Over the past four years, my partner and I have travelled to Perth for our annual pilgrimage to catch up with family. This year we stayed at Sam and Christian’s apartment in West Perth and it was a delight from the moment we entered their apartment.
Firstly, Sam was kind enough to allow us to store our bags at their apartment earlier than our check-in time (while the apartment was being cleaned) and provide us with our set of keys. This was very much appreciated otherwise we would have needed to carry around suitcases for 3 hours.
When we did return to the apartment the fridge included some milk, bread and butter which we weren’t expecting plus a complimentary bottle of Margaret River Shiraz!
The apartment’s location is perfect. This year, we didn’t hire a car and relied on public transport and Ubers. Located two blocks away from “CAT” bus stops. We travelled regularly to the CBD, and Perth Mint using the free “Red Cat, while we travelled to Leederville for restaurants, food supplies, Re Store continental rolls and the movies at Luca Cinema using the free “Green Cat” bus service. Additionally, from Leederville, we travelled on the northern train line to catch up with family; and an Uber ride to the airport costs around $35.
This West Perth location is perfect for daily walks to Kings Park (surely one of the best parks in the world), early walks into the city, Elizabeth Quay and the foreshore of the Swan River.
We stayed at the apartment for 8 days, our longest trip to Perth. During this time, we cooked a few meals at the apartment which is equipped for this, plus we also made use of the washing machine.
We highly recommend staying at Sam and Christian’s apartment. The apartment is in a security building so you can be rest assured that you are safe and sound.
We will definitely be back!!!
