Lonely Planet review
Corporate hotel Monday to Friday, leisure-soaking den of indulgence by weekend. The Duxton, often considered Perth's most upmarket option, stands grand and proud in the city, not far from the Swan River. Its enormous, marble-and-gold-clad lobby leads through to rooms which don't quite live up to the pomp, though they are still spacious and stylish.
At any rate, you will enjoy good-quality beds and linens, and the rooms are tastefully decorated. Up high, the square, blue-tiled pool nestles into the roof of the Perth Concert Hall, an impressive 1970s-built auditorium. Here the air of luxury is not lost, and welcoming dark-wood pool lounges await. Fittingly, the Duxton used to be a bean counter's paradise (that is, the taxation office), and money-oriented types still stride through the lobby, a wash of suits barking into their mobiles. But these days weekend packages make the Duxton affordable for more than just the CEOs of this world. And the restaurant, which looks out onto St George's Terrace much like a high-tea room, still serves lattes in handled glasses.
