![BOOK A HOTEL ROOM WITH A SPA BATH](https://www.visiting.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/BOOK-A-HOTEL-ROOM-WITH-A-SPA-BATH.jpg)
What could be more romantic than sitting in a spa bath with your loved one whilst looking out to the Perth cityscape at night?
Well, that is exactly what you can do at the Doubletree By Hilton Perth Northbridge!
Situated on James Street, just a few metres from Yagan Square, this luxury 5-star venue is one of the best spa hotels in Perth.
It features a fantastic swimming pool, excellent fitness centre and very good bar and restaurant. But its signature attraction has to be the junior suites it offers with a spa bath.
Not all of their rooms are furnished with this amenity. So you will need to request one that does when you make a booking – which will set you back between $200 and $400 a night.
However, when you are cuddling up in the bath, with the water bubbling, you will be glad you made the outlay.
At an additional cost, breakfast and dinner can be included. While all guests are also given a complimentary bag of the hotel’s signature Doubletree chocolate chip cookies to enjoy during their stay there.
Stroll around a farmer’s markets
