We have been commuting to Perth from the South West for appointments since moving from Fremantle so know our way around and what is good value in the area and the Pagoda in Como ticks all the boxes for us. The resort is tastfully decorated in oriental style with big well equipped and clean rooms. Although close to the freeway it is very quite due to double grazed windows. The resort is well equipped with a bar and restaurant as well as an outdoor pool and a gym. Highly recommended from me!

The staff is warm and friendly, this is the cheapest budget hotel in the CBD. Walking distance to various restaurants. The only negative aspect is that the hotel has no parking space and can't park on the side of the road, although during the day, safety is difficult to guarantee and expensive.

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.

I have stayed at the hotel over the past 15 years and it has gradually become a little run down here and there but the worst change is the service, nobody has a smile or greets you as a guest, your just another inconvenience for them. I stayed in a ”Deluxe” King room last week and the Bathroom was dirty and the Shower over Bath is a disgrace (see photo). I don't think I'll be staying again until some marked improvements have been made.

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.

We have used this hotel many times over the past years, but this visit was the worst of the lot. The outside areas were untidy with rubbish everywhere that nobody could be bothered picking up. Inside our room was no better, with finger marks and sticky substances on the walls and other flat surfaces. In this COVid era I would have thought more efforts would have gone into making sure the safety of guests was at the forefront. The balcony of our unit had screws and nails protruding out of the decking which was dangerous for bare feet. The place was being painted and I would have thought 7:30 am was a bit early for the workers to be starting a cherrypicker and singing outside guest units. Not sure how long it has been like it, but the parking shelter at the back has been badly damaged and a big section cordoned off which has reduced parking bay availability by a lot.

Surprised to see the Room, Cleanliness and the Comforts. True Value for Money, cannot complain. Great Room Size, Ample room and relaxing balcony area, a very good Bedroom and Fantastic Bathroom with washing. Room is very close to Freeway so there is very little sound that you can experience, not that I felt any as I was out most of the day and night it was quiet enough to sleep. Centrally Located 24/7 IGA Supermarket is walking distance, Walking distance for few shops and eatry, hotel have its own Italian Restaurant as well. What can an Traveller ask for more, saying Do not Judge the Book by its Cover is so true with this hidden Gem. Will definately recommend and stay again and again. Very good Receptionist very Customer Focus.

Very recommended to live here, especially for self-driving tours. The entrance is at Swan Lake. There is a park. There is a large grass field. You can have a picnic and morning jog. At night, you can see the night view of the other side. The restaurant near the pier is good. There is a big supermarket near the hotel, which is perfect for a few days. The price is cheaper than the other side Swan Lake.

Convenient location and parking. The balcony is lovely. We haven't used the pool but it looks nice.
