Best Hotels in Subiaco

Spent three days at the Vibe. Could not have been happier with the place. The room was large and bright new and spotlessly clean. The bed very comfortable slept well every night. The work station desk and chair better than most work stations in hotels, it was just more comfortable than most to sit and work on computer at. Being able to use pass card to go from car park straight to room floor was great no trekking past reception. Parking is undercover and behind a secure roller door and costs $15 a night which is great value and safe. To access the parking area you need to use a pass card in the elevator or at the roller door. Reception was great. I like the sit down and book in. The check in is run by the hotel manager who is always present or very near by. The managers are great people friendly, polite and accessible, and full of knowledge on the surrounding restaurants. On places to eat the hotels own restaurant is great place to visit. Prices on par with neighboring eateries and the quality of the food we could not fault. The wait staff were magnificent friendly and helpful. We visited during Perths lock down so masks worn by staff. Being a bit deaf really do use lip reading a fair bit. Our lovely waitress JOSIE took the extra time to write out the answers to our questions. So a big thank you to her for her effort and time doing so. The restaurant is on the top floor and has an open air part where it is lovely to sit in the evening breeze and enjoy the view. Granted its a view of roof tops and the city but we found it a pleasant spot to just sit an have a leisurely drink. The hotel is surrounded by restaurants of every style and type so there is no shortage of other venues to have a meal with in easy walking distance only 5 mins or less. The waffle shop would only be a minutes walk away. The train station is also just a few minutes walk away and takes you into Perth city proper and the coast at Fremantle. And the TV has the ability for your mobile device to cast to it. So take your favorite show or movies with you. We will be staying here again in the future when we have reasons to go to the city.

Very nice hotel, like the design of the lobby, simple decoration style, large room, comfortable sofa, large bed, clean and tidy, the sun shines on the sofa through the window. The waiter was very nice. The converter plug is not right. Fortunately, the hotel's bedside alarm clock can be directly plugged into USB. Hotels in Australia do not provide slippers, toothbrushes and toothpaste. Friends have reminded them before going out, so they all bring their own.

Lots of the reviews here, I believe, are reviewing Mercure on Hay (the newer, more upmarket hotel and possibly better of the two although I haven’t seen it), whereas lots of reviews in Mercure Perth on Hay are referring to Mercure on Irwin. I’ve compared the photos and the hotel details and official photos are definitely that way round. SO… this one, Mercure Perth (which is on Irwin St) is the bad one. It’s awful. It’s tired, badly fitted out, dingy and I hope never to stay here again. My room was down a corridor of *****ed (and stained) carpet that made me feel nauseous to look at. The room was ok, the bed comfortable, but more stained carpet, and lots of things didn’t work. Several light bulbs were broken, lots of curtain hooks missing, the room safe didn’t work, the bath had a rusty patch in it. The aircon was too cold for me and I followed the instructions to turn up the temperature but it didn’t warm up. Two phone calls and three hours later, someone attended my room, told me the air con wasn’t adjustable as it’s one temperature for the whole building so the instructions were incorrect. He turned it off (supposedly) and I then spent my stay with no aircon although the room was still cold and not stuffy and the control panel didn’t say ‘off’ so I think the whole thing was just BS and they couldn’t be bothered to deal with it or give me another room. Staff care factor of the attendant was zero, and of the front desk staff, close to zero. I got woken up in the early hours of the morning several times by skip bins being moved around in the laneway outside (very loud chains being dropped in the skip bins and noise reverberation). The next night the fridge started making such a loud noise in the middle of the night that I had to turn it off and use the spare towels to absorb the water as it defrosted. I’m just curious why Mercure keep this one running. Perhaps it’s set at a different price range but it’s not doing their brand any favours with two Mercure hotels so close together, especially with all the reviews mixed up.

We got a unit that says no window and since there is no other places with decent price and this is the only one that looks decently priced we tried for 1 night and we were very surprised with the outcome. It's nice and even without a window it's by far one of the most cleanest and nicest hotel we have stayed so far. It's right beside the car park and tucked away at a corner but that didn't bother us. We love it actually. It's also on ground floor so we didn't had to climb stairs or wait for lift. The check in was seamless with automatic check in. Amenities is great. Distance was a bit far from station but it's a good exercise and walk!

This is my 4th stay in last 12 mths. I like how central it is being in East Perth. Rooms are spacious with clean bathrooms & kitchenette area with microwave. There’s a good IGA 5 mins away. There is good secure onsite parking.

Special occasion for our wedding anniversary and well looked after by the Hilton Parmelia staff, and it’s always nice to see long time staff and the meet new. While diamond HH, we were upgraded to a beautiful Kings parlor room for the weekend, had an amazing breakfast in our room, and we always find the executive lounge enjoyable as a relaxing place to go and the food offered is often varied. We enjoy the Samuels restaurant and bar food menu, but I do miss the Caesar salad from the pre covid days. It used to be the best. We have stayed at other Perth hotels, including the DT but the Parmelia still comes out tops for us. Thank you for making the weekend so special.

The European Hotel retains much of its distinctive style but it IS different under the new management. Miss Maud is on an extended break but it looks like the wonderful buffet cafe/restaurant on the corner has gone forever. There is a small coffee shop as part of the complex. We were disappointed with the service. Offerings were fairly limited and not cheap. But there are other options nearby. The hotel is now more Eurasian. There is nothing wrong with that of course. Staff at reception are professional but can be curt at times. I endorse the comment of the reviewer who mentioned information about wifi and password was not freely given at check-in. Having said that, the free wifi was very good. Room was as we expected. Comfortable but the airconditioning took a little while to get used to. The hotel is an easy walk from Perth railway station so it is convenient for people using the new (October 2022) airport line. Public bus services pass close by. Many businesses in the area have closed down but the hotel surroundings are generally safe. However, some patrons may feel a little uneasy about some of the local street and homeless people.

Overall was a good experience and service.

The staff is warm and friendly, this is the cheapest budget hotel in the CBD. Walking distance to various restaurants. The only negative aspect is that the hotel has no parking space and can't park on the side of the road, although during the day, safety is difficult to guarantee and expensive.

I don’t think this hotel is in the best part of town but it is fairly central and easy to walk to some of the sights in the CBD and about 10 minutes walk from the station. However I wouldn’t walk around here at night on my own. I checked in quite late in the evening after a long flight from the UK. I had booked a small queen room and it was small. There was only a bedside table on one side of the bed, no wardrobe but two hooks with hangers on. There was a kettle, safe and fridge. The hotel website also mentioned a washing machine and tumble dryer for guests. What they did not tell me before I arrived was that there was building works going on in the hotel which started at 8 am. Not great when I was struggling with the UK / Australia time difference. It was quite noisy. The bed was really comfortable as there was a padded mattress topper. There was also air-con in the room which could be used to heat or cool the room. Although there was a mirror over the sink in the bathroom there was no mirror in the room with decent lighting to sort make up etc. out. There was a full length mirror near the door but not particularly well lit. The shower room was clean, with two large newish white towels provided. The water from the shower was hot, and decent pressure. It did leak a little under the door but not too much to become a problem. One of the issues with the room was noise control - I could clearly hear my neighbours raising and lowering the blind so there was definitely noise escape around the large windows. I was also woken during the night by one of the neighbours snoring loudly. And woken a few times each night by people returning to their rooms late. There is no restaurant for breakfast at the hotel but there are plenty of cafes locally. I chose this hotel because it was priced competitively but would not have chosen it otherwise
