We had been looking forward to staying at the Nevis Estate because we come to Perth often but usually stay at the Best Western in central Perth which was fully booked that weekend. The Nevis Estate is beautifully renovated and the grounds are beautiful but it's bit of a walk to downtown Perth. The Ardbeg room was large and very comfortable and very clean although the bathroom was very small. The bed was one of the most comfortable we've ever slept in. The breakfast was superb and the two staff members on duty were very friendly and professional.

We felt bombarded by e-mails as our stay was getting closer with requests for mandatory personal information such as date of birth as well as very specific instructions about where and how to park, that shoes were not allowed in the hotel, etc. Upon arriving, we had to place our shoes in a daycare style cubby system and were provided with one size fits all slippers to wear in the hotel. We were not allowed to wear our own slippers even though I was worried about wearing the provided slippers on the slippery staircase. We opted to wear socks throughout our stay. Unfortunately, there was a sweet scent and a "calming" soundtrack piped throughout the hotel and into our room which couldn't be turned off but mercifully went off at 9:00 pm. Given that the hotel was largely unoccupied as it was late fall, the music gave the hotel a haunted quality and the scent would be a problem for those allergic to perfumes. Also, those who are light sleepers should be warned that a major train track is located on the edge of the property and at least 5 trains went past during our stay with whistles blowing at the nearby railway crossing. Luckily, we enjoy the sound of trains and were able to get back to sleep each time. Apparently, ear plugs are provided but we didn't see any.

Comfortable bed; older historical house.

Complicated and bureaucratic pre check in process; confusing information; only one chair in the room, no electrical outlets on one side of the bed; inability to control the temperature in the room and, while a bar is promised, it turns out to only be open 4:30 to 6:30 and not available for an after dinner, evening drinks. Not really a hotel.
