An older hotel right on the river. It was a good place to stay for a quiet evening but some of the amenities felt dated.

Staff was great, as was the service. Only negative issue was the bed. Mattress much in need of replacement. But for that would have gotten 5 rating across the board.

Quick stopover on Perth.
Rooms are fine but no A/C. Also no lift. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Parking difficult if their small car park is full. However, great location and lovely outlook onto the river.

Defiantly will stay again
Really nice hotel with exceptionally friendly staff, 5 minute walk from the town center with plenty of bars and restaurants.
Only thing for us was the parking lot is super tight if you have a big car like ours
