Only negative was we were asked if we required milk in our room for the tea and coffee provided and we never received it. Fortunately we had some with us in our car fridge. Also when our room was serviced after the first night they didn"t replenish the tea bags.

Relaxing stay at Guildford Guest House

Simple guest house located in a residential area in Guildford. Room not big but comfortable and well equipped. No food served on premises but it is an easy walk to restaurants and coffee shops. John was super helpful with recommendations.

The owner was lovely, extremely accommodating! Willing to do anything to help. Ensured I felt comfortable. Even brought me almond milk to my room. Bedding was lovely and all amenities extremely clean. Will definitely be back and recommending to others wanting to stay in/around Perth. Stones throw away from the train station so even if visiting without a car, very easily accessible and easy to get to other places around. Cafe strip also very close.
