Independent in Kingston from AU$105

The best area to stay in Kingston is the Kingston Foreshore for its modern amenities and waterside location.


The Kingston Foreshore is a contemporary development along Lake Burley Griffin. It's characterised by its sleek apartment buildings, a promenade lined with restaurants and cafes, and direct access to the lake. The area is particularly well-suited for those who appreciate modern convenience combined with scenic views.


Couples looking for a sophisticated and relaxed stay will find the Kingston Foreshore ideal. You can enjoy strolls along the lake, dine at a variety of high-quality restaurants, and easily access cultural institutions like the National Gallery of Australia and Parliament House, which are just a short drive or pleasant walk away. Many accommodations in this area offer balconies with lake views, great for enjoying a quiet evening.


For solo travellers, the Kingston Foreshore offers a comfortable and convenient base. The area is well-connected by public transport, making it easy to explore the wider city.

The best time to visit Kingston, Western Australia, is during the shoulder seasons of autumn (March to May) and spring (September to November).


During these months, you'll experience pleasant, mild weather with comfortable temperatures, making it ideal for exploring the region's attractions without the intense heat of summer or the cooler, wetter conditions of winter. You'll also find fewer crowds compared to the peak summer holidays, allowing for a more relaxed and enjoyable trip.


For those who enjoy outdoor activities like hiking, cycling, or visiting the local vineyards, spring is particularly appealing. The wildflowers are in bloom, adding a colourful backdrop to the landscape, and the days are generally sunny and calm.


Autumn also offers excellent conditions for exploring, with warm days and cooler evenings. This period is great for leisurely drives along the coast, enjoying al fresco dining, and experiencing the local produce markets. The ocean temperatures are also still comfortable for swimming.


While summer (December to February) can be popular, especially with families due to school holidays, it can also be very hot. Winter (June to August) brings cooler temperatures and more rain, which might limit some outdoor activities.
