Hotels near Phoenix Academy in West Perth

The hotel is in a good location. It is next to the Kings Park in West Perth, with a bus stop at the door. Modern, clean and convenient. The receptionist service is very good. I know nothing about the breakfast.

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.

There is no gas stove, but there is an electric appliance with an oven and an electric frying stove. With some dishes, there is no bowl, but there is a cup, which basically solves the Chinese cooking. Going to the supermarket to buy pizza, eggs, etc. can do simple breakfast and dinner.

By booking without the free cancellation or housekeeping, it was $90aud per night for a 7 night stay. Fresh towels and rubbish pick up were offered every second day. The location is a short easy walk into the CBD (<10 minutes). The building is quite old, but it is in a quiet location, and has been well refurbished. The front desk is manned from 7.00am to 7.00pm. After hours check in was no problem and well handled. Staff were friendly. The in house cafe is open until 1.00pm. Room 314 was looking onto other buildings, so it wasn't a great view, but it had a large sunny balcony area (about 5m x 2.5m). And while the room was no smoking, the balcony is approved for smoking (for those that smoke). The split air con did a good job. The flat screen TV was about 96cm with plenty of channels, and there is a usb port on the back that will charge your phone (only charges when the TV is on, and make sure the TV is on first, before plugging in the charger cable). The shower (no bath) was well sized, and the hot and cold water was plentiful. The queensize bed was comfortable. There is an extra blanket in the top of the wardrobe if you want it. The blackout curtains work very well. The kitchen area had a 2 seat table, a 120L fridge, a 4 burner cooktop, a microwave, kettle and toaster. There was a selection of utensils and crockery. I found everything I needed to cook light meals. This was a really good value stay for me,and I would be very happy to stay in room 314 again.

Stayed in a 2x2 apartment for one night. Could not find entrance even though Google Maps had told us we had arrived as there is minimal signage and no directions for parking. Apartment was lovely but couch and chairs so hard and uncomfortable. The worst experience though was breakfast which was served in takeaway containers and was awful. Blueberry pancakes were uncooked, toast was barely toasted and only on one side; we left most of it uneaten. It would be helpful if staff were fluent in English. Housekeeping just let themselves in with no knocking even though we had organised a late checkout. Would never stay here again or recommend.

We got a unit that says no window and since there is no other places with decent price and this is the only one that looks decently priced we tried for 1 night and we were very surprised with the outcome. It's nice and even without a window it's by far one of the most cleanest and nicest hotel we have stayed so far. It's right beside the car park and tucked away at a corner but that didn't bother us. We love it actually. It's also on ground floor so we didn't had to climb stairs or wait for lift. The check in was seamless with automatic check in. Amenities is great. Distance was a bit far from station but it's a good exercise and walk!

The room was emaculately clean, bright and modern. Big TV and I love the fully glassed windows with blind out curtain so you can sleep without the bright day light shining on you. The kitchenette was well equipped and easy to use. The room even have a washer dryer for laundry. Very well located just a few minute walk to striling train station and a bus ride to scaborough. You can get your groceries from spudsheed which was also just about 10min walk. All in all it was an amazing stay!! Would come back again!

The service is very good, just that the room is quite dark, cause they only have 2 table lamps beside the bed and that’s all. Service team is nice enough to bring us another floor lamp.

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.

Overall was a good experience and service.
