阿德邁斯特林飯店(Admiral Stirling Inn)

We spent 4 enjoyable nights at character filled Admiral Stirling Inn. This place is no cookie-cutter soulless hotel. A collection of cute, different, ship-themed rooms in a two-storey wooden building just behind Margaret River’s Main Street. Our double room suited us with a teen who wanted his own space. Two bedrooms with an ensuite between them. Air con, tv and fridge in both bedrooms. The price was good too! The rooms have lovely wood framed windows and doors. Our rooms were downstairs and there was some noise from our neighbours upstairs but it didn’t worry us. If you can’t use stairs, ensure you book a room downstairs. We loved being able to walk easily to all cafes and shops on the Main Road. Especially when the traffic was so crazy! We also enjoyed walking along the Margaret River, easy to access the path from the Inn. There is a common area (The Engine Room) with kitchen and picnic tables if you want to bring takeaway food back to the Inn. I recommend booking to eat at delicious La Scarpetta and Pizzica if you visit during school holidays. They are very popular.

Location was fantastic, check-in had no issues and the rooms were ok. My main reason for 2/5 stars was cleanliness; there were stains/marks on walls that wiped off with no effort and the bathroom had filthy floors and shower screens. Rooms have quite thin walls so if you like a sleep in then you may struggle. I would have given 2.5/5 as it was well priced and in a great location but 1/2 stars are not an opinion. Rooms had A/C, fridge and smallTV, Recommended only if you can’t find somewhere else or are on a budget.
