New property is set to invigorate Western Australia’s social scene
Marriott International has officially opened the doors to the design-led Aloft Perth Hotel, the first Aloft to open in Australia. Aloft Perth is the centerpiece of an urban renewal project and will be the social hub of the Springs Rivervale community, which is located alongside the Swan River and on the doorstep of Perth Central Business District.
With its vibrant design and always-on public spaces, Aloft Perth exudes a sassy modern style that is reflected in its free-flowing open areas imbued with bold, local influences. The hotel’s personality is communicated through its vibrant collection of artwork by recognized Australian artists to the eclectic, modern decor furnishing its guestrooms and communal spaces.
Each of the 224 guestrooms feature Aloft’s ultra-comfortable plush beds, custom amenities by Bliss® Spa, fast & free Wi-Fi and 55-inch televisions linked to a Plug & Play connectivity panel.
The lively social spaces at Aloft Perth encourage interactivity amongst guests. The brand’s WXYZ® bar, with live music ranging from acoustic sets by local artists to DJ mixes, showcases specialty craft cocktails, an extensive wine and beer list and light bites.
The hotel’s signature restaurant, Springs Kitchen, offers contemporary cuisine with urban sophistication, with dishes including local, fresh produce to create homemade specialties.
Springs Kitchen even boasts a pet-friendly terrace, with water bowls and special treats for furry friends, encouraging neighborhood residents and travelers with pets to drop by for a coffee, snack or meal – day or night – accompanied by their four-legged friends.
Business travelers can brainstorm buzz-worthy ideas and host innovative meetings at the 924sqm of Tactic meeting rooms; suitable for small-scale meetings to large-scale conferences with the capacity for 300 people. The Mezzanine level is perfect for one-on-one meetings, workshops or smaller events.
Aloft Perth also features a rooftop ballroom with an expansive open-air terrace opening out onto panoramic views across the Swan River toward Perth Central Business District and the Indian Ocean.
Outside the hotel, the modern city of Perth awaits exploration. Nearby highlights include the Perth Central Business District and Northbridge nightlife and entertainment districts.
For a history lesson, head to Fremantle, a maze of streets lined with 19th century Victorian-era architecture that has been adapted into charming cafes and boutiques stocked with local goods. Day trips by boat take visitors to Rottnest Island, home of the unique marsupial, Quokka, or by car to the nearby and very popular Swan Valley vineyards.
Further afield, travelers seek out the world-famous wineries and beaches of the Margaret River, the Ningaloo coral reefs and whale sharks at Exmouth, or the endless beaches and unique pearling culture of Broome, gateway to the Kimberley region, one of the world’s last unspoiled wilderness areas.
