Being my first time to Perth, I did not know what to expect at hotels in the city, but it turned out to be a very pleasant surprise. I have to admit that while the hotel will not cause any dimension-altering, jaw-dropping experiences, it was pleasant, relaxing and comfortable. As a family we rented a two-bedroom and one-bedroom suite, both... More

We went to the Richardson for our 28th wedding anniversary and a 50th birthday treat. We took advantage of the 2 day special that included a "degustation" menu and breakfast for both days as well. We were greeted and well treated from the start. Although they were having renovations done on the restaraunt there was no excess noise from the... More

Stayed a few nights and it is an all round nice hotel that I would recommend. If you are staying and you like fresh air, make sure you get a room away from the industrial fan at the rear of the property as it is very noisy. Breakfast buffet is a little disappointing with not a wide selection of fruit... More

Absolutely love visiting this hotel. First experienced the Richardson at their restaurant the Opus which in itself is fantastic. Stayed overnight last year on our wedding night. The attention to detail of service is outstanding. Attentive but not at all snobbish. The rooms and bathrooms are very generous in size. The bed and pillows are so comfortable and the towels... More

I stayed at the Richardson for 3 nights on a business trip. I have stayed in most of Perth's 5* hotels and this is certainly one of the better ones but I wouldn't put it up there at #1. The hotel is a boutique hotel and seems very quiet. It is located in a business district in West Perth which... More

Thank you Manly-sider for your feedback, I am glad that overall you found the Hotel to be very comfortable and our team to be conscientious. We only have a limited number of Classic Rooms that are set aside for our Corporate clients, hence this room category is not publicly available nor is it a reflection of our core accommodation product....

Don't expected to have a 'wow' when you arrive... the Richardson is all about understatement and service. We live in the Middle East, where we are surrounded by massive glamourous hotels - the Richardson is a very different proposition and most refreshing. We stayed 5 nights - on our first night we struggled with the pillows (my husband is allergic... More
