What do I need to know about staying in Canberra

Canberra, Australia's capital, is known for its impressive national institutions and thriving cultural scenes, offering business travellers a sophisticated yet relaxed base for their stay.

Transport in Canberra

Unlike Australia's larger cities such as Sydney, Melbourne, and Perth, Canberra moves at a more relaxed pace. The capital's compact layout means most destinations are just ten minutes away, with minimal traffic and excellent connectivity, making it easy to navigate efficiently.

Canberra Airport is conveniently located just 8 kilometres from the city centre, making it one of Australia's most accessible capital city airports. The journey to the central business district takes approximately 10-15 minutes by car, ensuring you can reach your serviced apartment quickly after landing.

Once in Canberra, Cycling is an ideal way to explore the city, particularly for those who enjoy staying active. Bikes can be hired from several stores across the city at around $20 per hour, and the extensive network of bike paths makes getting around both safe and scenic.

Public transport is also straightforward and convenient for visitors to use. The bus line 101 connects major attractions in the city centre, circling Braddon, such as the Canberra Theatre Centre, and the Canberra Centre shopping hub. Business travellers can also rely on ride-hailing platforms such as Uber or taxis in the city centre if travelling to locations directly.

Weather in Canberra

Canberra is characterised by a relatively dry climate with distinct seasons. Summers (December to February) are warm with temperatures averaging 27°C, while winters (June to August) can be crisp and cold, often dropping below freezing overnight with occasional light snowfall.

The city enjoys over 300 days of sunshine annually, though it's wise to pack layers regardless of the season, as temperatures can fluctuate significantly between day and night.

Things to do in Canberra

Beyond business, Canberra offers an impressive array of activities for downtime and weekends. As Australia's capital, the city is home to world-class cultural institutions, including the National Gallery of Australia, the Australian War Memorial, and the National Museum of Australia.

For a truly unique experience, the Canberra Balloon Spectacular, a free festival, allows visitors to escape the hustle and bustle of city life and float above the capital. Wine lovers will appreciate the region's exceptional cool-climate wineries, with Mt Majura Vineyard and Surveyors Hill Vineyard just a short drive from the central business district.

The Canberra Centre offers an extensive selection of speciality stores, and the Fyshwick Fresh Food Markets, Canberra's oldest markets, provide unparalleled quality and range in one location. In the centre of the city is the Craft ACT: Craft and Design Centre , featuring exhibitions from both local and international makers, where shoppers can support smaller, independent retailers.
