Located in the culturally rich neighbourhood of Northbridge, the Alex Hotel offers something different for guests who prefer a cosier set up without wanting to sacrifice on style and comfort. Just a few minutes’ walk from the Art Gallery of Western Australia and the Western Australian Museum, this quirky and colourful hotel is a venture by locals who wanted to create a welcoming place for every kind of traveller. A world away from the large impersonal hotels you might find in the city, the Alex Hotel is made for socialising. Sample local freshly-ground coffee in the Lobby Espresso Bar & Lounge, or pour yourself a drink from the honesty bar in the relaxed Mezzanine Lounge. The rooms, simply categorised as Small, Medium, Large and X Large, are refreshingly minimalist with the plush, Italian linen bed as the focal feature. Staying true to their roots, local produce and products are used throughout at the Alex Hotel, from Sodashi toiletries made just 30 minutes away in Fremantle to the artisanal sourdough bread stocked from Fremantle bakery Bread in Common. For exploring Perth, the hotel’s Dutch bicycles are free to borrow – see the sights of the city with a map in hand. The continental breakfast of pastries, jams and fresh bread offered in the Mezzanine Lounge is plenty to fill you up, and for larger meals, the hotel’s ambient Shadow Wine Bar serves delicious small plates and superb European-style dining with Australian flavours.
Inviting day beds, tropical palm trees and cocktails at the poolside bar… this is a city hotel with a difference. The large, open atrium is the focal point of this resort-style hotel which, located within the casino entertainment complex, means a slight venture from the main lobby can take you to 11 different restaurants, a theatre and the glamorous ISIKA spa. Banish aches and stress with a Fusion Stone Massage or a Tulasãra™ Customised Facial, all just a lift ride and short walk from your room. Decorated in a soft monochrome theme, rooms are effortlessly stylish with deep soaking baths and a lounge area. Put on your favourite music at the iPod docking station and sink into the king-size bed for hours of comfort. Choose a Luxe King Spa room for an extra indulgent spa bath and city views. If you’re in the mood for privacy at the pool too, book a private cabana at The Pavilion, a private pool shared by just six cabanas and comes with its own dedicated host. For lunch and dinner, you are by no means limited, even if you never leave the complex during your stay. Dine on acclaimed sashimi at Nobu, order moules marinière at Bistro Guillaume or sample the dry-aged wagyu at the Rockpool Bar & Grill, part of the award-winning Rockpool Group. For a glass of bubbly there is no better place than La Vie, the glitzy Champagne lounge where the hosts are known for their expertise.
