New to VRBO: City apartment with Mountain views - NISHI
Professionally managed by Canbnb.
Introducing this environmentally 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.
BEDROOM: This studio-type apartment has a queen-sized bed topped with fresh linen that is professionally cleaned and pressed for your stay. There is ample wardrobe space for your luggage, including hangers for your clothing (cupboard on both sides of the bed at the front entryway). There is also a ceiling fan provided for your convenience.
Please be mindful of the use of appliances. As much as possible, do not use appliances all at the same as it will cause the power to trip and possible error in usage. :)

KITCHEN: The kitchen is equipped with: - fridge/freezer - gas stovetop - oven - microwave - dishwasher - plates, mugs, glasses, and utensils - cooking pots and pans - basic cooking and cleaning items, including salt and pepper, olive oil and dishwashing powder

I am available mostly through Airbnb messaging but I give privacy to my guests. If there is an urgent issue, you can always call me.
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.
