Knightsbridge Canberra
By the Top3Hotels editorial team. Based on Booking.com guest scores and reviews, location data and reference prices. We did not stay at this hotel. Updated 2026-10-24.
Yes, this is the strongest all-round booking in our Canberra sample: the top guest score among 11 hotels, a pool, a gym and free parking at exactly the median price. Skip it if you want to walk to the National Museum or the War Memorial, which are far on foot.

Knightsbridge Canberra is our Best Value pick. It is a 4-star property listing a gym, pool, free parking, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, a garden and a terrace.
It suits drivers, since parking is listed as free, and travellers who like to eat out on foot. Guests say Kingston shops, cafes, restaurants and local galleries are within walking distance.
It is a weaker fit if your plan is to walk between the big national institutions. Two of the three nearby sights in our data are over 40 minutes away on foot. Breakfast is also not listed, so do not count on it.
Location and getting around
The address is 3 Leichhardt Street, and guests rate the location 9.6 out of 10.
The National Gallery of Australia is about 1.9 km away, roughly 24 minutes on foot. The National Museum of Australia is about 3.2 km, around 40 minutes, and the Australian War Memorial is about 4.2 km, around 53 minutes. Those two are far, so plan on public transport, a taxi or your own car.
These times are straight-line estimates and have not been verified.
