The Peninsula Riverside Serviced Apartments

We love staying at Peninsula as it is just a short ferry ride to the city centre. We chose a studio unit which has all the facilities needed for a couple of nights stay. Free parking is included. The location on the South Perth foreshore is such an amazing area & just the best value for money. Short walk from local shopping area. Will always choose these apartments when we holiday in Perth.

The best hotel in Perth. We love the location, the apartment was spotless and spacious. The kitchen is great with a decent size fridge. We are travelling up north and we were carrying quite a lot of food. Everything we managed to fit it in the fridge and freezer. The staff were friendly and professional. Free parking is a big bonus. Lovely accommodation. We will come back!

We decided to spend our last 2 nights in Perth in The Peninsula for nostalgic reason. This was where we stayed some 20 yrs ago on our first trip to Perth and we haven’t been there since even though we travelled every year to Perth. |Nothing much has changed and the room was well kept despite the age. There was no river view as expected. |We enjoyed the walk along the riverside and the various dining options at Mends St. probably our last stay there

Rooms roughly finished. Not as nice as the photos. Lady at the desk was nice and helpful. But we booked a room with a balcony. What we got was a room with a tiny alcove to sit out in the car park. Sent an email with a complaint about this and that was promptly ignored by management with an email restating the parking policy. No where on the listing are you told that there is a first come first serve for parking. You will receive an email about that 3 days before your trip. So when the car park is full you're paying for street parking. Wifi slower then mobile. I've had bigger hot water systems in a mining donga. Bugs on Windows sills. Rooms are dark and no privacy shear. Can't open windows without the whole world having a clear view into the room. Misleading advertising at best. Would stay elsewhere in future. Lovely photo of the 'balcony' attached.

Great location, can be accessed by public transport from the airport - take the Airport Line in and then the ferry at Elizabeth Quay. Stayed at start and end of visit to WA. First leg - room was a bit dusty (just myself, could even be hay fever but not sure) but excellent views. Second leg, much better despite getting the cheaper room (no direct river view). Overall very relaxing trip, free parking and convenient location with attached kitchen and accommodating service staff. Would come back when revisiting Perth.

It's a nice service apartment with free parking. Free coffee, hot milk & chocolate provided at hotel lounge with nice view. There are bars, 24hrs local supermarket, F&B nearby the hotel. Around 40mins walking distance to Perth city centre. Suitable for those who love walking & want to save money for parking at the city area.

The location is genuinely great — easy access to South Perth and the city, and the coffee machine in the guest lounge is a standout and very much appreciated. That said, the apartments themselves are severely outdated and quite dark. The rooms feel tired, with cracking tiles in the bathroom that really detract from the overall comfort. The Wi-Fi is patchy and inconsistent, which is frustrating, especially if you need to work or are trying to run multiple devices. TVs are limited to local channels only, with no option to cast or connect your own streaming services, which feels pretty behind the times. Overall, it’s fine for the location, but given the condition of the rooms and the lack of modern amenities, it’s not great value for money. A refurbishment and tech upgrade would make a huge difference.

We saw more than 5 cockroaches 🪳 on the first night. And more than 10 cockroach for the next 10 days. The reception manager wasn’t helpful. She just said it’s because Australia’s summer thing. And the old man staff was laughing it off. This customer service was very dismissive and disrespectful. I stayed so many hotels before and I’ve never seen this much cockroach at the once in my life. On the first night, we saw big cockroaches in the room, under the sink and in the kitchen cabinet. Another one on the door handle at the entrance, and at least three roaches moving around on the outside of the door. Imagine you will be scared to come back to this hotel every night. Because cockroach is sticking on the door handles. We saw more of cockroaches day 2 and day 3 and my friend woke up with dead cockroaches in the living room. I paid over $6.000 for this hotel for my family from overseas and they had worst experience ever. My family still had to stay there for the next 10 days, so it was 10 days of hell. However the young male staff tried to help us killing of them. They tried what they can do (just spray) but you don’t want to see dead cockroaches everywhere in the next day. It’s very unhygienic and was uncomfortable to stay there for 10days. They should investigate whether they are meeting hygiene standards. Because it was unbelievable number of cockroaches. Such a waste of money and the manager could only returned me $300 of $6000. And disrespectful customer service was the most disappointing thing. I would not stay again and recommend to people because it’s a nightmare hotel. And the staff could have done better customer service after this happened. Otherwise I wouldn’t write this.
