The location is unbeatable—just a short walk from the city center, shopping spots, and Central Station, making it perfect for both business and leisure travelers. My studio room was spotless and cozy, with a lovely balcony that offered a quiet retreat to enjoy morning coffee. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything I needed, and the bathroom was clean and well-maintained. The staff were incredibly friendly and made check-in smooth and stress-free. Everything about this place felt thoughtfully designed for comfort and convenience. If you're looking for a reliable, centrally located apartment-style stay in Perth, this is definitely a top pick.

Wheeler Apartments Perth

Staying at Wheeler Apartments Perth was a fantastic experience overall. One of the biggest positives? No hidden fees—everything is transparent and upfront, which I really appreciate. The staff member (a young guy) was not only handsome but also incredibly helpful and attentive, running around to assist with everything. He even offered to lend me a charging cable—a small touch, but very thoughtful. There were complimentary bottled waters in the room, which was a nice surprise. The bedroom didn’t have air conditioning, but the living area had strong cooling, so it wasn’t an issue. Just a heads-up: there’s no mobile key access—guests need to bring a local bank card for check-in. A refundable deposit of AUD 300 is required, which will be returned within five business days after checkout. Location is great, clean, well-maintained, and the value for money is excellent. Definitely a place I’d recommend and return to.

Perth City Apartment Hotel

This place absolutely exceeded my expectations! Right next to the metro station, making it super easy to explore Perth’s city center. The apartment was clean, well-maintained, and had everything I needed — from a comfy bed to modern appliances. I especially appreciated how quiet the air conditioning was; it barely made a sound. The staff, Eddie and Anthony, were incredibly friendly and helpful — they went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. It felt more like staying at a friend’s place than a hotel. With such great value and a fantastic location, I’ll definitely be coming back. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Perth!

Billabong Backpackers Resort

The location of Billabong Backpackers Resort is fantastic—just a 20-minute downhill walk from East Perth Station, which offers direct access to the airport. It’s also super convenient with a Woolies supermarket and a BWS liquor store right nearby. Every morning, they provide fresh bread for toast or PB&J, plus cereal and milk—perfect for a quick breakfast without leaving the hostel. The private room was spacious, well-equipped with a kettle, mugs, and complimentary tea and coffee supplies. There’s a $10 refundable deposit for dining sets, which is fair considering the quality. One small downside: Wi-Fi is only available in common areas, so no internet in the room. But the staff more than make up for it—they’re friendly, helpful, and gave us great recommendations. We followed their advice to book a ferry to Rottnest Island to see the quokkas, and they even arranged pickup and drop-off, making the whole experience seamless. The kitchen is huge and well-stocked, so preparing your own meals is easy and enjoyable. Overall, this place offers excellent value, a welcoming vibe, and a great base for exploring Perth.

Attika Hotel

The Attika Hotel offers an excellent location—just a short, easy walk to the office, which is perfect for business travelers. The room was comfortable, clean, and quiet, making it ideal for a restful stay. One small suggestion: the TV in the bedroom is positioned a bit too high, causing neck strain during extended viewing. Adjusting the mount slightly would make it much more user-friendly. Overall, the hotel delivers great value and a pleasant experience—definitely a place I’d consider returning to.

Ozi Inn Backpackers - Perth -Valid International Passport Required

Staying at Ozi Inn Backpackers in Perth was an absolute highlight of our trip. Though it's housed in an older building, the place is immaculately clean and well-maintained. What really stood out was the monthly free BBQs—perfect for meeting fellow travelers and soaking up the local vibe. It’s great to see that many of the backpackers working here are also guests, creating a friendly, community-like atmosphere. The management is clearly committed to continuous improvements—every room is being freshly painted, new curtains and cupboards are being installed, and the place feels like it’s evolving with every visit. Our new manager was incredibly welcoming and helpful, making us feel right at home. Overall, this was more than just a place to sleep—it was a memorable experience full of great people, good energy, and genuine hospitality. We’d absolutely stay here again without hesitation.

Northlodge Central City Apartments

I absolutely loved my stay here — it’s a fantastic value for the price. The room is spacious and well-equipped with a sink, microwave, and fridge, making it super convenient for self-catering. The ensuite bathroom was spotless, and fresh towels were provided — no need to worry about anything. The bed was incredibly comfortable, perfect for a good night’s sleep. Location-wise, it’s unbeatable: just a short walk to Northbridge and the Perth CBD (under 20 minutes), right on a main road opposite McDonald’s — great for late-night snacks or morning coffee. The owners are genuinely warm and welcoming; they’re always happy to chat if you happen to pass by their office. Whether you're here for a quick weekend getaway or a longer stay, this place hits all the right notes. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be back!

Beatty Lodge

We reached out to Beatty Lodge for a four-day stay and left our contact number as suggested, since the staff mentioned they were busy with guests and would call us back. Unfortunately, we never received a single reply despite sending five messages. Even a brief call letting us know there were no available rooms would have been appreciated. We were originally planning to stay for two weeks, but due to the lack of communication, we had to find alternative accommodation at the last minute. This experience was extremely frustrating and has completely deterred us from booking here again. Poor follow-up and unprofessional service make it hard to recommend.

Highly recommend this property to anyone looking for comfort, convenience, and a stress-free experience.
