Gallery Hotel
The manager went above and beyond to ensure that I had a good stay. I really appreciate the effort put in on such short notice. The cleaning staff was very helpful with my enquires about finding my way around. Thank you for putting up with me being a diva. 😅🙏

Garde Hotel and Warders Cottages
The hotel was wonderful! It is in a great location, wonderful staff and fun vibe. The beds are very comfortable. There could be a bit more counter space in the bathroom, but the showers have lots of hot water. I love the complimentary mini bar, g&Ts and continental breakfasts. I would highly recommend ...

Seashells Mandurah
Room was very good, reception were great. Location excellent but one disappointing aspect was the building work being undertaken on the beach front

Mandurah Coastal Holiday Park
There was great parking. The other thing is the place needs renovation, and ants were all in my bed. This ruined my entire sleep as I fought with the ants almost the whole night.
