The Ritz-Carlton Perth

$$$$Luxury

Perth's flagship luxury hotel at Elizabeth Quay on the Swan River, featuring stunning water and city views, a rooftop pool, three world-class restaurants including Hearth, and 205 elegantly appointed rooms and suites. The spa is exceptional and the location allows easy walking to the CBD and ferry terminal.

The Ritz-Carlton Perth occupies a landmark position at Elizabeth Quay on the southern edge of Perth's CBD, with the Swan River on one side and the city skyline on the other. Located at 1 Barrack Street, the hotel is a short walk from the Perth CBD retail and business precincts, the Art Gallery of Western Australia, and the Elizabeth Quay ferry terminal, which provides direct water connections to South Perth and Fremantle. The Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre is immediately adjacent.

The 205-room tower opened in 2019 and is the city's first Ritz-Carlton property. The architecture reflects the sculptural forms of the riverfront precinct, with a curved glass facade and copper-toned accents. Interiors draw on the natural palette of the Western Australian landscape — warm timbers, ochre tones, and textures evoking the state's coastline and red-earth interior.

Rooms and suites span 20 floors, with most offering floor-to-ceiling windows. Swan River view rooms face north across the water and the parklands of South Perth; city view rooms look back across the CBD skyline. Suites include Club Suites, Premier Suites, and the Ritz-Carlton Suite on the top floor. The Club Lounge provides private check-in, all-day food and beverage presentations, and concierge service for guests in upper-floor rooms.

Dining is anchored by Hearth, the hotel's signature restaurant helmed by chef Jed Gerrard, which centres on wood-fire cooking and features produce sourced from Western Australia's farms, seas, and vineyards. WSKI Bar on the lower ground level opens to the Elizabeth Quay waterfront. The Long Bar on the ground floor serves cocktails in an art-deco-inspired setting. Room service is available around the clock.

The rooftop pool deck on Level 22 is one of Perth's most celebrated vantage points, combining an infinity-edge lap pool with unobstructed views across the Swan River. The Ritz-Carlton Spa offers a full menu of treatments alongside steam rooms, a plunge pool, and a well-equipped fitness centre. The concierge team is experienced in organising Swan Valley day trips, Rottnest Island ferry bookings, and Margaret River transfers. Valet parking is available on-site, and the Elizabeth Quay CAT bus stop provides free public bus access to the wider Perth CBD.
