Whether you're a local chasing the perfect staycay or planning a trip to Perth, we've rounded up the very best hotels in Perth. 

High tea might just be the fanciest way to spend an afternoon—and Perth/Boorloo has plenty of lush spots to prove it. Here at Urban List, we think there’s something undeniably special about slowing down over towers of finger sandwiches, flaky pastries and bite-sized sweets, all while sipping something bubbly (or beautifully brewed).

We’ve tracked down Perth’s best outdoor cinemas so you can spend an evening watching the stars under the stars.

With beautiful old buildings, bucket loads of charm, a reputation for quality produce and some seriously chilled vibes, it's little wonder Fremantle is a Perth foodie mecca. From the new kids on the block to the ones that hold a special place in our heart, we’ve rounded up the best Fremantle restaurants you need to visit next time you're in the Port City.

Bowling might bring back memories of slippery shoes and birthday cake sugar highs, but Perth’s alleys have seriously stepped up. These days it’s all about neon-lit lanes, retro beats, craft drinks and way more style than your childhood party ever had.

There’s nothing like a long and luxurious lunch to make you feel like you’re living your best life. No other meal has quite the same feel to it; there’s something about lingering through the middle of the day, over a meal that’s usually pretty utilitarian, to give you a sense of time and life slowing down for a bit. While the Perth dining scene boasts a pretty laid-back vibe all round, there are some places more conducive of all-afternoon-lunch-affairs than others. So grab your friends, park up for a bite and wind up accidentally-on-purpose staying all day at one of these best spots for a long lunch in Perth!

We love a fancy wine list as much as the next person, but you know what we’re loving more at the moment? Saving our hard-earned cash (special thanks to the cozzie livs).

Perth’s has seriously leveled up in its all-you-can-eat game since its Sizzler days. While the cheesy, 90s buffet will always hold a special place in our hearts, we’ve all collectively moved on to bigger and better things. 

There are plenty of adventures to be had—from hunting down serial killers to stopping a viral outbreak.

It's no secret that we are a bit obsessed with the Perth Hills and all they have to offer, so we're just a teensy bit excited by the return of this cracking bonfire and mulled cider festival.

Fire up the group chat and start planning your next picnic. These are the best picnic spots in Perth.

Camping is good for the soul—fresh air, nature and a time to really relax and wind down. What’s even better than a few nights away sleeping under the stars? When you can do it all for free. Western Australia is home to some ridiculously cool camping grounds, and we’ve rounded up eight of our favourite free ones.

WA is home to some stunning landscapes, and not all of them are above ground. In fact, some of the most beautiful scenery can be found underground. Whether you’re looking for a day trip with the family or an outback adventure, there’s a cave out there just waiting for you to explore.

We don’t care what you say, looks do matter when it comes to finding a Perth bar you want to hang out in for hours on end. A good drinks list is important, yes. Food is also important. But once those two factors are taken care of (and really, they should be a given at any good bar), all anyone wants is to sit somewhere pretty and drink themselves silly—but not too silly, these are Perth’s most beautiful bars after all.

Whether you’re in it for the ultimate Sunday hangover cure or you just really like pork buns, dim sum is basically brunch from the Chinese Gods.
