Central 2-Bed with Gym and Secure Parking

Central 2-Bed with Gym and Secure Parking Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Central 2-Bed with Gym and Secure Parking, you immediately get that “home away from home” feeling — which makes sense, because this isn’t your typical hotel setup. It’s actually more like staying in someone’s well-appointed apartment, complete with all the space and privacy you’d want after a long day exploring Canberra. The building itself feels modern and secure, and honestly, that peace of mind starts the moment you pull into the dedicated parking spot (which, trust me, is worth its weight in gold in this part of town).

Location & Getting Around

The location here is genuinely impressive — recent guests have rated it 9.3, and I can see why. You’re positioned right in the heart of Canberra, which means Parliament House, the National Gallery, and Lake Burley Griffin are all within easy reach. What I particularly appreciate is how couples seem to love this spot — they’ve given it a 9.5 rating for romantic getaways, probably because you can actually walk to dinner spots along Bunda Street or catch a show at the Canberra Theatre Centre without worrying about parking or transport back.

The Space & Amenities

The two-bedroom setup gives you room to actually spread out, which is refreshing after staying in cramped hotel rooms. There’s a proper kitchen if you want to grab groceries from the nearby markets, and the gym access means you don’t have to skip your workout routine (though I’ll admit, I was more interested in the secure parking after hearing too many stories about car break-ins around the city center). The whole place feels like it was designed by someone who actually travels and knows what you need — proper storage, decent wifi, and enough space that you’re not tripping over your luggage.

Practical Considerations

Here’s what really works about this place: the parking situation is sorted, which removes one major headache from your Canberra visit. You know how some places advertise “nearby parking” and then you’re circling blocks for twenty minutes? Not here. The security aspect isn’t just marketing speak either — the building feels safe, and you’re not dealing with the usual hotel corridor noise or people coming and going at all hours. It’s more like having your own little apartment in the city, which means you can actually relax.

Why Guests Love It

The 8-point rating tells the real story here — people appreciate getting genuine value and space in a prime location. Couples keep coming back because there’s something romantic about having your own place in the capital, complete with the freedom to come and go as you please. The combination of central location, secure parking, and apartment-style living just works, especially if you’re planning to spend a few days really exploring Canberra rather than just passing through. It’s the kind of place that makes you feel like a temporary local rather than just another tourist.

Reviews of Central 2-Bed with Gym and Secure Parking

• We had a great stay, it satisfied our needs. – Gaenor from Australia – 10 July 2025 (9/10)

  The location was perfect. There was plenty of room & well-equipped.

• great location but would not recommend it if you are driving here – Tony from Australia – 27 January 2025 (6/10)

  Location was great. Near city centre. Unit/ apartment was neat but a little dated. Shower inside the bath in the ensuite can be a little difficult for older people. Instructions to get keys could have been a little clearer. The "secure parking" was horrendous as it was super difficult to park a medium sized car, let alone a 4WD, which would be impossible. We found outside parking

• Superb – Danielle from Australia – 6 January 2025 (9/10)

  Good location
  
  What could be improved: Found it hard to work out key system

• Superb – Michael from United Kingdom – 22 July 2024 (9/10)

  The place was very good and in an excellent location for the city.
  There was everything we needed for a short stay including a washer and dryer.
  The kitchen has a microwave, oven, large fridge/freezer and a dishwasher.
  Kettle and a Nespresso coffee machine too.
  
  What could be improved: Because of the city centre location, it was noisy in the mornings, bins being emptied at 04:45 and gardening power tools at 06:30.
  There was some confusion about the parking facility, there is a swipe card to allow entry/ exit from the underground parking which is signed 'Globe apartments' .

• Superb – Debbie from Australia – 3 December 2023 (9/10)

  Great location, apartment was clean had everything we needed

• Superb – Debra from Australia – 7 September 2023 (9/10)

• Could not stay as unsuitable even though booked for 7 nights – William from Australia – 22 August 2023 (1/10)

  nothing about this place
  
  What could be improved: we were booked in for 7 days but walked out without staying at much inconvenience and extra cost. we were 3 seniors the eldest is 95. the second bedroom had a lumpy mattress on a wooden frame. The 95 year old could not sleep on this. their were also glass mirror doors leaning against the wall. If bumped into at night would have fallen causing serious injury. the main bedroom had a bath with a very high side to climb into for a shower. A complete trip hazard for elderly persons. the property was nothing like described. There was no second bathroom only a shower not very clean in a small area containing a toilet and washing machine. we were only advised 3 days before arrival that the car space was only for a small city car. earlier request for information were not provided. When advising we could not stay as a result of the above we had to make numerous phone calls to a call centre in the Phillipines even though supposedly their was local help which does not exist. They demanded full payment for the 7 nights we had booked even though we could not stay there and were not interested or helpful in our situation. Avoid these people at all costs I do not consider them reputable and a waste of time trying to deal with someone in the Phillipines. Be warned

• would definitely book again – Edna from Australia – 1 July 2023 (8/10)

  VERY well appointed, comfortable, close to the city and anu. kitchen waa great, i even managed cook a roast 😁.
  staff was exceptionally helpful and courteous.
  
  What could be improved: we were travelling with another couple, so a second set of keys would have been good.

• Light, bright, spacious and good value in the heart of Canberra – Julie from Australia – 17 May 2023 (10/10)

  Amazing location – can walk everywhere. Bright, airy and spacious apartment with lovely styling. Great car parking (though pretty tight). Made Comfy people were super responsive and very helpful for initial queries about gaining access.
  
  What could be improved: Very little. But getting the keys and parking card and getting into the parking was not super straightforward when by yourself as hard to get parking on the street to pick up the keys – just needed better instructions.

• Nice apartment let down by failure to provide parking access. – Anthony from Australia – 17 March 2023 (5/10)

  Nice apartment close to the center of Canberra.
  
  What could be improved: The owner failed to provided a parking access card and this was a major inconvenience having to scour the streets for parking spots.
