The Blue and White Lodge

The Blue and White Lodge is a family-run bed and breakfast in Dickson, Canberra, positioned on Northbourne Avenue at the gateway to the city. The lodge and its sister property, Canberran Lodge, operate as one enterprise with 19 rooms, a shared reception area and a dining room.

The properties have undergone major refurbishment over the past decade, including new façades and rooms that open onto covered balconies. Some rooms offer views towards Black Mountain, while the overall setting is described as cosy and comfortable. A full cooked breakfast is available, adding a traditional bed-and-breakfast element to the stay.

With 42 years of experience in the accommodation industry, the family business places a clear emphasis on welcoming guests and providing a home-away-from-home experience. The location is around 3 kilometres from Canberra’s CBD and within walking distance of Dickson Shopping Centre, which has a range of restaurants offering international cuisine. It is also close to Canberra’s tourist attractions and sporting venues, making it a practical base for visitors exploring the city, attending events or looking for accommodation near Dickson’s dining options.
