The location was absolutely perfect—just a short walk from the city center and easily accessible via the free CAT bus. The staff went above and beyond with their kindness and friendliness, making our stay feel welcoming from day one. While the hotel does show a bit of age in its design, it’s well-maintained, spotlessly clean, and incredibly comfortable. The kitchenette was a real bonus—great for preparing meals, especially if you're traveling on a budget or want to enjoy a home-cooked bite. Overall, this place offers excellent value and a stress-free experience in a prime area.
Staying at The Pensione Hotel Perth was an absolute delight! Despite the affordable rates, the service felt truly five-star—clean rooms every single day with attention to detail, and powerful hair dryers that made morning routines a breeze. The location is unbeatable: just a 10-minute walk to Perth Station, 5 minutes to Woolworths, and only 2 minutes to Chemist Warehouse—perfect for grabbing essentials on the go. I really appreciated the little thoughtful touches like the welcome card and chocolate waiting for me in the room—such a nice personal touch. This place is ideal for solo travelers looking for comfort and convenience. That said, the room is a bit tight for two guests, and there’s only one power outlet, so if you're traveling with a partner or have multiple devices, bring an extension cord. Overall, it was a fantastic stay—great value, great vibe, and highly recommended!
Staying at Great Eastern Motor Lodge in Perth for two nights was a great experience overall. The atmosphere felt relaxed and perfect for travelers looking to unwind after exploring the city. The location is ideal—just a short distance from both the airport and downtown, with a bus stop right outside the front door, making local travel super convenient. What stood out most was the free airport shuttle service; it made my departure stress-free and efficient. I also really enjoyed the saltwater pool—clean, well-maintained, and peaceful, offering a nice way to relax after a long day of sightseeing.

Staying at Quality Hotel Bayswater was a delightful surprise. The hotel is just a short walk from Bayswater Metro Station, making it super convenient for getting around Perth—especially if you're arriving from the airport. The on-site restaurant is a real gem: in the evenings, they screen live rugby matches, which draws in quite a crowd and creates a lively, welcoming atmosphere. I tried the Thursday special pork rib meal—it was generous, delicious, and an absolute steal. There’s also a kids’ menu with options that even picky eaters would enjoy. Perfect for families or solo travelers looking for comfort and value. It made for an excellent first stop after landing, and I’d definitely come back again.
Staying just steps away from Kings Park was a major highlight—this motel offers unbeatable convenience with easy parking and a peaceful, residential neighborhood setting. The quiet surroundings make it perfect for a restful night’s sleep, yet it’s still close enough to the city center that you can easily explore Perth’s attractions without spending too much time commuting. It's also a short drive to the airport, making it ideal for both business and leisure travelers. I appreciated how well-located this place is—offering comfort, tranquility, and accessibility all in one. For a reliable, stress-free base in Perth, this is definitely a top choice.
Windsor Lodge is an absolute gem in Perth! The rooms are quiet and well-appointed, making it perfect for a peaceful stay. The staff couldn’t be more welcoming or helpful—always smiling and ready to assist. Location-wise, it’s just a short 20-minute drive to Kings Park, which is ideal if you’re planning to explore the city’s green spaces.

Staying at Nightcap at Belgian Beer Cafe in Perth was such a unique and memorable experience. The location is fantastic—just a 10-minute walk to iconic spots like London Street and the Swan Tower, making it super convenient for exploring the city center. Housed in a historic building, there’s no elevator, but that only adds to the charm. Check-in at the front desk felt special, almost like stepping into a vintage pub—great atmosphere and attention to detail. The room was spotless, with a fridge stocked with complimentary milk and bottled water—small touches that made a big difference. Check-out was effortless: just drop your key card into the box on the first floor. Security is tight—access to the building requires a password, which is clearly written on your key card. Breakfast was an unexpected highlight. It’s served at a charming old building next door, not buffet-style, but à la carte. Since my room included breakfast, I was told the budget limit was $15 per person. Beyond that, you’d pay extra. Honestly, the options were limited—just two choices under $15: two slices of toast for $8, or two fried eggs with two slices of toast for $15. While not much variety, everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. It’s definitely not fancy, but it’s authentic, local, and surprisingly satisfying. A great way to start the day.
Staying at this property was a great experience overall, especially with its convenient location near restaurants and local shops. However, one thing to note is that the hotel only offers five parking spots, so if you plan to drive, booking in advance is essential. The spaces are quite small, which might be challenging for drivers who aren’t confident behind the wheel—just like me! We ended up parking at the nearby Willson Parking, which we could easily check via the app for pricing and availability. It’s just a short walk from the hotel, making it a practical alternative. With some planning, this minor inconvenience doesn’t take away from the excellent value and comfort this place offers.
I've stayed at Metro Hotel Perth City a few times now, and the service continues to impress—no deposit required this time around, which was a nice touch.

I'm already planning my next visit and will definitely be returning more often. A great spot for both business and leisure travelers.
Staying at Malibu Apartments in Perth was a delightful experience overall. The location is quiet and peaceful, yet super convenient—just a short walk to the free shuttle bus that connects directly to Perth's central bus station. The housekeeping staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with anything we needed. The beds were comfortable and made for a restful night’s sleep. One small suggestion: a few extra kitchen towels would be nice, and it would be great if hair dryers were provided in the rooms. But honestly, these are minor points. The apartment was clean, well-maintained, and offered excellent value for money. We truly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it to others looking for a cozy, hassle-free base in Perth.
Staying at Econo Lodge Rivervale was a great experience overall. While it's a bit outside the city center and definitely requires a car for convenient access, the location offers a peaceful retreat with easy parking and a quiet atmosphere. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well-maintained—perfect for a relaxing getaway. The staff were friendly and helpful during check-in, and the property felt safe and well-kept. Even though it’s not walkable to major attractions, having a car makes it super convenient for exploring Perth and surrounding areas.
