Reviews for Esplanade Hotel Fremantle
Laura Winsper
Nice hotel. Lots of function areas. Couple of eatery areas. SERVICE- Tried to check in at 1pm but room wasn't available which was fine. 3 staff at reception and all helpful. Returned at 3pm, huge line up and only one staff member. While we were waiting a couple returned as the room they were given had people in it!! Turns out the wrong room number was written down and a cleaner let them into the wrong room (little concerning). ROOMS- Bed was comfortable. Room was bright in the mornings (blackout curtains weren't effective). The bathrooms were neat and clean but could use a facelift. Not a huge fan of climbing in a bath to use the shower. Overall a fantastic few days at the hotel. Great location and good value for money FOOD-Breakfast was great. Lots of options, very good scrambled eggs and good bacon for a buffet. Plenty of fresh fruit and yogurts. The restaurant was good with great pizza and good selection of drinks. Didn't get down to the pub (ball and chain) but had live music and looked nice. LOCATION- Fantastic. So close to everything. POOLS- 2 Pools, one was freezing and the other was cool but good. Lots of towels and lovely set up.

Come for a high tea event. Service was lovely, food tasted nice. The platters were just right and tea was tasty. The venue is clean and spacious and easy access. The event was a 'smurfs' high tea. $60 for adults and $36 for kids. They had decorated your own cup cake and colouring in set up with 2 actors as the smurfs walking around interacting. We were done within the hour. Only thing I would suggest is possible interactive games with the kids for the event. Did I enjoy it, yes. Would I go again, no. Would I go back for the Sunday high tea only, yes. Have stayed here in the past and the room was lovely, clean and spacious.

We had a one night staycation with our two boys 4 & 6. What a hit! Room was great, new carpet, balcony, great view of the pool, check in was easy (we even got in before 3pm!) and the breakfast buffet was delicious! Plus bonus of its excellent location for everything Freo. We’d checked the reviews before we came and were a bit worried but honestly it was absolutely great! Will be returning. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Best location in freo but the hotel they did an upgrade but I feel like they took a short cut it just feels outdated. I didnt stay but my friends did and they said the rooms you could see they had painted but the finishing touches you could see it was just rushed and no care. It's a pity as its a great spot.

For the price you pay the rooms are small and REALLY HOT and STUFFY because they have no fans and the old centralised air conditioning that Is always set to minimal cool no matter what you do! Also you need at least 3m charging cords as the only sockets besides the ones on the other side of the room are under the beds with lamps plugged into them!
