We enjoyed having a glass of wine while sitting on the balcony facing the Tay Turnaround Basin. Perth is a lovely town for walking and the accommodation was centrally located.

Home Away From Home
We both really enjoyed the property, spending much of our time like we were at home: just relaxing, cooking food in the really well-equipped kitchen and enjoying each other's company. Writing this review is just leaving me a little bit sad as I wish I could turn back the clock and go back! Perth was a lovely little town to walk around and spend time in. We didn’t have much of an itinerary planned but that was okay - we had an unforgettable time and this property was at the core of what made our stay memorable!

A comfortable stay in a special town
The Latakia suite was quite beautiful and comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. It was well appointed with a real touch of class! And our host, Randa, communicated clearly and helpfully at all times. Perth is an amazing, historic town. It was so great to be able to walk to such a nice variety of excellent restaurants and shops. The only downside was a posted sign saying we couldn’t use the balcony, which would have been lovely, apparently due to repairs or something. Bottom line: We will look forward to a return!

Our getaway
Great location, comfortable and quaint. Great response from host when we experienced a minor technical glitch with check in (our fault, not hers).
