Recently returned from a trip to NZ & Australia. We stayed 4 nights at the Holiday Inn City Centre in Perth. The cost per night was $132.00 AUD or about $70.00 USD. It was clean & well appointed in additon to being moderately priced. Also the location can't be beat. Our double room was large, with a large bathroom. It was much better than most of the 1st class & deluxe rated facilities we stayed in at other locations. Frankly I was surprised. I would recommmend it. If I ever return to Perth, that is where I will book.

Thanks for your input Bill. I have been negotiating with the Hotel for a rate in December and because of<BR>their location was tempted to book with them. <BR>However, when I asked them the last time they had rennovated their rooms they told me 1997 and that kind<BR>of swayed me toward not booking with them. I always ask that ? as sometimes the rooms in any hotel can be pretty dismal if they haven't been upgraded recently.<BR><BR>Did you find the carpets, drapes clean without cigarette burns? Would appreciate your comments on the appearance of the rooms as I am considering a couple of other hotels around the same price range.<BR>Mahalo<BR><BR>coconut wireless<BR>

The room I stayed in was spotless with no cigarette burns,no evidence of wear & tear, etc. I don't know about the other rooms but if they were like the one we had, the place is a bargain. By the way we had a non-smoking room.

thanks again Bill, I posted the last question after my msg to your e-mail box came back and wasn't sure ifyou would be checking this post again. Having said that I thought you might be interested in that I found a rate of AUD$72 21 day adv purchase on the Holiday Inn web site and have e-mailed to confirm reservation<BR>in December. Don't know where you live but in my currency that is almost an unbelievable rate US$. That is why I was so inquisitive to the state of the rooms ? I just couldn't believe the rate?<BR>Aloha<BR>Bev
