DoubleTree by Hilton Perth Waterfront

Hilton (NYSE: HLT) today announced the opening of DoubleTree by Hilton Perth Waterfront, an 18-story, 229-room newly developed hotel, which is the latest addition to Hilton's expanding portfolio in Western Australia. DoubleTree by Hilton Perth Waterfront is owned by SKS Group and managed by Hilton.

DoubleTree by Hilton Perth Waterfront features uninterrupted Swan River and city views, and is strategically located beside landmark waterfront development Elizabeth Quay, which connects Perth's CBD to the river. It is walking distance to many of Perth's most popular tourist attractions, including the Western Australian Museum, Bell Tower, and Kings Park Botanic Gardens. Ferries that take visitors to Perth Zoo and Rottnest Island are right on the hotel's doorstep. The city's international airport is just 13 kilometers or 20 minutes' drive from the hotel.

The hotel's opening incorporated an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander smoking ceremony and a ribbon-cutting ceremony. It was officiated by Perth's Lord Mayor Basil Zempilas, Windi Sim, managing director, SKS Group, and David Constantine, area general manager, Hilton Western Australia.

The hotel enjoys many unique design features, notably the building's extension out over the Swan River. Local artist Tom Muller designed an exterior artwork named Aqua Lux, which translates to 'light of the water'. The artwork spans across the entire perimeter of the building and was designed to emulate the many facets and moods of the Swan River.

DoubleTree by Hilton Perth Waterfront offers exceptional dining experiences through its three food and beverage outlets, where there is a strong focus on sustainability and local produce sourced directly from farm to table.

At 18 Knots rooftop bar, guests also enjoy 360-degree views, whilst they sip a drink beside the hotel's rooftop pool.
