Hotels

Canberra has a good scattering of places to stay, and generally accommodations are much cheaper than in most other state capitals. Many people travel to Canberra during the week, so many hotels offer cheaper weekend rates. You should always ask about special deals. The rates given below are rack rates, or what the hotels hope they'll get on a good day -- you can often get a room for less, especially booking directly through the hotel's website. The Canberra Visitors' Centre (tel. 02/6205 0044) can provide information about other accommodations options.
