The building looks old and tired but the rooms were clean and tidy and the service staff were pleasant. They provide secure parking between 11pm and 6 am and a continental breakfast was included. Great location and very close to the beach, I would happily stay there again. More

I found this hotel very clean but the decor was extremely worn and dated. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food downstairs had delicious enormous portions. The bar was also very lively and busy and the beach is within 5 mins walk. More

I found this hotel to be of good standard for price and age. However a warning building site is being started next door so may get noisey. Cleaning staff also have no concept of voice volume control even when there is a do not disturb sign on your door they dont take this into account for your comfort More

Have stayed here before, basic 2/3 star hotel, check in was good. We requested room on south side due to late night bands in bar below which we received. Clean room, slighly noisy old air con. Its a case of you get what you pay for, which suited us fine for this trip. The Indi Bar downstairs had couple good... More

Stayed at Indian Ocean Hotel in February 2012. Staff don't seem well trained in customer service. We were ignored at check-in whilst 3 staff members served 1 other client at desk. Room was basic but clean. Bath towels included but a hand towel would have been nice. Breakfast was simply but adequate. Staff member on duty was unfriendly, distracted and... More

Likes: While we booked a King room to fit the family, we found out it faced the pool area and the pub with live music from thursday onwards. We requested for a similar room facing the other side. Even though they were fully booked out, they were kind enough to consider the childrens sleeping time and swap us with another... More

We stayed in a 'Deluxe' room, upon opening the door to our room on the fourth level, I was convinced we had been given a standard room, as it turns out it was the right room. The overall look of the hotel and rooms gives the impression this place hasn't had much done to it since the 80's. However the... More

Stayed at the Indian Pacific November 2011. Yes, it is basic but value for money considering the location, however, it appears not much time spent on basics. As you arrive it's untidy appearance, could easily be solved by a broom and basic gardening. The reception area is not inviting and staff were not friendly. Room was a good size and... More

I think I need to put the record straight about the Indian Ocean Hotel because it's actually a very reasonable hotel. My wife, 19month toddler and I flew out from the UK to Perth mid November for a total of 15 nights via Emirates. Having done some research we decided to stay in Scarborough beach due to its excellent beach... More
