the relaxing spa at the richardson

hotel description

The Richardson Hotel and Spa is our favourite hip boutique bolt hole in Perth. Hit the spa or gym to completely unwind in the heated pool or sauna, or relax in the poolside garden. Do whatever takes your fancy.

location

The beauty of Perth lies in its suburbs, and the Richardson’s location, on the western fringe of Perth’s inner suburbs, makes it perfectly situated for the city and the beach. From this design-haven you can walk to King’s Park for a relaxing afternoon – or try climbing the double helix DNA Tower’s 101 steps up for a bird’s-eye view of the city. You wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.

your room

Hole up in your Deluxe Suite in ultimate comfort, whether it’s a bubble bath surrounded by clean white porcelain and marble, a film on the LCD screen in your lounge, or simply a cocktail (from your galley bar) on your private balcony. Each stylish room is decorated in rich golden colours, with beiges and beech wood for a really warm, cosy feel that we love. And to ensure a good nights sleep – The Richardson will even let you pick your own pillow from the Pillow menu. Not bad, if you ask us.

why we like it

This hotel really prides itself in service, going as far as learning the name of every guest to ensure that they can greet you personally every day. Little things, like a personal welcome from the manager on arrival that make you feel truly at home in this luxury five star hotel. All these little touches combined mean that just this year, Conde Nast Traveller named The Richardson as their favourite overseas hotel spa. Nothing is too much trouble for this place – they will go out of their way to make sure your stay is perfect.

Are we the only ones who miss the days when more restaurants required a dress code? At The Richardson’s Opus restaurant, you are asked to dress your best, which (we think) adds to the exclusive luxury feel of the hotel, and of course, the food is fantastic with hints of French, Oriental and Australian for some seriously innovative dishes. The perfect boutique address for every Western Australia itinerary.

You can stay here on our Western Australia experience.
