The 184-key Hilton Canberra Manuka will open opposite Manuka Oval at 15-17 Franklin St in early 2027.
The hotel will include a ballroom and another flexible event space that can be split into four separate rooms.
Hilton Canberra Manuka will also have an executive lounge, an all-day restaurant and bar, a fitness centre, sauna and pool.
Amongst the room inventory, there will be eight suites, while standard rooms will be on the larger side, ranging from 32m2 to 45m2.
“The signing of Hilton Canberra Manuka represents an important milestone in Hilton’s growth across Australasia and brings our flagship brand to Australia’s national capital,” said Hilton Australasia’s director of development, Tushar Raniga.
“With its location in one of Canberra’s most established precincts and proximity to key government, diplomatic, corporate and leisure demand drivers, the hotel is well positioned to welcome guests travelling for a wide range of occasions.
“We are pleased to begin a new relationship with ICC Development Group and look forward to bringing Hilton’s signature hospitality to Canberra.”
ICC Development Group CEO, Harrold Dakin, said the project was “a significant milestone” for the company.
“This project reflects our broader ambition to build an international hospitality portfolio that brings together well-position properties, global hotel brands and experienced operating partners,” said Dakin.
“Our partnership with Hilton is an important step towards that vision, combining the brand’s hospitality expertise with a distinctive sense of place and exceptional guest service.”
The hotel is well located for events at Parliament House but somewhat further from the National Convention Centre Canberra.
