Great Overnighter”

City centre is great, but be aware it's the city centre, No it won't always be quiet in the streets outside. We love being in walking distance to pubs and foods. It's convenient for us as we normally have family join us for breakfast, so a full buffet in house works for us. We stay here quite regularly, and will continue to make hooings.

The Hotel is great for the kids in winter. Hotel room was quite modern and the restaurant downstairs is very accommodating. Only complaint would be the howling wind noise that comes through the door to the room. I was ok with this for a night but it would do my head in over a longer stay.

Great Hotel... Super Clean”

Our family of four stayed in a corner studio room. The staff were very accommodating by letting us check in early. The room was extremely clean and spacious with a partial view of the water. There are many cafes and restaurants within a 5 minute walk from the hotel. The air conditioning wasn’t the most effective so we slept with the balcony door open. The toilet had to be flushed several times but we chose not to report either problem as we were out of the room for most of the day. I’m sure that if we had informed the staff they would have been more than accommodating as they were very friendly and helpful! I would definitely choose to stay again but I feel the prices are a little high. Highly recommend this property!

Stayed here recently for a 2 night mini getaway for my husband's 60th birthday. The room was lovely and clean, the bed was comfortable., nice view from the balcony and the bathroom was clean with a good shower. Had everything we needed including a kettle and toaster. The lady who checked us in was lovely, very friendly, but unfortunately the gentleman who checked us out wasn't very pleasant and only looked up from the computer screen to take me credit card off me, didn't even look up when he handed it back to me! All up it was a very enjoyable stay and we would definitley return and recommend to friends

We haven’t gone back for years, however since it was renovated we found this hotel to be in a better condition than before. Awesome location & if you get a good deal, it’s great value for money. Staff is friendly, clean & good Aircon. Minor downside are the chlorine smell near the restaurant/lobby and water pressure when you shower (it’s fine for some but not to my liking) :) Well done, we’ll be back again!

Quick holiday”

The Lord Forrest in Bunbury was pretty good value for money; spa room was good, easy walkable distances to restaurants, pubs and shops. One or two problems need addressing: parking facilities (insufficient car bays) and you're unable to regain access/entry before 6am if you're an early riser. Lots of others use the below ground carpark, not just LF's customers. If you like an early morning coffee from Maccas or want to go for an early morning stroll, the desk isn't manned until 6am and as a consequence, you can't get back in until then! The access bit really needs attention... why can't a room key card be used? Silly basic stuff. Ended up staying 4 nights anyway!

The location is great”

We booked for the 30th December and we are aware it is peak period. There was no one managing the reception area nor was there a bell. There was about 10 prople waiting around the reception and when a person emerged- there was no sign of empathy for agitated customers. We were there early and manage to get some drinks but the bar was closed and open later in the evening. Our room was small but clean. We specifically booked a room with a balcony so we can sit outside and admire the view. Our actual view was an office building and our furniture was 2 plastic garden chairs. I do not think it was value for our money. Also we were given Wi-Fi password and the internet was down the whole time.
