We had Christmas in Perth, and some of my family had been in Oz for a month watching the test cricket. The Wacca is extremely close to this hotel.
There were always plenty of Reception staff on hand to help out with any queries and they were all so cheerful and friendly. The restaurant staff were brilliant too, but my only complaint would be that the menu didn't change in the fortnight that I stayed there. Excellent food and expertly cooked but if you want a great variation then you would have to find different places to eat out.
The 2 bedroomed suite we had was very spacious with 2 bathrooms and a laundry also (very handy if you are travelling with family). The kitchen was well equpped if you did decide to make a meal or even breakfast. Balconies not very spacious but big enough to sit on and have a glass of local wine. Our suite was always very well cleaned and tidied, considering we were travelling with 2 untidy teenagers!!
We hired a car,however parking it in the Saville Park was a bit pricey. Handy to have the use of the safety deposit boxes, behind reception though.
The walk along Hay Street into town would take about 15 to 20 minutes, but a very pleasant walk if you aren't really wanting to travel by bus. The bus service did run extremely efficiently and regularly with the stop being really close to the Saville Park, we didn't use it though as we had the car.
The shopping centre in Perth is fantastic, and the shops so varied. Plenty of lovely restaurants/coffee shops/pubs in town to choose from if you get a bit bored with the small selection close to the hotel. There is a very good off licence (Bottle Shop in OZ)accross the road from the hotel which stocks a huge range of wines and beers, so extremely handy if you fancy a glass of something.
Our christmas lunch was taken at Frasers Restaurant over in Kings Park. What a fantastic location, and a beautiful lunch with excellent staff. Even though it was packed, the service was absolutely spot on. You pay quite a lot to eat in Frasers, but well worth it.
I wouldn't hesitate to return to the Saville Park, as the wonderful staff made our trip very memorable.
