This boutique hotel retains its original private house feel.
Eight Nicholson, in the style-savvy West-Perth suburb of Subiaco, is a gracious home-away-from-home for the weary traveler. Guests would be well advised to quickly get un-weary, as Eight Nicholson Subiaco and the surrounding area of the same surname is crackling with Australia's well-known thirst for a good time.
Set in an old Edwardian building surrounded by chic restaurants, lounges, and shops, the look and feel is that of a contemporary, private home. Whether perusing the bold displays of the owner's private collection of travel mementos and art works peppered throughout the many stylishly decorated rooms, enjoying an early breakfast at the communal table in the open-plan kitchen, or laughingly chatting over a late-night wine tasting in Eight Nicholson's "secret" cellar, you'll most definitely leave with sense of what makes this, Australia's most westerly city, a worthy jaunt.
