The Parade Hotel

The restaurant was nicely located and you received a 5% discount on purchases as you were staying at the accommodation, also two complementary bottles of water was nice, and plenty of tea making items.

We were not aware it was currently undergoing renovation and the workers started at 8.30 ish on Sunday morning, some black mould in the shower and the TV had no terrestrial channels

Proximity to Payne Park

The hotel is in the throes of renovation and we would expect it to be excellent once completed. Staff were very friendly, food was good. The bar provided draught beer on tap from a local brewery with only Swan Draught as an alternative. Probably very acceptable to many, but I much prefer the more common brands as I have invariably found local brews to be not to my taste. There is a balcony area which extends the restaurant area. Too cold at the time we were there but it would be a very pleasant location in warmer weather Rooms were small but comfortable, the kettle did not work properly in our room, but that was a minor inconvenience. Sounds from the corridor and bar area below can be heard from the upstairs room we occupied, but that died down later in the evening. We knew the hotel is located 2.5Kms from Town but it is a very pleasant walk along the banks of the bay if you do not have car. There is a bus service close by but we could not find a bus timetable. We travelled to Bunbury on the Australind and it is a $15 UBER ride from the station to the hotel. There is a cafe next door for breakfast as the hotel does not open until 11am so does not provide breakfast.

The hotel is an historical building, and will no doubt be much better when the renovations are completed

Restaurant and location were lovely. Perfect place to stay of you’re planning a few bevvies.

No cooking facilities in rooms at all. Despite photography including a microwave. There is nothing. No toaster. The 6am jack hammer was also not great.
