Bruce Hall was the first residential Hall to be built at ANU. Founded in
1961, it was named after Stanley Melbourne Bruce who was Prime Minister of
Australia from 1923 to 1929.

Bruce Hall provides 240 catered rooms and 78 self-catered rooms (Packard
Wing) each with a single bed, wardrobe, desk, chair and washbasin. The rooms are
centrally heated and carpeted and are the largest rooms available on the ANU
campus. Toilet and shower facilities are located on each floor and are shared by
male and female residents (catered residents only).

A University
parking
permit must be purchased before you are issued with a Resident parking
permit which will allow you to park in Bruce Hall designated areas. Canberra's
network of bike paths and public transport is quite good, so we encourage
residents to save money and not bring a car.

Residents rooms are cleaned once a week (catered rooms only) by the Hall's
housekeeping staff. Communal bathrooms are cleaned daily. Vacuum cleaners may be
borrowed from the Hall if necessary. Bruce Hall has regular room inspections in
the self-catered wing (Packard)
