The grassy rise of Capital Hill is Canberra’s crowning feature. The perfectly circular hilltop locale is the core from which the rest of the city radiates.

Its grand boundary road encloses Canberra’s primary piece of architecture: Parliament House. Inside, Australia’s politicians discuss the daily debate. Take a walk around Capital Hill’s tree-lined lawns and experience the different faces of this intricately designed city. To the west, a little patch of remnant bushland provides a peephole into the past.

Have stayed here before so happy to stay here again. Some fittings in the bathroom fell off - such as taps, toilet roll holder part etc - and we had to put them back on, but besides that, we were happy with our stay there. Well-equipped apartment in nice location. Coles not too far away. (Walking ...
