The Best Boutique Hotels in Perth

COMO The Treasury

COMO The Treasury sits lightly and respectfully within the three-storey nineteenth-century State Buildings in central Perth and is unlike any other boutique hotel in the city. Each of the 48 rooms and suites exudes its own serene grandeur—some feature heritage balconies, others have trussed ceilings or views across the Buildings’ masterfully reconstructed wrought-iron turrets.

A stay here wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the pool—walking down the wide, elegant heritage hallways and emerging into the warm glow of the tranquil blue indoor pool, surrounded by travertine paving, soft jazz, and the distant peal of church bells, it feels like stepping into your own private corner of Italy.

You’ll also want to secure a booking at Wildflower, where the six seasons of the Noongar Indigenous calendar are celebrated with inventive dishes, or a signature massage at the COMO Shambhala Urban Escape. If that all sounds too energetic, surrender completely to the gentle art of doing nothing and retreat to the watercolour-filled library with a book.

Wonil Hotel

Wonil Hotel sits along the Swan River, its design blending modern elegance with a deep respect for the land. The spacious lobby invites you in with  deep sofas, casually stacked art books and an Indigenous sculpture work.

Rooms and suites are layered with felt, wood and neutral tones, augmented by subtly luxurious details such as artfully carved cupboard handles. And the broad terrace, as well as the rooms that face south, have sunset-splashed Swan River views. There’s plenty of prettiness to be found on the plate, too, at West Kitchen & Bar, which serves an entirely West Australian menu from breakfast to dinner.

Yet good looks are only part of the Wonil Hotel story; there’s a strong feel-good factor as well. Through a unique operating model, net revenue from the property is reinvested back into the Forrest Research Foundation (FRF), which drives research and innovation capacity in Western Australia by awarding fellowships and scholarships to the best and brightest researchers from around the world. A worthy stay, with a worthier cause.

Maya Maya

Top-tier wine, riverside walks and contemporary fine dining at Wild Swan restaurant are but three reasons to check-in to Maya Maya. Set amidst 32 acres of verdelho vines on Mandoon Estate, in WA’s Swan Valley—one of the state’s oldest and most celebrated wine regions—there are multiple drinking and dining options, including in-room service and a well-stocked minibar, so you’ll never need to leave the Estate’s charms. 

The name honours the historical significance of the site to the Whadjuk Noongar people, and the peaceful surroundings reflect this sacred connection. With just 32 rooms, the hotel is an intimate retreat ideal for a romantic getaway or a weekend of gourmet indulgence.

The rooms are modern and unfussy, with natural materials balancing subtle luxury and rustic appeal, surrounded by quintessential Aussie bushland and verdelho vines dating to 1895.

The Timothée

As soon as you set foot on the grounds of The Timothée on the outskirts of Busselton, the world seems to fade into a pastel Slim Aarons fantasy. 

With its palm-lined pool and mint-green striped umbrellas, the resort invites you to slow down and enjoy the simple pleasures of life. Rooms are airy and filled with soft terracotta and cream tones, while terrazzo floors evoke a laid-back charm reminiscent of a bygone era.

There’s no rush here—whether it’s enjoying locally commissioned artwork or handmade furniture by co-owner Alice Brady and her father, every detail is carefully thought out. Spend your days by the pool or take a stroll into town for a cinnamon scroll from Dusty Buns, then cap the day with a delicious chicken curry from Curry Port, the on-site Indian restaurant.

Chimes Spa Retreat

Located on Mount Shadforth—or Wakundup—in Denmark, Chimes Spa Retreat offers a true escape from the everyday grind. Owner Jeanne Herholdt has brought her vision to life here, with a renovation that seamlessly blends natural materials with personal touches. Artworks from her South African family home sit alongside a rotating exhibition of local artists, creating a welcoming, personal atmosphere throughout the property.

While the spa treatments are the highlight, Chimes offers much more. With freestanding bathtubs or double-spa Jacuzzis in each room, barbecue facilities, a pool table, board games, and a working fireplace, you can unwind in your own way. Whether you’re here for some serious pampering or just to slow down and enjoy the surroundings, this is a place that invites you to embrace relaxation fully.

Premier Mill Hotel

The Premier Mill Hotel sits in the heart of Katanning, its rich history reflected in every corner of this thoughtfully restored 19th-century roller mill.

From the original Jarrah-lined grain silos to the striking mill chimney, the building tells a story of a bygone era while offering the comfort of modern luxury. West Australian architect Michael Patroni’s design blends heritage features with contemporary style, making for a space that feels both welcoming and timeless.

With spacious rooms, high-quality linens, and thoughtful details throughout, Premier Mill Hotel offers a comfortable stay where history and design meet. Whether you’re drawn by the heritage or the luxury, this is a stay that offers both character and comfort.

Farmers’ Home Hotel

Check-in and chill out at Farmers’ Home Hotel with luxurious, modern rooms that celebrate the history of this 150-year-old country hotel.

It’s lived a life at the centre of this Avon Valley town, which wouldn’t have always been as bouji an experience as it is now. A place where farmers would lay their heads when they came to Northam (hence the name), it’s now as likely to be city guests seeking a different pace as they drive or take the train from Perth for a few nights. For international guests, it gives an Australian experience beyond the capital cities.

For those with access to the first-floor wrap-around verandah, there’s the opportunity to slump into deckchairs and just take in the light at sunrise or sunset, which is captivating wherever you’re from. Rooms are spacious and light-filled, with high ceilings, restored period features, and modern bathrooms. Aesop body care products, high-quality linens, and Bang & Olufsen speakers are the added oomph in the boutique experience. Each room has a big screen TV that’s discreetly hung and access to a library of free-to-air new-release movies.
