Stay of the Week: Pan Pacific Perth
Enjoy views of Swan River and the cityscape from your spacious room, the rooftop pool or one of the many restaurants and bars.
In Stay of the Week, we explore some of the world's best and most unique accommodations — giving you a little inspiration for your next trip. In this instalment, we go to Pan Pacific Perth, the spot we're putting up guests who book one of our exclusive For The Love VIP packages.
WHAT'S SO SPECIAL?
At the Pan Pacific Perth you can enjoy views over the Swan River and the surrounding cityscape from your room, one of the restaurants or up on the rooftop pool.
THE ROOMS
The standard rooms feature all the essentials — a big king-sized bed, a pillow menu (because, why not?), tea and coffee making facilities, free wifi, a daily turn-down service and large windows that let in plenty of natural light.
Then once you get to the larger rooms and suites, you find that each has undergone a little makeover with new modern furniture, walls that have been given a new lick of paint and stacks of updated amenities.
FOOD AND DRINK
Of course, Pan Pacific Perth has a mixed bag of in-house restaurants and bars to choose from. First off, there's UMA Restaurant where Peruvian cuisine is celebrated. Next up is The Stage, the hotel's own cocktail bar and tapas lounge where you'll also be able to dabble in a classic afternoon tea from Wednesday to Saturday.
Beyond these two top dining spots, you'll also find the Hill Street Sports Bar and Restaurant, Monty's, The Lobby Café and a separate room service menu for when you don't feel inclined to leave your bed.

THE LOCAL AREA
This hotel is located in the heart of Perth's CBD, close to all its best bits. Walk the streets to find great restaurants and bars, unique galleries and theatres and stunning waterfront walking trails. And if you're staying for enough time, we'd highly recommend a day-trip to Rottnest Island. Take selfies with adorable quokkas, take a sea kayaking tour in untouched coves or go for a cycle to see as much of this protected nature reserve as you can.
