Getting very run down great location charge for extra 1 hour after request for 12. O’clock check out after staying 6 nights is a bit stingy !!! Mini bar check did not even knock at door and housekeeping knocking on the door at 9am to service room not ideal on a weekend. Disappointing the pool area was nice

Five star service! (I didn't give a rating for breakfast as I didn't have breakfast) Wonderful to have the concierge open 24 hours. Lovely, friendly staff. The room was just lovely. Big, comfy bed. Immaculate bathroom. Gorgeous big balcony. The only thing I missed out on was a cup of tea! I had no idea the tea/ coffee/ bar facilities were tucked behind a sliding door cupboard which I never thought to open, as I thought it was a clothes cupboard! Maybe there could be some signage to make things clearer? Overall, I'd love to visit again. Thank you!

I have stayed here many times over the years, some over night, some a week and many in between. The staff are awesome, cleaning, bar, catering and reception. The rooms are all good, but be aware that some may be well away from the reception. I normally receive a room close to the elevator and reception, unfortunately I had one what seemed KM away this time. It was quite a trek. along the ground floor to the elevator was a trek, and the once on the floor, a fair dinkem walk to the fertherest edge of the building. Nevertheless, the room was great. the view a brick wall, but all was awesome outside the room. Hats off to the cleaning staff, they rock! Id say, BOOK, but be aware the room may be a walk and a half away from reception. I completely rate the bar and especially the food! The food is amazing. You may be fooled in Fremantle, but never in The Esplanade. I will most definitely stay again, but caveat, request a room close to the Reception on either floor. simply awesome.
