Overview
First Impressions
South Perth Executive Apartment is one of those places that genuinely surprises you. You pull up to Rose Avenue, find your parking spot — free, on-site, which in Perth is honestly more of a luxury than people give it credit for — and you just get a sense that someone thought this through properly. It’s a five-star property, and you feel that from the moment you arrive, not in a stuffy way, but in a quiet, considered way.
Location & Neighbourhood
South Perth is a bit of a gem, I mean that sincerely. You’re right across the river from the CBD, so the skyline views are genuinely something else, especially at dusk when the city lights start reflecting off the Swan River. The neighbourhood itself is calm and walkable — you’ve got the foreshore nearby, the zoo is practically around the corner, and there are some really solid cafés and restaurants within easy reach. Couples especially seem to fall for this spot, and honestly, it’s not hard to see why — it rated 8.6 for two-person trips, and that tracks completely with the vibe here.
The Apartment
This isn’t a standard hotel room situation — you’re in an executive apartment, which means actual space to breathe. There’s a proper kitchen, room to spread out, and the kind of setup that makes a longer stay feel genuinely comfortable rather than just tolerable. The finishes are what you’d expect from a five-star property — well-appointed, clean lines, nothing feels cheap or afterthought-ish. It’s the sort of place where you stop living out of your suitcase and actually unpack.
Practicalities Worth Knowing
The free private parking is worth flagging again, especially if you’re planning to explore beyond the city centre — having a car in Perth opens everything up, from the Swan Valley to the beaches down south. The overall guest rating sits at 7.6, which is solid, and the location score is a very impressive 8.9 from recent guests, so people are clearly responding well to where this place sits. I’d say the location alone is a reason to book it over something more central — you get the proximity without the noise.
Why Guests Love It
What keeps people coming back to South Perth Executive Apartment, I think, is that it feels like a proper base rather than just a bed for the night. South Perth has this sort of relaxed, residential energy that you don’t always get when you’re staying in the thick of a city centre, and the apartment format means you’re living in it, not just passing through. It suits couples looking for something a bit more private and atmospheric, but honestly it works just as well for anyone who wants a bit more room and a genuinely great location to come home to each evening. Perth is worth taking your time with, and this place lets you do exactly that.

Guest Reviews
Very good
The location was great, a few good coffee shops around the corner for breakfast and a Coles for other needs. Lots of places to visit close buy
What could be improved: No microwave in the unit which make preparing a quick dinner or lunch difficult, suggest adding a small microwave
Good
Very convenient and nice walk to river. Coles very close by as well as nice cafes.
What could be improved: Unfortunately has a neighbour who can be a bit noisy at late hours. Not every night though.
We enjoyed our stay for the quiet but easy access to shops and attractions it provided
The apartment was clean and so well located - quiet (after spending the preceding week in Scarborough which must be the drag racing capital of Australia, this was a blessing), close to the coffee shops and markets on Angelo Street, and walking distance to the zoo and the Swan River foreshore. AND the coffee/tea mugs were real mugs - not the smaller white cups often provided by accommodation hosts.
What could be improved: We would have liked:
- a grater
- bedside lights we could read by rather than the low light ones provided
Review, As Requested
The location is amazing in terms of access to services; the apartment is pretty much ready to go, in terms of appliances and the like. Having the back access to the parking area from the patio is also very convenient; saved having to go up and down stairs when you go in and out. Its very comfy, the bed is awesome, plenty of space to store my clothes and luggages; big tv was also cool to have. Its a very liveable apartment, i enjoyed it thoroughly; would have stayed much much longer, if it was cheaper. Thank you for having me ☺️🫡
What could be improved: The neighbours are extremely aggravatingly loud. With the (non-existent) thickness of the walls in the building; their annoyingness is amplified. But; if you're a heavy sleeper with a taxing job like myself, it shouldn't bother you much to sleep at night. Can't speak for all, but the apartment was also quite dusty when I checked in, and as I have dust allergies my first day was spent just making sure all is fine. Cobwebs dead bugs and the like, nothing super major. The smoke alarm also started beeping out of nowhere my second/third day, but they came out and fixed it quite quickly. I wish this was checked and sorted in the first place, but that's just me being fussy i guess. The electric gate to the parking area also seems to hate me, and refuses to work 3 times out of 4 🤣
No deal breakers though, lovely spot for short term stays; wouldnt recommend staying longer with the price.... its up there alright, that's for sure (price-wise); and not in a good way.
Nice location for access to family. Good size and quiet neighbours.
Location near Angelo Street facilities and bus. Easy access at ground level.
What could be improved: Door locks were confusing.
A SERENE LOCATION, ADEQUATE CLEAN QUAINT APARTMENT WITH EASY CLOSE ACCESS TO THE RIVER AND SHOPS.
I ENJOYED THE QUITENESS OF THE AREA.
I ENJOYED THE CONVENIENCE OF THE RESTAURANTS AND SHOPS ROUND THE CORNER.
THE SECURITY WAS ADEQUATE.
What could be improved: THE KEY LOCK MECHANISM TO THE GATE TO THE CAR PARK DIDN'T WORK.
was a great stay, clean comfortable and quiet.
What could be improved: there was no official wifi password left at the house. it was only a handwritten note that a previous guest had left in the book.
black mould in the shower
Great location, good host and be prepared for a minimalist reno applied to an older style apartment.
Location, communication, parking.
What could be improved: Very obvious minimal spend budget renovation and not to a high quality. eg. no curtains as shown in photos, laminate peeling off bathroom cabinet, non matching furniture, loose contact on window between bedroom and bedroom. Needs some TLC and a few more coats of paint.
Great.
Super clean with no odours. Quite. Bed was perfectly comfortable. Shops were just around the corner.
What could be improved: This is more of a suggestion than a criticism; it would be great to have a USB port to charge a phone.
Great location for us
The apartment is handy to the river, grocery shopping and cafes and restaurants. We chose this because it was close to family and friends.
Neat and tidy. Good for a short stay for a couple.
The managers/owners were very accommodating and answered questions in a reasonable time.
What could be improved: The door locking both front and back takes a bit of getting used to. Dripping tap and dripping from upstairs aircon was a bit annoying. But to be fair they were all pretty minor.
Would happily stay again.
