The Esplanade has period charm and the reliability of a chain hotel – it’s part of the Rydges empire. A great location and the best pub meals in town are two highlights of a stay at one of Freo’s oldest hotels. The rooms are kitted out for those keen on staying in and relaxing, offering 24-hour room service and free Wi-Fi. Bathers Beach is a stroll away and you can make the most of the huge resort pool.
Time Out tip: Little Creatures Brewery is within walking distance. Run, don’t walk, and try the sticky pork ribs.
