"I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Norfolk. The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful throughout, the hotel bar, food, and ambience were all excellent, and the bedroom was neat, comfortable, and functional. I would not hesitate to stay again should I need temporary accommodation in central Fremantle."

Fantastic hotel. We stayed in the historic garde cottages which have been beautifully & sympathetically restored. Breakfast was an unexpected bonus. The speakeasy bar Gimlet with complementary daily drink is a perfect spot for a relaxing pre or post dinner drink.

We had a great stay at this hotel. Newly renovated rooms are large and modern. Don't be put off by the shared bathroom as they have seperate male/female ones and have 3 cubicles.

As soon as I arrived I was made to feel comfortable. The staff were so friendly and helpful and always greeted me with a smile. The room was maintained well and was always left a helpful note as to what the weather could be and who cleaned my room. Overall it was an amazing stay and I would definitely stay again. I loved every minute of it!

The Norfolk suited us perfectly for our overnight stay in Fremantle. Centrally located; friendly staff; good WiFi.
The welcome drink (ie a pint each) was greatly appreciated on a hot Sunday afternoon!
Our room was clean and organised. Great to have a Nespresso machine in there for a decent coffee. The tea selection was excellent too. The shower was awesome.

We really enjoyed our stay at Nautica, despite getting locked in the car park when we first arrived, which was hilarious. To any future guests, don't follow someone in to park your car before getting the key! The location was spot on, the bus stop outside was super convenient too and the coffees across at Me me Joan's was lovely! The staff were really helpful and the roof top bar/restaurant served the most amazing food!

Excellent position for walking to the ferry, park and town. Lovely comfy beds and an efficient service. Great bar food all reasonably priced. Enjoyed our stay and the taxi ordering was excellent.
