The area is a hub for some of the city’s most loved dining spots including The Cupping Room (famous for its coffee and brunch), Akiba (modern Asian fusion with a lively vibe), and the stylish wine bar Rebel Rebel in nearby NewActon. Whether you’re after breakfast, cocktails, or a long dinner, everything is within easy reach.

Enjoy nature and iconic landmarks close by—Lake Burley Griffin is about a 10–15 minute walk, perfect for morning runs or sunset strolls. Commonwealth Park, home of Floriade, is also nearby. Major cultural attractions such as the National Gallery, National Museum, and Parliament House are only a short drive away.

This central location makes exploring Canberra effortless—walk, cycle, or catch public transport right outside your door. It’s a convenient, connected, and vibrant base for both work and leisure.

Staying at Allara Street means everything is close and easy. Most of Civic’s cafés, restaurants, bars, and shops are within walking distance. Canberra Centre is just a short stroll away, and Lake Burley Griffin is around 10–15 minutes on foot for scenic walks or bike rides.

Public transport is convenient, with buses and the Light Rail accessible from nearby Northbourne Avenue. Rideshare pick-ups are quick, and taxis are readily available at the city rank.
