Went to the Spinifex restaurant with a friend this evening. A nice new venue, clean and functional. I shared a starter with my friend, the pepper squid. Was OK. I had the Caesar salad for my main. It was disappointing. The lettuce (was it cos?) was soggy, the croutons not crunchy and nothing tasted "fresh". The staff didn't seem very... More

The Spinifex has been recently re-furbished and compared to the other offerings in Derby it is the by far the "freshest". However, it is not a 5 star resort and it does not claim or pretend to be, so if you are looking to indulge in luxury then you will be very disappointed. Our "donga" type rooms could best be... More

My first stay since the Spini has been refurbished stayed 5 nights on a business trip. I was booked into what was called Short Stay accommodation, my tip here is to avoid short stay like the plague. The rooms are smaller than Tune hotels in Bali, there is no wireless facility which is a pain if you're up on business... More

The room was very large and spacious. Lighting however was either too bright when even just one light was turned on or too dark if bedside lights or window blinds only were opened. Cleaning was very hit and miss each day and apart from the bed being made and bins emptied daily, not much else appeared to have been done.... More

We always appreciate feedback and will take into account your comments. Please don't hesitate to come to reception with any concerns (such as the incident with the bin.) Just to put your mind at ease, the bedspread's are washed on departure of every guest and the rooms are cleaned on a daily basis - but a full clean is done... More

We ate in the restaurant and the menu had a good variety of meals - however it was quite exspensive. The wait staff advised that there may be a bit of a wait on food, however were not the friendlyiest. After over an hour, our meals came out, they weren't bad however they were not worth the money we had... More

We found The Spinifex Hotel on the last night that we were staying in Derby. How we wish we'd found it earlier! Everything about our evening was fantastic - the staff, the menu, the service, the decor - especially the food. It was fresh, delicious and we couldn't have been happier. Would absolutely recommend it if you are in or... More

We spent a night at the Spinifex while on a Kimberley holiday. At $200 a night, we would have wanted it to be decent and thankfully it was. The hotel has been recently renovated/rebuilt and everything was in perfect, brand new nick. The bed was comfy, the room and bathroom were very well set out with all of the amenities... More

We stayed 2 nights at the 'Spini"....a very pleasant surprise!! The hotel is great, makes a lot of the hotels in Perth look a little 'sad". Everything anyone could want in the larger rooms including washer/dryer, cooking facilities,cable tv, internet,..etc.. Very comfortable. Restaurant food standards are great, staff professional, friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend this hotel to all categories... More
