Best Hotels near Mount Lawley, Mount Lawley

Booked last minute due to my cancellation of flight. They have renovation during my stay so a little bit uncomfortable. Breakfast not included, pay extra for it. I had issue when check in, take quite long to solve, wait for almost 1 hour. The location at the heart of CBD, walked around at night to see Christmas light. Amenities standard, no laundry service at the moment due to renovation, asked receptionist and she direct me to laundry service nearby.

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.

Clean and good location. Really nice rooms with a lot of storage and privacy. Everything you need is there, it's just a little bit expensive for a Hostel and felt really anonymous.

The room was great; comfortable beds and luxury items in bathrooms. Staff were approachable and helpful. Would recommend staying here

the best there is in Perth ! super clean, modern, word class dining, services and also Huuuuge ****** for those who wanna try their luck ‘ awesome place to be in, prices are pretty reasonable given the quality you get here

The location of the room was great -ground. Plenty of available parking spots. I left early in the morning and discovered the gate into parking area was locked so you exist through the reception area which was good security for guests and the safety of your car.The guy at reception was pleasant and helpful. The room was clean and simple but caters for a travellers needs. You receive what you pay for & not everyone can afford over $100 a night & stay elsewhere.The water pressure in the shower was very good with hot water. But unfortunately the mattress was hard to sleep on and the pillows were like bricks. Take your own pillows!

I really don’t like writing bad reviews but this place just doesn’t deserve a great rating. The location is good and the rooms a big. I did get an upgrade to a suite, but everything is very dated. On my window, they had masking tape which I suspect was to avoid wind whistling through. That’s not a really great look though. Check in was a disaster. Admittedly it was Friday evening and there was a lot of people arriving for the weekend, but clearly they weren’t planning their staff needs properly and it was ridiculous. Not only that, but their EFTPOS machine was not working so you had to fill-in a paper sheet. I get technology goes down, but honestly that was just bad. To be fair I was not feeling well when I arrived, so the whole thing just seemed a lot worse than it probably was and the staff were actually quite nice, despite the fact that they were clueless. I had sent a message to the hotel prior to arriving with a couple of specific requests, which they did the absolute opposite of which just made me laugh. They weren’t a big deal, but it’s the little things that count, especially when you’re a diamond member of their loyalty program. I think the place just needs a freshen up and the staff need to get plugged in. I wasn’t actually going to even write a review, but what pushed me over the edge was when I turned on the shower and watched a whole pile of hair swirling around in the bottom of the shower stall.

Great

I stayed a night at the European Hotel in April 2023. Picked it from the many hotels I researched because it looked quaint and unique, and not like a cookie cutter modern hotel, and was so happy that it lived up to my expectations. I arrived early and was greeted pleasantly by the reception staff who arrived at about the same time as me. Was allowed to leave my luggage in a locked luggage room, and to use an upstairs bathroom to have a quick wash up after my flight, before setting out to explore Perth. There is no one manning the reception or entrance after 7pm or so (I think that is the time but I could be mis-remembering), so I was given a key to let myself in should I arrive back at the hotel later than that. That made it feel personal, as though you were being given the house keys! Sadly the famous Miss Maud's Cafe is no longer there, but there was a pleasant little cafe attached to the lobby where I had a hot coffee and sandwich. The hotel's location is very central, I was able to walk to the WA Visitor Center to get more info about what to do in Perth, and after a long day exploring, got one of the CAT buses which dropped me off about 5 to 10 minutes walk away. The room, a single, was small but perfectly adequate, with a clean bathroom and lots of hot water. The only not-so-nice-thing was that there was no view, there was just a small window quite high up which looked at another block. But for somewhere just to clean up and rest, it was more than enough. Would recommend staying here if you are not into those modern, perfect but rather characterless hotels, and would like to be in a very accessible area.
