I would recommend the Esplanade for a wedding reception. It was the best value - free accommodation for bride/groom and both sets of parents; free canapes and no venue hire. Great location. Food and drinks package ordinary.

The WOMOW reviews were very good so I decided to visit for lunch with my family and have the smorgasbord lunch. The place was packed, but we had made a booking, and the staff promptly showed us to our table. There was lots of food to choose from, from roasts, pizza, salads, antipasto, loads of seafood, hot dishes and a delicious dessert table that seemed endless. It is great value, the staff are nice and I would go back again. Thanks Womow for helping me find this lovely hotel in Fremantle.

Approximate cost: $30

My review is based on a wedding reception. The wedding co-ordinator here is so lovely and thorough, she does such a great job and for her service alone I would recommend this property. The Indian Ocean Room was beautiful, it overlooks the outside pool where you can have pre dinner drinks and the buffet meal section is off to the side of the function room so you don't have to look at it when you are in the main area etc. It can fit up to 10 tables plus bridal but try and keep it down to 9 so you have more room. Furnishings etc are all modern which I also loved as some places the carpets were horrible and the curtains were floral (yuck!). Prices are reasonable for a wedding reception, don't be expecting anything cheap. Get married Jan, Feb, June, July or Aug for a better deal !!

Beautiful Hotel and facilities, have stayed several times and will do again, any time! food and staff all very friendly and always have an enjoyable stay.

We stayed there for Christmas Eve. The minute we got there my crawling daughter ventured onto the verandah and came in looking like she'd been in a coal mine. We had room service for dinner and the vege was over cooked and the carrot slices were so big and tough I thought I was in a two star diner, the burger was in the same category. The pool was beautiful and we did spend a nice day laying around and swimming. Overall as a local there is no way I would stay there again nor would I recommend my friends stay there.

Very nice food whether you are staying in the hotel or eating in the restaurant or even in the bar. Reasonably price too no matter where you are. Staff are friendly but some of the younger ones need to watched.
