Regular guest at this hotel.

I work FIFO and as I have early morning flights to catch and reside in Mandurah, I prefer to have an overnight stay close to the airport. There are cheaper options in the area, but I choose the Swan River Hotel as I believe you get what you pay for: quiet, comfortable and pleasant. This was my second stay and I will probably return.

Was disappointed with the restaurant closing so early especially as it was Christmas week. Hotel did not appear anywhere near full and yet our room overlooked the car park, would have been nice to have a view of the river as that is the main attraction

This hotel is showing its age. Buildings (which look like they were built in the 1980s) are very worn and outdated. Bedroom fittings, fixtures and furnishings are outdated and tatty. TV only shows broadcast channels, no Netflix or Prime apps available. The bedrooms are large though. Outdoor areas such as pool and various decks are closed for repairs. At this point due to its condition, this hotel should be priced at the budget end of the scale.

Pleasant overnight stay and will probably return.

I work FIFO and as I had an earlier flight than usual, I wanted an overnight stay close to the airport. There are cheaper options in the area, but I selected the Swan River Hotel as I believe you get what you pay for: I wanted something quiet, comfortable and pleasant. Swan River Hotel delivered on all of these: and the helpful staff even moved me to a quieter part of the hotel with fewer guests. I enjoyed my stay and will probably return.
