Perth’s newly opened hotel mixes chic style with a little coastal ease and brings it to the CBD. HYDE Perth embraces that mellow atmosphere with tactile rooms, a pool deck that shifts from quiet mornings to social afternoons and FARRA, a Greek-inspired restaurant built for lingering over shared plates. This is a stay for social butterflies who like their city breaks to have plenty of variety – gallery mornings, long lunches, late swims and cocktails that stretch into the evening.
The hotel brings a new rhythm to Perth’s CBD
HYDE Perth is the first purpose-built HYDE hotel in the world, located at 37 Pier Street in the heart of the CBD. Its design uses sun-washed tones, deep burgundies and sage greens to capture the easygoing energy of Western Australia.
Across the 121 rooms and suites, including 18 suites, you’ll find modern furnishings, leather lounges and Argentinian wool underfoot, while the rainfall shower is stocked with Bumble and bumble products. Lavazza coffee, Bose sound and Chromecast add the details that make a room practical as well as distinctive.
For a closer connection to the hotel’s social side, the All Access Poolside Suite has easy access to the pool, bar and restaurant, so you can move from room to water without missing a beat.
FARRA turns breakfast, meze and cocktails into one long occasion
Restaurant, terrace, pool bar – why not be all three? FARRA is the hotel’s on-site eatery, with a modern Grecian menu shaped around hot and cold meze. The menu carries you through the day, from a relaxed breakfast to more social evenings of shared plates – think saganaki, rabbit meatballs and, of course, olives – with a cocktail menu that keeps the Greek-island mood going.
Feel like settling in for the afternoon in the sun? The terrace is an ideal spot to rest with an ice-cold cocktail in hand. With music carrying from the afternoon into the night, staying in feels particularly glamorous.
When Perth heats up, the pool is waiting
HYDE Perth’s heated outdoor pool isn’t just a spot for cooling off; it’s the hotel’s social hub. Start with a swim before breakfast, stay close to the hotel during the warmest part of the day, then move to FARRA’s bar or terrace for a drink – a natural transition as the mercury dips.
The wellness offering follows the same easygoing rhythm. A Technogym-equipped fitness suite and guided yoga sessions give you options beyond the pool, whether you want to maintain a routine or stretch out before a day of walking. The planned programme also includes Pilates sessions, so check what’s running during your stay.
The cultural side of Perth is easy to fold into your stay
The location makes it simple to build a day around the city’s cultural and riverside spaces. The Perth Cultural Centre connects the CBD with Northbridge and brings together cafés and bars, the State Theatre Centre and the Art Gallery of Western Australia. Elizabeth Quay gives you a different perspective, with the Swan River, ferry connections and waterfront paths providing a change of pace from the city grid.
You don’t need to choose between exploring and staying put. Walk out for an exhibition or a riverfront wander, return to HYDE Perth for a poolside hour, then let FARRA decide whether the evening becomes dinner, drinks or both.
