Rooms with no character, cheaply furnished, stained and worn carpets, noisy window-unit AC located directly by the bed. My room, booked by a secretary who probably just grabbed whatever she found without thinking, was ambitiously called something like "junior suite". It had a view of the first-floor roof with somebody's discarded sneakers, no lamp on the writing desk, two dark... more

We stayed one night due to a party in the city. We checked in and found the airconditioner remote was broken. The room was very stuffy as it was a 37C day in Perth. Rang the reception and they changed the remote within 15 minutes and also brought up 2 chilled champagne flutes for the bottle of champagne included in... more

Stayed at the Mantra 6 days. Arrived at 3.00 a.m. and was friendly attended by Karen, who was very helpful. Was given a room at the 1st floor, asked to change it and the following day got one at the 6th floor. The room service is pretty good, as well as the reception. Internet connection in room is very expensive... more

I stayed at the Mantra for 3 nights with a friend. We had a simple studio room with a queen bed and staff were happy to organise a roll away bed for us too. It is located only 50 metres or so from the shopping mall area, and withing walking distance of the train station and buses, so we never... more

I recently visited Perth to visit family and friends and decided to give this hotel a try. I was able to get a room for AUD110.00 from wotif.com and booked myself in for 6nites. Upon checking in, the room was horribly small. I asked reception to get me a bigger room which they did at an additional AUD40.00 a nite.... more

Breakfast was a buffet, and included in our package, even included an... more

My partner and myself stayed in the Mantra on Murray after leaving the Wentworth Plaza (a comfort inn) earlier! The Mantra on Murray was a bit expensive compared to other accomodation we stayed in $165 AUD a night. It was clean, comfortable, well serviced, location was fantastic, the rooms were quiet and the staff helpful, friendly and nice. In our... more

Date: Nov 2008 Reviewer: Malaysia We recently stayed at the Mantra on Murray (as it is now called) with young children. The rooms were very basic with not much of an ambience. However, they were pleasantly large in size which allowed for ample space for the kids to move around. The air conditioner in the room was a wall unit... more

I stayed here a second time after a reasonable experience the first time around. I had noted originally that although the rooms were well fitted out, the housekeeping was a little below par. Now I'm not actually convinced they do any housekeeping. The room I got was dusty all over the skirting boards, tables, desks, lampshades etc. More worrying was... more
