The Bedford at Braddon – 2BR with Free parking & Wifi Overview
Look, I’ll be straight with you about The Bedford at Braddon – 2BR with Free parking & Wifi – this isn’t your typical hotel experience, and honestly, that’s exactly what makes it work so well. When I first pulled up to this place in Braddon, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect from an apartment-style setup, but you know what? Sometimes the best discoveries happen when you’re not quite sure what you’re walking into.
The two-bedroom layout is actually brilliant if you’re traveling with family or friends who need some breathing room. I mean, there’s something to be said for having a proper kitchen where you can make coffee at 6 AM without trudging down to a lobby, and the living area gives everyone space to spread out after a day of exploring Canberra. The free parking thing might not sound like a big deal until you realize how much of a headache parking can be in other parts of the city – trust me on this one. And the WiFi actually works properly, which sounds basic but you’d be surprised how many places still struggle with that.
What really struck me about staying here is how it sits right in the heart of Braddon, which honestly has become one of the more interesting pockets of the city over the past few years. You’re walking distance from Lonsdale Street with all those cafes and restaurants that locals actually go to – not just the touristy spots. There’s this authentic neighborhood feel that you just don’t get when you’re stuck in some generic hotel district. The place has that comfortable, lived-in quality that makes you feel less like a tourist passing through and more like you’re actually staying somewhere that matters. I found myself genuinely relaxed here in a way that doesn’t always happen in traditional hotel rooms, probably because you’ve got actual space to move around and the freedom to do things on your own timeline. It’s the kind of place where you might end up staying an extra night just because you’re not quite ready to pack up and move on.
Hotel in Canberra booking should be done early, especially during sitting periods when the city hosts internationally significant parliamentary sessions and political events.

Very convenient and comfortable for a short stay
What could be improved: Lights outside were very bright all nightLovely stay and good value for money – Linda from Australia – 5 April 2025 (9/10)
Great location with cafes and restaurants a 5 min walk away and fairly quiet around the apartment block. The plumbing was a bit noisy but probably just due to age.
