The Westin Perth stands at 480 Hay Street in the eastern part of the city centre, a position that keeps you close to the main sights without the bustle of the busiest blocks. The hotel has 368 rooms, and many of them look over the Swan River or the city skyline. Rooms have separate sitting areas, mini fridges, 55-inch televisions, workspaces and in-room safes, and room service runs around the clock. The hotel has an outdoor pool with loungers and umbrellas, a 24-hour gym, a terrace and garden, and a day spa called Bodhi J. Two restaurants and a bar cover breakfast through to dinner, including Italian cooking, and there is a ballroom and nine meeting rooms for events, which makes the hotel popular with business travellers and groups.
Location and getting around
The hotel's page puts the Perth Mint and Elizabeth Quay within about a 15-minute walk, Perth Station about nine minutes away on foot and Perth Underground Station about ten minutes. That makes it a practical base for train trips to Fremantle, and the free city buses and the river ferries are close by.
RAC Arena and the sports ground at HBF Park are within about two kilometres, so evening events are easy to reach. If you are arriving by car, self-parking and valet are offered, with height limits, so ask about restrictions when you book.
The rooms and the feel
The style is modern and calm, with the emphasis on comfort, space and views rather than heritage character. Separate sitting areas give you somewhere to relax away from the bed, and the workspaces suit people who need to answer emails. The pool is outdoors and open for daytime hours, so plan your swim for the afternoon, and the 24-hour gym is useful if your body clock is out after a long flight. Breakfast is available for an extra charge, and the spa needs a reservation for treatments.
Who it suits and what to know: choose it if you want a reliable, comfortable international-brand hotel with river or city views and a straightforward walk to the station. It suits business travellers, couples and families who want space, and it is a good alternative to the heritage-led choices elsewhere in the city. Check-in starts at 3 pm and check-out is before 11 am, with express options for both.
Ask about room categories and view guarantees before you book, since views vary by floor and side of the building, and compare it with East Perth options if you prefer a quieter feel. Families will find the extra space useful, and the pool is a welcome break after a day of sightseeing in warm weather.
