Comments of Indian Ocean Hotel
M. S.
Such an eclectic mix of spaces from heavy metal stage area, undercover outdoor dining, poolside bungalow feel and motel on a grassy knoll. All this in the one quadrangle. Oops forgot the pool room. Friendly staff to boot. Loved it.
m. s.
First didn't get jug water in the room. Ph about 7 30pm ask if we can have water were told no room service had to go to bar to get water. The pillows weren't very good and couldn't sleep due to the pillows.on way out saw reception guy my partner told him re water he said we should have got a jug of water in the fridge.the guy said he would tell the manager
R. C.
Absolutely outstanding location. The location caters for all, singles, couples, families or groups of friends whether you are having a staycation or travelling, you are at the right place! Everything is within walking distance petrol stations/supermarket/hairdresser/barber/restaurants/bars/cafes/beaches including the bottle shop being at your door step along with the White Sands Tavern. There is ample parking including some secure bays.
The staff are friendly and so welcoming and have always been so accommodating! Reception is 24hours and there is a small selection of beverages and sweets you can purchase as well as merchandise which is priced affordably.
There are no stairs upon entering the building and there is a lift as well as stairs to access each floor.
The rooms are large, clean and some upgrades have begun including the bathrooms and smart TVs. Wifi is free!
There is a pool with pool access rooms available.
Overall, this hotel and the fantastic staff, provide affordable & convenient accommodation ensuring it has something for everyone in the heart of Scarborough!
m. s.
The room was nice for older hotel.there was no water in the fridge.
J. G.
Nice place, fresh beers and concerts. Dishes are nice as well. I will come more often. So far 100% enjoyed the night spent there.
T. R.
We had a great stay here. Reasonable price my daughter who came had her own room loved it so retro who ch I agreed. Staff great and room great only thing I would say is maybe have a couple comfy suggest is maybe a couple of comfy seats in room but we had a great time even at bar last night. Took me back to the days at the hotel and the bands will definitely come back 😊
T. Y.
Nice, cozy, wonderful staff and fun activities for all ages.
L. R.
For the age of the place it suited us just right for 1 nite before we head ed home the next day
B. H.
Great place to stay. Close to beach. Great Indi pub with live music attached. Terrific prices. Rooms clean and comfortable. Great staff. My fav hotel.
f.
one of the few places left that have a real vibe and not sterile like everything else now. place has old school atmosphere and actually plays live music. great during the day as well where you get some lunch have a beer and play pool in the back room. used to come here in early 20s for just that but I'm glad it still has the same feeling as always and soul. i hope it stays open forever so people growing up now can get a taste of how things were when it was still fun and didn't need phones to interact and actually danced in person.
N. J.
It's not fancy but it's like home. We wouldn't go every Friday otherwise.
P. T.
Located close to the centre of Scarborough and to Scarborough Beach this old hotel is clean and well looked after. The staff are great.
It offers free WiFi, in house movies and parking. Close to cafes, restaurants and bars
D. F.
Great place for socialising very good friendly staff room was a bit daggy but understandable being built in the 70s front counter staff were awesome as were the barstaff that's our go to place for weekend's away oh yeah best toasted sandwich I've ever had
M. O.
Really not sure why it’s taken me so long to get here. It’s a classic slice of Southern California ripped out of the early 70s and transplanted to WA. It really, really suits the Scarborough lifestyle. Great staff doing lots of basics right and the addition of Toastface Grillah is a master stroke. Perfect food for days and nights spent lounging in here. Probably my favourite pub in Perth
J. H.
This place is a hidden gem, so clean and great staff who want to help, anyone who says its 'dated ' doesn't get it ! It's got the coolest 50's vibe so wonderfully retro , the pool and bar area are the highlight
D. M.
Good old fashioned spacious motel ideally located near pubs, eateries and all that Scarborough beach has to offer. Not fancy but nice and affordably priced.
a. a.
Love the variety of events here, from drum & bass to house music to live bands and hip hop!
The staff never keep you waiting to long for a drink, and to speed things up more they remember your order!
The convenience of a hotel, good entertainment, bottleshop, pool, and beach just at your footstep, what more could you ask for!
s. s.
Stayed here for 1 week. Had a fantastic time. Staff were excellent. Locals who visited bar downstairs were very friendly. Live music kept us entertained. meals were excellent as well. If you're looking for the grand palace for accommodation, this is not the place for you. The Indie is a step back in time to the way a motel was in the 1970's and thats what I loved about it, nothing flash but clean tidy motel room, a credit to the house cleaning staff. Next time I visit Perth, this is where I will call home again..... Well done Indian Ocean Hotel, I look forward to returning one day, don't change a thing :)
w. w.
Room area great but there are limited power points and the one can not be accessed to use. The shower is ok, but the head is very very close to the wall and makes having a shower very hard.
p. h.
stayed the night of the 25th january hotel was fully booked. apart from the cricket kids knocking on each others doors there was no noise to be heard. double glazed windows work a treat. room clean and tidy. 5 min walk to beach, complimentary breakfast. staff friendly .
L. A.
This is a wonderful smsll hotel
In Scarborough Perth. 2 blocks from the ocean
Very clean and comfortable. Staff from Marcus the Manager down are friendly and polite. Good brekky, lovely bar and pool area. Highly recommend it. I will be back.
E. W.
Great place for a catch up with your friends. Live music. Good food.
J. M.
Room was clean and today. Based good size and comfortable. Staff friendly. Did not think the price reflected the age of the building and rooms. Would not stay again for $160 booked direct.
M. V. H.
Great night good cover bands
c. p.
Breakfast orange juice absolutely aweful.
Smoking area is beside the swimming pool so forget about going for a swim.
TV remote broken.
Run down but clean.
Friendly staff.
Good price for the room.
Would we stay again?
Probably yes because for less than $100 a night it's reasonable.
A. L.
Nice place, good clean rooms, nice staff, good food, popular with the young scene at the bar and pool(under 40) and very comfortable within a good price range, so I give the Indian Ocean Hotel 5 stars.
Only a couple of blocks away from Restaurants, bars and the beach that goes down past Swanbourne, all within a couple of minutes easy walk, from $90 per night and you can smoke on their balconies that are apart of your room but only on selected floors as the rest are non smoking so if you smoke don't be ashamed to ask as here you won't be shunned or get spoken to like a leper as there is ashtrays provided outside on your balcony.
Well worth the stay for all ages really as I'm early 50's
X. H.
The food is good, I had steak and chips and it was cooked exactly how I asked. Variety of bevvies on tap, for cheap. They have 2x pool tables, a swimming pool and a spa. They hold pool parties regularly and often provide party goers with snacks like iceypoles and watermelon. The pool is often full of inflatable lollypops and doughnuts :)
m.
Love this old fashioned hotel. It used to be my regular old local 25-30 yrs ago.Recently had my first stay in 16 yrs, and guess what, yep unbeleivebly nothing has changed, although they have made some great modern improvements since 2002. Such as modern A/C very effcient and quiet. modern LED tv, and the best improvement is the full double glazed glass, which would not have been cheap. As the hotel has regular live music playing every weekend, the new glazing blocks out noise by 100%. The owners of this fine establishment have a wonderful philosophy " If it aint broke, dont fix it" Staff are friendly and helpful. rates are more than reasonable, restauraunt & menu is pretty good value & quality. Sure the place is old, the rooms and decor is still 1970`s. But this place has old skool charm & character that you cant find these days, and most important is the housekeeping girls still keep the rooms to a high standard of cleanliness and hygiene. Trust me you will enjoy your stay here. Location is great, beach, shops, restaurants & public transport around the corner. When visiting Perth, this is my place to stay. Keep it up Indi Bar. UPDATE 14/3/20. In response to a recent 3 star slightly negative review, OWNERS, please dont update the hotel. The 70`s style look suits it perfectly and thats the reason most guests including myself love it the way it is and keep coming back. In my opinion, "If it aint broke, dont fix it"
D. H.
Great place 👌 the best spa eveerr
H. P.
Been to several gigs here and the last one watching a pearl jam tribute show was no exception. Reasonably priced drinks and cool vibe. I don't know if anybody ever uses the pool or spa area - that's interesting!
C. H.
Was a nice place, was not happy that there was no air con in the bathroom, and the breakfast, when we went down there was very little left to drink, and nearly no milk left. Other then that, the staff was great, looked after us with room service, and happy to give us extra towels when we asked.
J. D.
Comfortable clean place to stay. You can pay cash with a moderate deposit ( 1 or 200 bucks) and it's pretty affordable. We stay about once a month cos it's so close to Scarborough foreshore and pubs /restaurants and also has the popular Indi Bar in same building on ground floor next to hotel reception and dining area. At reception you can also purchase alcohol and other essentials. Beds very comfortable. Oh, and free WiFi if course
C. O.
Love the Indian Ocean Hotel. An absolute ICON of Perth and do incredible fish taco's. Thursday night open mic night and their pool parties are maybe the best thing that Perth has.
T. D.
The food is expensive for what it is, limited choice, when there is live music it is far too loud and overtakes the whole pub. Not overly friendly bar staff and queue to get drinks far too long as they need more bar staff.
B. B.
Addition of Toastface Grill is an awesome move.
Chips and other sides are nice though, I'm the type of guy who is happy with a drink in one hand and a toastie in the other while watching the footy over lunch out.
We picked up the CheeseSteak (perfect for cold mornings and late nights) and a LambDona (perfect for everyday anyday)
m. s.
Really cool venue, under new management so it's a lot better than it used to be. Good place to see bands and chill out outside. Beer and wine list could be tweaked. but overall it's good.
M. W.
Friendly staff, good food, good drinks, great atmosphere.
K. S.
Very affordable accommodation, free wifi that works fine, when I was reading all the other reviews I was expecting a lot worse. Continental breakfast is good, we got an early check in (10am) at no extra cost.
Very close to the beach, bed and pillows are comfy with extra pillows in the cupboard, the only impractical thing is there is only 1 tea spoon.
Would recommend to anyone looking for affordable accommodation.
T. N.
The hotel isn't the newest but their from rates are very fair. Parking is free, the rooms are older in style and decor but they are clean and neat with reverse cycle air-conditioning. Bathrooms are small and compact with basic toiletries provided. For cigarette smokers an added bonus with certain floors allowing smoking on your own balcony. Attached to the Indi Bar and Bistro allows for room service including alcohol (but no BYO alcohol in the hotel rooms as it is licenced premises.) Also free WiFi and a stones throw from Scarborough.
l. r.
Good price and very nice menu.
Only down side was we weren’t allowed to smoke on the balcony. Other smoking rooms booked out.
C. B.
The staff are sensational and Jennifer and Zara work harder than Trojans. We loved the vibe from the Indi Bar, and our room was very clean and well kept. We will definitely be returning to this highly atmospheric location, again.
E. S.
Super friendly staff, super delish food and a fun laid back vibe. Amazing live music with a great sounding room!
D. B.
This hotel closely reflects the era in heralds from; there’s a glamourless charm to its decor and is reassuringly straight-forward. Quiz nights with their generous prizes, bargain pizzas and $7 pints make Monday nights in Scarborough worth going out on.
A. W.
Great old school bar. Good atmosphere and really nice staff. One of my favorite bars by far!
J. L.
A very cool pub and I was shocked at how good the food was! I never would have expected such a good feed at this somewhat out of the way place. Well worth the Uber ride.
Say g'day to Marcus the manager and he'll be sure to look after you.
K. T.
Awesome place ! Young crowd , great beer selection, and amazing indy artists getting up in open mic night. Had a blast.
E. R.
Simple but extremely comfortable, clean and complete. The rooms come with air conditioning and heating, microwave, electric kettle and a fridge so you could buy some groceries and heat up and eat. There is an excellent bar with great beers on tap and live band performances at nite. Walking distance from Scarborough beach and very reasonable 😊😊😊👍👍👍
M. P.
Nice place, amazing staff! Always good music on
C. K.
Much better stay than the look of the place makes you expect. I found everything (especially the service) very professional. The mattresses are a bit too soft but I guess that comes down to personal preference.
P. O.
They do such a good food and friendly service. I love going there.
K. P.
We stayed here for one night before heading to the rendezvous up the road, for a great budget option at $93 for a night the room was clean, facilities were great and staff so helpful, thanks Hannah (I'm writing this review from mettams pool that you recommended for a snorkel and it's great :)) the calamari for $10 entree was huge and so tasty. If it was a new hotel it would easily be 5 star but the hotel is old Skool but not dodgey, recommended for a good budget option.
S. D.
Awesome venue, live music, heaps of people. Played there tonight and had an awesome time
J. H.
Chilled, relaxed pub/bar & bistro with great atmosphere. Even has a pool!! Retro feel to their decor suits it well
T. P.

C. S.
Terrific retro motel good prices helpful staff great toasted sandwiches will stay again
R. L.
Rooms were good , I liked the bar downstairs beer was cold & food was good. Pool area just outside ya can take drinks 👍
E. P.
We love staying here. Friendly staff, great location, very chilled
J. M.
Stayed here for 1 night. Easiest way to describe the experience really has to be "you get what you pay for". We needed a cheap place to sleep and the room delivered on that requirement. It had running hot water, a tv and 2 beds to sleep on, can't really ask for much more than that.
h. n.
Always a good vibe, friendly staff, great food never disappointed

S. L.
Cool live venue regular drinks on tap and bar service. Pool room and swimming area!
C. M.
Came for the Lamb shank special and it was really good. There was live music which is nice, but the cover charge is always a turn off. Good place to stay for some drinks if you like the live music.
N. S.
Best local live venue in town , thanks for supporting local music !!!
s. a.
Great venue, really mixed clientele, chilled locals, students, hotel patrons and tourists it a really vibrant and mixed bunch. Great times to be had on a Thursday night at the open mic nights and Sunday sessions always go down a treat.
P. D. H. J.
Great to see a bar putting on DJS and live acts that aren't just cover bands.

Chilled vibe, reasonably priced drinks, alternative music and great staff.

C. W.
A great venue, support your local live music!
B. J.
If you are looking for something different in Scarborough then this is it. Good music and agreat vibe. A place for young and old.
A normal pub !!!! Says it all
M. D.
The last bastion of a Authentic place to go out. Have a drink listen to live live music and a place where you can just be yourself. No one cares what you are wearing or your social status. Great new management. I give it 4.5 bananas out of 5 bananas.

M. T.

Very friendly and lovely staff, so clean, and got nice cheap prices, the room is not very awesome but for the money it's very fair, and keeping it hygiene just makes it wonderful and cozy
G. H. (. /. F.

S. R.
Meet up with my Best Friend and her family which stayed at your Hotel for 2 night's. Had dinner down in Restaurant/ indi bar. Food was absolutely delicious and would definitely be back. Thankyou.

C. C.
Older hotel, but budget friendly, great spot, with own bar and restaurant and pool. Staff very friendly, would stay there again.
M. F.
Good original live music venue with sit down dinner bistro and a range of tasty beers on tap. Friendly staff. Ample parking. Sports on big screens.
M. D. W.
Solid bar. Steaks were decent. Not sure I'd trek for it but definetly a good local spot or a good place to stay when travelling in town.
S. V.
Lovely grungy ambience. Great local bands and friendly crowd

I Love This Legendary Iconic place.
Got the Old Family & Friends Vibe

Excellent place, positioned perfectly, very affordable and very friendly helpful staff. This is our first visit here and now this is where we will return to.

Awesome food, wicked staff there too they're always happy to see repeat customers. They also have really cool body and face painting there and the best pool parties ever! I saw Aphrodite there a couple of weeks ago wicked party, ludicrously cheap to get in what more can you ask for?
A. T.
Great value as a stay. One of Perths most iconic band venues. 🙂👍

Edited: 2/5 mashed potato was received after a short 30 minute wait. Tasted good. Would return for more mash podato

Small dive bar. Cheapish drinks of average quality. Very good for live music depending on who is playing.

K. M.
Just a shame they didn't have keyring to buy even though their sitesays so
A. C.
Cozy venue near Scsrborough Beach . Reminiscent of 70's & 80's pub rock scene. .. probably why the demographic is a bit older than average. .. Great variety of music and bar security staff are amiable ... but will react accordingly if patrons are out of order.
T. G.

P. W.
Friendly service. Good Nachos. Good Guinness.
C. E. B.
It's one of my favourite live music venues. And the food's good too!
F. S.
I've always enjoyed meals here prior to a gig. The menu has changed and Tonight's rump steak with blue cheese sauce was absolutely amazing! Had a sneaky taste of a grilled chicken parmigiana that also impressed! Honestly, DO NOT FEAR THIS PLACE! The only reason I rate it 4 out of 5 is because the staff didn't shine my shoes or kiss my arse. And life isn't perfect 😜
D. P.
Really good food (chef) Entainment is A1
N. L.
You gotta go on Thursday's to see a band called manic manifesto
K. H.
Awesome place to stay awesome food and services be back again next time we are up that way .
E. G. (. W.
Had a great time at the Indi Bar on Saturday night and it was topped off by getting a room with a view! Icing on the cake was cheese toasties from room service after an amazing show by Caravana Sun. All the good things! Definitely recommend playing & staying the night!
J. S.
The worker had no idea what a shower chair was, so I asked her for a plastic chair. So maybe some training in physical mobility and ways to help might be of some help?

The Indi Bar is a 'Scabs' institution. I don't know what I'd do without it. Affordable food, drinks, gigs, and awesome 'backyard' vibes, all within walking distance of any respectable Scabs residence. Used function room hire there once for a party and was a great, smooth experience.

Bistro means small restaurant. There's not a huge menu but what's on offer is delicious. I had tasty tender scotch fillet steak rare. YUM! Friends had prawn, fish and chicken dishes. So too was the best cheese cake in the world. The service was excellent and in a relaxed nice atmosphere.

The Indi Bar in Scarborough, Perth is the most fun, grungiest place! They have live music in form of Open Mic nights. I am a regular performer at this venue as I've had encores here! Thank you Indi Bar!!!

Indi has had a make over and I’m obsessed with how cool and retro it is! The food is always amazing too. Biggest parmy in Perth! Yummiest fish tacos, and the market fish if the day was salmon and cooked perfectly.

The drum and Bass pool parties put on this summer in collaboration with 'Extended Play' featuring local and international artists are amazing. Great security and venue staff, homely feel and great vibes. Family friendly and a great cheap party to go to . Every time i come here its memorable ( friend winning $500 on the slots or just dancing in the pool with all the crew on a nice summers day). Doesnt get any better in Perth . Only thing I dont like is the ID scanning at the front entrance this is an invasion of privacy , but to be honest the security do a very good job and Perth does not have the safest pubs/clubs so if you have anxiety this place is totally chill. Great margaritas !! : )

The Indi bar is the soul of Scarborough and a seasoned relic of what it once was before the mass gentrification of Perth.
Your average punter would be surprised at some of the talent that has played here over the years.
A few characters with a chip on their shoulder but certainly not as rough as it used to be.
