Sweet stays in Perth to maximise your vacation
The end of the year is coming, and if you haven't started planning where to go: have you checked out these experiences in Perth? Perth in particular is a nice vacation spot for us in Singapore who have not travelled for a while, but wants to dip our toes and travel to a safe place with diverse experiences, great dining, a robust public transport system and great weather to boot!
If you need some recommendations for stays, here are some wonderful accommodations for all interests.
Pan Pacific Perth
The hotel of choice for the cabin crew of Singapore Airlines, Pan Pacific Perth is a quiet 5-star hotel located strategically within Perth City Centre, allowing you access and proximity to local attractions and sights. This high-quality property provides guests with access to large rooms, with a restaurant, fitness center and indoor pool on-site. It's not only affordable, but also provides access to a lot of conveniences such as minimarts, restaurants, bars, and close proximity to attractions.
Price range: From S$228 on Agoda
Best for: Business travellers or family who want a central location as a base for explorations and work
Address: 207 Adelaide Terrace, Perth City Centre, Perth, Australia, 6000
Nearby attractions: Bell Tower, Kings Park War Memorial, Elizabeth Quay (to take the cruises to other parts of Perth)
Crown Towers Perth
One of the fanciest and newest hotels you can find in Perth, Crown Towers Perth is a luxurious property with incredible pools. Pamper and indulge yourself with a visit to the massage, salon, steam room, spa and sauna. From entry-level rooms to the uppermost-echleons of suites and personal residences, this hotel is made to impress. We also had the chance to try the buffet dinner and for less than S$100, it had some of the best spread I've seen in a hotel buffet.
Price range: From S$516 on Agoda
Best for: Luxe, dark, bold and modern designs for those who love the finer things in life.
Address: Great Eastern Highway, Burswood, Perth, Australia, 6100
Nearby attractions: Optus Stadium, Matagarup Bridge, on-site casino.
Rendezvous Hotel Scarborough
Being the tallest hotel in the area of Scarborough has its perks. The quaint precinct of Scaborough is known for their beach, incredible surfs and beautiful sunsets. In fact, during the duration I was there, I saw plenty of locals just chilling by the beach, lending a wonderful laidback vibe to the area.
Neighbouring Trigg Beach is home to Perth's most consistent surf break, with local spots like Watermans Bay, Mettams Pool and Trigg Point also renowned for their surf. You can also explore many nature reserves and parks around the area.
Price range: From S$338 on Agoda
Best for: The best sunset view in Scarborough
Address: The Esplanade, Scarborough, Perth, Australia, 6019
Nearby attractions: Nature reserves, beaches and dance clubs
The Colony at Mandoon Estate
My favourite stay out of this list so far, The Colony is a beautifully appointed property with the river at its back, at an extremely attractive price point.
Price range: From S$162 on Agoda
Best for: A private, peaceful getaway in Swan Valley
Address: 10 Harris Road, Caversham Swan Valley, Western Australia, Perth Airport, Perth, Australia, 6055
Nearby attractions: Swan Valley's numerous produce, stores and quaint farm experiences.
Warders Hotel
Fun fact: when our guide told us to meet in this area, I was wondering about this run-down looking building. To my surprise, it's a hotel and once you get beyond the facade, you'll be treated to cosy, quaintly-designed rooms with close proximity to bar and restaurant Emily Taylors.
Warders Hotel is also located merely a 10-minute walk from Bathers Beach, and pretty much a short walk away from everything Fremantle's got to offer, such as the coolest bar, coffee and food scene.
Price range: From S$320 on Agoda
Best for: A unique stay near some of the coolest bars in town
Address: 19-29 Henderson Street, Fremantle, Perth, Australia, 6160
Nearby attractions: Fremantle, Bathers Beach
