Shoalwater Holidays from NZ$1,921

Hubby and I stayed for 1 night when attending a nearby function. We were both really impressed with this hotel. Doesn't look like much from the outside, basically a big industrial shed. However, the way it's been set up is really clever and charming. We didn't realise check in closed at 5pm, and the receptionist was just closing up when we arrived at 5:05pm, but took the time to welcome us personally even though we'd been sent the after hours instructions. The rooms are clean and modern, great showers. The bed was a little harder than we're used to, but comfortable enough. It was lovely and quiet. The included breakfast was great too, nothing fancy but saved us time and money trying to find somewhere in the morning. Just a tiny suggestion for management, would be great to put out some hot chocolate sachets for people who don't drink tea or coffee. It's not trying to be a romantic or luxurious escape, but for somewhere clean and convenient to sleep and shower, it was perfect and great value.

Good location, Nice bright apartment, reasonably priced

The Alex Hotel keeps things simple with a minimalist design, top-notch security, and a location that puts Perth’s best dining and culture right at your doorstep. While rooms don't have in-room fridges or coffee setups, you get full access to a great communal kitchen and lounge on Level 1 to grab whatever you need. Off-site parking is right around the corner at the State Library, making logistics a breeze. It’s effortless, central, and a place we’d happily stay at again.
