service staff were great and the rooftop bar was very nice. Unfortunately the rooftop bar closed after 6pm due to a private event but we will definitely go back next time we are in Canberra
Comfortable, clean hotel in a good location (although, in Canberra you do have to drive to most main attractions). Friendly, helpful, efficient staff. Easy book in and check out. Excellent free in-house movies.
Village Hostels Canberra was a blast! From the cozy rooms to the friendly atmosphere, it was a perfect stay. The staff, especially Jessica at the reception, was fantastic. Can't wait to come back 😊
Full buffet breakfast being included in the price. The hotel bathrooms were very modern and great lighting. Overall a very lovely stay. Would recommend to others if visiting Canberra.
It's such good value for money. I stay here everytime I'm in Canberra. The staff are always so good. The staff go far and beyond what you'd normal expect from a super cheap hotel.
