  • Written by: Sarah Peattie


With summer just around the corner, now is the perfect time to book a short break in Perth, a city fast becoming a hub for the arts, shopping and culinary delights as well as the unique natural scenery that makes it a must-see travel destination.

Enjoying some of the best views across the Swan River to the city, Metro Hotel Perth is located less than 5 kilometres from the Perth CBD and 2.5 kilometres to the Crown Perth entertainment precinct. This iconic hotel has been part of the South Perth skyline since the 1970s and offers affordable, spacious hotel accommodation for both leisure and corporate travellers, with free parking for all guests.

For tennis lovers, Perth has secured six of the world’s current top 11 players, including Spain’s Rafael Nadal and Russian Daniil Medvedev, to play at the ATP Cup 2020 (January 3-8).  If you are a cricket lover, you can enjoy the Australia vs India game from December 14 at the new Optus Stadium or check out the One Day series with the Australia vs New Zealand at the WACA (February 22).
