Fremantle is graced with many fine hotels, all of which are situated close to stunning scenery and bustling bars and cafés. The Esplanade Hotel Fremantle - by Rydges is Fremantle's largest and an iconic landmark in Perth accommodation. A favourite with honeymooners and families alike, it offers a swimming pool, five restaurants and multiple bars, and rivals any Perth hotel, but its greatest asset is its location. Directly across the road is Esplanade Reserve with its 100 mature Norfolk pines, Sky Ride Ferris Wheel, playground for children, skate park, public amenities (including a water refilling station), and wide-open spaces for leisure activities. A short walk in almost any direction will see you run into a number of breweries, small bars, bakeries, bistro's and cafés. While a stroll into town leads to the Fremantle Markets and the never-ending spectacle of street performers that make-up an integral part of the colourful Fremantle experience.
Another hotel that bears mention due to its location is Pier 21 Apartment Hotel. Its riverside frontage makes it one of the most spectacular places to stay in Fremantle. If you are lucky you might even get a visit from the local pod of dolphins as you sit and have your morning coffee.
Nestling next to the majestic Swan river is the Tradewinds Hotel. Located in East Fremantle and recently refurbished, this Hamptons style offering will sweep you away with its charm and classic visage. There's nothing better than heading upstairs to the rooftop terrace to watch the sunset, cocktail in hand, enjoying the 360° views, as the sky becomes a picturesque vision of vibrant pink and orange.
If you are after a hotel smack dab in the beating heart, be sure to check out Bannister 22 Hotel, Quest Fremantle and Hougoumont Hotel, whose major drawcard, amongst other things, are their location fifty metres from the famed Cappuccino Strip. Wake up, walk outside and enjoy one of the best coffees in the world at any of the local coffee shops. The baristas are better in Fremantle.
Wherever you choose to sojourn, close to the sea, the river, or the strip, you can guarantee it will include some stunning views and chilled-out vibes.
