Guests are obsessed with the views and location but frustrated by the parking situation.
Doubletree By Hilton Perth Waterfront
$150-250/ noche
Reserva esto si You want the best river views in Perth and don't mind a bit of lively waterfront noise.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Floor-to-ceiling windows with stunning Swan River panoramas
- Rooftop infinity pool that feels like it's floating over Elizabeth Quay
- Warm signature cookie at check-in (it really does set the mood)
Resumen rápido: A visual stunner that trades peace and quiet for prime waterfront action.
Reseñado por @raising_the_poulters: I took a weekend staycation here and the Swan River views from bed were absolutely healing. The heated infinity pool is a total game-changer for Perth weather, and the location at Elizabeth Quay meant I could walk everywhere. It felt like a luxury escape right in the city.

5 cosas que debes saber antes de ir
💡The bathroom has a glass wall with a curtain—privacy can be 'weird' for non-couples.
💡The AC motion sensors can turn off the climate control while you sleep, letting the room heat up.
💡There is no executive lounge, even for Diamond members.
💡The 'river view' on lower floors is mostly a view of the ferry terminal roof.
💡You might find hair in the drain—housekeeping is generally good but misses details.
