We stayed here in April 2013 for 4 nights in Room 10. We were astounded to see how expensive accommodation in Perth has become, especially during the week. While mining may be a boom for the economy, it's killing the tourism industry in Perth! Given that, we struggled to find reasonably priced budget accommodation in Perth. The fact that we... More

I have never experienced more helpful staff before. When we checked in the young man managing reception actually helped us take our bags upstairs, "because there isn't an elevator" he said. Wow! The evening shift person was just as helpful booking a taxi for us. This is a very quiet hostel, unlike several in the area that looked just awful.... More

positives: good location clean and spacious sitting area helpful staff negatives: price additional costs such as wifi, crockery deposit (!) dorm rooms in need of a thorough clean kitchens not clean overall this hostel is ok just not great and not at all worth the price. the bedroom i stayed in hadn't been cleaned in weeks or months.according to girls...

I booked this place through Hostel World online, very affordable at $33 AUD a night, I was in a 4 bed dorm. Unlike a lot of hostels or backpackers around the world, Emperor's Crown has airconditioning! It made a difference as it was hot during the 4 days I was in Perth, so nice to cool off. I had arrived... More

I only stayed for a night but the hostel is spotlessly clean and quiet (brillaint for a good nights sleep), and the Swedish couple working there absolutely amazing. You have to pay 20 dollars for cutlery (it's refundable once you give it back) which is a pain. But definitely worth a stay.

Everything is very clean and tidy with big spacious kitchen. We are a mature couple and had the double room with en suite and A/C, what more does one need. Staff were friendly and helpful. Wifi is not free but City of Perth provides free wifi in city centre, so easy to keep up with emails. It's not the party... More

The staffs at EC are great, they provide lots of information and provide thorough help! The rooms are clean and locations is great! The wifi needs payment AUD 1 for 10 mins, but found wifi at the nearby Cultural Centre which save a little bit on wifi charges for the trip. No pool or gym but there's a great kitchen... More

This is my second stay here in the last year and I've been most impressed with the Emperor's Crown compared to other hostel options around Perth. The clean this place thoroughly every morning. If you're looking for the young, rowdy party backpackers than this is not the place for you. There are a wide variety of ages here and everyone... More

I arrived to Perth without knowing anyone but that immediately changed when I checked-in at Emperor's Crown. The staff is amazing, specially Seda and James, who became my family during my stay. Once I got my own place I went back to the hostel a lot just to enjoy and be part of the happy and friendly environment. Rooms are... More
