Pet-Friendly: Abode Hotels makes travelling with pets easy

“Abode Kingston strikes me as a solid choice for exploring Canberra's cultural side, especially if you're traveling with a pet. The apartment-style setup, with its kitchenette, is a real plus for longer stays, and the location puts you within easy reach of both urban parks and some acclaimed dining spots. While some past guests have noted maintenance hiccups, the overall vibe I get is one of comfortable, convenient access to the city's attractions.”
