Subiaco
1.9 miles from downtown
“Subi” is a classy place. Affluence is writ large here, with its well-heeled residents, the snazzy townhouses and a glut of gourmet restaurants. Start your day with a nutrient-rich brunch at Health Freak Café and pick out a shiny bauble in Rokeby Road’s jewellers. Then slum it with the Aussie Rules fans for a game at the Subiaco Oval!

West Perth
0.8 miles from downtown
The West isn’t that wild after all. Quiet West Perth is home to young professionals who commute into the city. You’ll see them pushing new-fangled prams or zooming towards Kings Park in a blur of logoed lycra. Tap into the contentment with a trip to Harbour Town Shopping Centre. Then head to Perth Observatory to contemplate the cosmos.

Perth Central Business District
In downtown
Money makes the world go round. And Perth’s “CBD” does its bit to keep the whole thing spinning. The city’s commercial capital is a whirl of taxi horns, suits and the “ker-ching” of cash registers. Splash your cash on King Street before sampling award-winning cakes at Jean Pierre Sancho. Cap it off with a cocktail at lofty rooftop bar The Aviary.
Places to stay from $10 a night
Cottesloe
6.7 miles from downtown
Cottesloe’s all about fun in the sun. With bodyboarding, beach cricket and good old sunbathing, “Cott Beach” is Perth’s go-to spot for seaside frolics. Set your alarm early and grab breakfast at Vans Café (pancakes with honeycomb butter are their speciality!). Stay till dusk to catch picture-postcard sunsets over the Indian Ocean. You little ripper!

Nature and urban life coexist in perfect harmony in Perth, the capital of Western Australia. This is where the Swan River flows into the southern Indian Ocean, passing skyscrapers, lively boardwalks, and beautiful parkland – all under a canopy of clear blue skies.
Kings Park—a huge, 1,000-acre greenspace—sits in the heart of the city, full of giant white trees, botanical gardens, and the State War Memorial that overlooks the rive named for its black swans. Across the river is Perth Zoo, home to more native animals like koalas, crocodiles, and kangaroos.
Perth’s main highlight is its surrounding natural beauty. From the flower-filled bushlands and the lush Swan Valley wine region to golden stretches like Cottesloe and Trigg Beaches, there are countless destinations for escaping the city's bustle.
Rottnest Island is right off the coast of Perth, a protected nature reserve with white-sand beaches, secluded coves, and wildlife like the quokka – a small, wallaby-like marsupial. The island is also popular with surfers who come to ride the waves in Strickland Bay. Spend a day or two taking the ferry from the port town of Fremantle, known for its Maritime Museum and 19th-century prison.
Back in Perth, you can find chic boutiques, galleries, pubs, and a large selection of laid-back restaurants in the Northbridge area.

An eclectic mix of buildings, people and things to do and see. A City for everyone? Clean air and waterways close by. Lots within a short distance walking; more within a short distance driving. A relaxed atmosphere - City centre lovely on Sunday.

The city has a relaxed atmosphere and with the free CAT bus services is easy to travel around. One issue is getting into town from the airport; it's easy on the train, but there are no notices to tell you how to so so.
The accommodation is the best in Perth in my opinion.

The accommodation is the best in Perth in my opinion. I love staying over at the crown towers. The pool area is my favourite it’s fantastic. The rooms are very spacious and very comfortable. The evening in the crown is a let down unless you have a show booked. Perth is easy to get around it’s such a beautiful place., There is lots of choices of restaurants and pubs.

Perhaps I am biased being a resident, all I can say is I wouldn't ever want to live anywhere else in the world. So much so that most of my holidays are taken in this beautiful state that is Western Australia. There are so many great bars and restaurants, beautiful places to Explore around Kings Park, Elizabeth Key and transport to other locations such as Fremantle are easily accessed

Large enough to have the facilities of a major city but without the congestion of Sydney or Melbourne. Pleasant weather in late autumn, reaching low 20s. Well-organised public transport system with well-connected train and bus network and very reasonable fares (and free in the city centre itself). Fairly flat easy cycling. The surf is less reliable than further south (or the NSW/Vic coasts. Rottnest Island is accessible and interesting. Nice coastal walk southwards from Hillary's Harbour (and northwards but we didn't go that way).

We've been to Perth numerous times and it's a beautiful city. Transport is cheap and readily available and easy to get around to everywhere you could possibly want to see. Loved the river cruises and King Park.
