The Marina Hotel

I recently stayed at this hotel in Perth and found it to be a mixed bag. On the plus side, the location is excellent and the room is spacious. One of the standout features for me was the convenient parking—just a short walk to the check-in lobby. Additionally, the property is all on one level, making it easy to get to the room without having to lug suitcases up or down stairs. However, there were a few drawbacks that detracted from the overall experience. The lighting in the room is dim, which can be a bit frustrating if you’re trying to read. The soundproofing leaves much to be desired; I was easily disturbed by the noise from the in-house restaurant until late at night, as well as by early morning vacuuming. The sound from the TV in the next room was also audible. Lastly, the water heater was quite erratic, with hot water suddenly turning cold. If you’re a light sleeper or need stable water temperature, this might not be the place for you. However, if convenience and accessibility are your primary concerns, this hotel has that covered.

Lovely view. Good sized rooms. Beds were a little hard. We couldn't get an ordinary breakfast anywhere. We thought they might have some plates in the room so we bought our own but no. The two restaurants that do breakfast on the weekend, one didn't have prices on their menu the other wanted $14 just for toast. So ended up not having any. We also saw a man who wasn't well and had been there for a wedding the day before. The man at the counter didn't seem to care. We wanted a wheelchair for him and he acted as if there wasn't one when the gentleman had used it the night before. He says it's locked in a cupboard and he didn't have a key to access it. Not good at all. We won't be back
