Overnight stay before long haul flight. Restaurant a bit limited. Arrived late and wanted a snack but only full meals available. Breakfast very expensive. Didn't seem very organised. Fruit juice had run out, no bowls etc. Lots of steps to get to ground floor accommodation - extremely difficult to maneuver with suitcases. However, receptionist was very helpful, booking a taxi and looking after luggage after check out

Regular guest at this hotel: close to airport

I fly out of Perth regularly and as I have early morning flights to catch and reside in Mandurah, I prefer to have an overnight stay close to the airport. There are cheaper options in the area, but I choose the Swan River Hotel as I believe you get what you pay for: quiet, comfortable and pleasant. I have stayed here many times and I will probably return.
