We recently stayed at the Esplanade Hotel by Rydges in Fremantle. The hotel’s central location was convenient, and the buffet breakfast was delicious. The staff provided excellent face-to-face customer service, which we appreciated. However, several issues affected our stay. The television in our room turned off every two minutes, making it unusable. The shower area had significant black mould, and there was a leak in the ceiling near the air conditioner. Additionally, after using the guest laundry facilities for two loads, our clothes were not clean. We reported these concerns during our stay. The staff acknowledged them, attributing the problems to recent changes in ownership and issues with external service providers. As a goodwill gesture, we were offered complimentary drinks and waived our minibar use (2 cans of soft drink). Unfortunately, after our departure, we were charged for the drinks that were meant to compensate for the inconveniences we experienced. This oversight was disappointing and detracted from the otherwise positive aspects of our stay. I hope the hotel addresses these issues promptly to improve the experience for future guests.

We can't recommend this hotel enough! My girlfriend and I stayed here for 5 days and had the best time. The staff were unbelievably friendly and helpful, the evening meals were delicious, and the location is second to none! The whole environment of the hotel and surrounding area is incredibly friendly and we can't wait to stay again!

We had a fantastic staycation and were pleasantly surprised at how spacious the room and balcony was! All the staff we encountered were delightful, and being an atrium hotel and right near the lifts too we prepared ourselves for the room to be a bit noisy but it was beautifully quiet. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. It's a short walk from the train station and into town, the perfect place to base yourself. The two swimming pools were like a lovely fresh oasis on a hot day and perfect for relaxing on the sunbeds to read a book. So glad we chose this hotel!

The Esplanade Hotel in Fremantle is a fantastic place to stay! From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, making check-in a breeze. The rooms were spotless, well-maintained, and had everything I needed. The beds were super comfortable, ensuring a great night's sleep. The location is perfect, close to everything Fremantle has to offer. Highly recommend for a relaxing stay!

Everything was lovely. BUT, I know it was my fault and take full responsibility for leaving property on site. BUT YOUR protocols need to be better in returning said lost property. I did not realise my problem till late and when I called, no one had any idea about my property. It was not till 930am next day, I was informed they found it. I was in town all day. If I was called I would have been able to pick it up, and not have the stress. Luckily I was only in Perth. But if I had a flight. When hotel services find something there should be a quicker way to contact guests. For just in case they are not far away and can return. Thank you
