Abode Murrumbateman

Everything is brand new! Bed and pillows were really comfy. Lots of guests stay with their dogs (so cute, we patted so many!) yet you won’t get notice doggy smell anywhere, which we loved. We made good use of the free bike hire and rode to the local pub for dinner and a drink. Do try it - great local pub, cheap meals. When we came back we enjoyed a local bottle of wine purchased from Abode’s “pantry” by the fireplace in the communal area at the lobby. It was a great stay and we’d love to return! Complimentary toiletries were nice quality. The staff are wonderful too. A nice young man helped me work out how to get Netflix on the TV. Upon asking for a late checkout the next morning the lovely lady at the counter said I had a 12pm check out as I’d booked the “winter package” which I didn’t realise - icing on the cake!

The Abode Murrumbaten has friendly helpful staff who checked winery opening times and provided a voucher for one winery. The facility is modern with a relaxing lounge area with a fireplace near reception and parking outside the facility. There is a pantry where guests can purchase breakfast items and also local wine for dinner. There is a kitchen where guests can prepare and cook their meals and a dining room where guests can eat their meal and mingle with other guests. The room I stayed in looked out on fields and was very quiet, despite the facility's proximity to the Barton Highway

Murrumbateman is always forgotten as a great location, close to Canberra. As long as it’s okay not being within walking distance to restaurants etc, it should be highly considered, away from the busy traffic. Staff were so friendly and made me feel very welcome which was great after my long drive to Canberra. On arrival, I also got a $10 voucher to the Abode Pantry which allows you to purchase different items from wine to continental breakfast items (like microwaveable rolled oats, cereal) which is what I conveniently did for breakfast. Overall, I would definitely stay again. The room was comfortable and I could go to Canberra and avoid the peak hour traffic of Northbourne in the centre of Canberra.

clean, modern and very comfortable. the rooms are a great size, we stayed in a dog friendly room and it was lovely. I’ve stayed in a few dog friendly hotel/motel rooms and this one was of high standard!

Super comfortable and modern hotel with plenty of parking. We stayed two separate nights on the way to and out of Canberra. Just a short 30 min drive from central Canberra. Extremely comfortable and quiet rooms. Will definitely stay again.
