Must See

Canberra's iconic Parliament House is 3km from Crowne Plaza Canberra. Join a guided tour, book a seat in the Senate gallery to hear the best of Question Time, or take in the art collection, highlighted by Tom Boyd's forest-inspired Great Hall Tapestry.

What's New

The National Gallery is custodian of the world's largest and most outstanding collection of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander art. It is located a short 10 minutes from the hotel via Parkes Way.

Tips

Try wine tasting at Brindabella Hills or become a connoisseur of prize-winning Rieslings and Cabernets at Helm Wines. Jeir Creek’s cool-climate wines remain a hot commodity for visitors. The cellar door offers tastings and sample plates of Indian food, a nod to the family’s Varanasi heritage. Highly recommended is a tasting of Jeir Creek’s museum wines.

Must Do

Journey into the world of science at Questacon, Canberra's National Science and Technology Centre, 2km from the hotel. Engaging exhibitions and theatrical demonstrations unravel our understanding of such things as balloons, explosions and tsunami.

Don't Go Home Without

Asking our Concierge about wine tasting tours. Fields of vine blanket the ridges above the Murrumbidgee River, 25km away. Pause for tapas and wine tasting at Brindabella Hills or become a connoisseur of prize-winning Rieslings and Cabernets at Helm Wines.
