There are views at every turn from The Ritz-Carlton, Perth. Standing tall amongst the glossy urban redevelopment of Elizabeth Quay, the hotel offers prime views across the skyline and the Swan River below.
Right in the middle
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Elizabeth Quay's waterfront promenade sits right outside, and ferries depart from Barrack Street Jetty for Rottnest Island.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows look straight out across the river, and bathrooms place deep soaking tubs right beside the glass.
The infinity pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The infinity pool sits on the fifth-floor terrace, looking out across the Elizabeth Quay footbridge and the river.
The spa and gym
Vitality pools on the spa terrace overlook the Bell Tower, and gym treadmills face straight across the river.
At the table
Hearth cooks regional seafood over open native embers, and Songbird serves cocktails around a fifth-floor rooftop firepit.
Taupe, natural wood and clean lines are recurring mottos across the modern space, which has taken Western Australia’s landscape as its moodboard, though they’ve turned the volume down just a smidge.
How it began
Architects Cottee Parker designed the pink-mirrored facade to evoke the rare Argyle diamonds mined in the remote Kimberley region.
