Discover this eco-friendly studio in New Acton's 'Nishi' building. Enjoy comfort and style with views of Black Mountain and Telstra Tower. Located near a cinema, art galleries, top cafés, nightlife, and walking distance from ANU and Parliament House.
You have exclusive access to the apartment during your stay. There is a key lockbox for self check-in and check-out, and your own dedicated underground car park is adjacent to lifts, which take you to the 4th floor where the apartment is located.
The Nishi Building has an energy efficiency rating of 8, with a solar passive design, cross ventilation and thermal mass insulation. These features keep the apartment cool in summer without the need for unnatural air conditioning! Even the apartment’s heating is rarely needed, except on those particularly chilly Canberra winter nights.

I have been living in Canberra for quite some time now and can help you navigate your way around the local area if you need. I can also provide you with any tips on the best places to go for food or just to have fun!
The Nishi building has so much to offer. The Makeshift cafe downstairs is not only cool and quirky but has some of the best coffee around. Monster Kitchen and Bar has incredible food for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Be sure to book, it’s very popular.
Parlour Bar is a cosy dining alternative only one minute's walk away. Located in the historic heritage-listed building that was once Hotel Acton, Parlour offers lunch, dinner, snacks and amazing cocktails, wines and beers. You can dine in or take pre-prepared meals (with wine or beer) back to the apartment to enjoy the amazing lake views.
The Palace Electric Cinema is just downstairs and has everything you need for your movie watching experience.
Tourist attractions nearby include Questacon, the National Museum, the National Library and Floriade (September to October) which are all within walking distance.
Any violation of our no-party rule will result in a $2000 non-negotiable penalty, in addition to any damages.
1. Please let us know if you need to check in early or leave later than the standard check-in/out times. We need to collect $50 for every hour, or increment thereof, of delayed check out.
2. I have a STRICT "No Pets Policy" and "No Smoking Policy". These are applicable inside and outside of the property. Any breach will result to a fine of $400 plus any additional fees for specialised cleaning.
3. The cleaning fee covers the regular cleaning and linens in the property. As this is not a hotel, please try to leave the place as tidy as possible. If the property is extra messy when you leave, an extra cleaning fee will be requested (minimum of $50).
4. Please be sure you understand our cancellation policies. You can find our current policy on our Airbnb listing.
5. Only those persons who made the reservation may stay in our property. If you're a business or government agency booking for other people, please contact us in advance to ensure access details are made clear.
6. No parties or gatherings of more than the maximum number of people that can book the property. Any non-guests must leave by 10:00 pm. And there should strictly be no loud noise after 10:00 pm. There is a $2000 penalty if this house rule is breached.
7. There are some items in the kitchen (tea, coffee, sugar, milk) which you are welcome to use. Also, the pantry has a few basics (i.e. muesli). We don't stock the refrigerator or provide any meals.
8. I list my property as not suitable for kids or infants as it is not child-proofed and we don't have baby amenities (i.e. high chair, cot). However, if the kids will be under adult supervision at all times, booking with children is no problem.
