Hotel Kurrajong Canberra

Few hotels capture the grace and character of old Canberra in the way historic Hotel Kurrajong does. Once home several former Prime Ministers of Australia – owing to its proximity to Parliament House – this 1920s-era art deco building is elegant, charming and well positioned.
