Perth the most expensive for a hotel room?

[markis10]

Not so much when there are two guests who, due to status, get complimentary breakfast as well as free internet

PC is good for 'free' nights - but it does lack guaranteed, even on an award stay, tangible stay bennies when compared to other programs like HHonors and SPG.

Things can happen with PC, like two Plats getting the "Presidential suite" at the Canberra Crown Plaza last weekend on a four night Cash and points stay - such is not gauranteed - they still had to pay for breakfast at the hotel.

It all comes down to what the value of the room is in points, I dare say 170k of HH points is going to cost a lot more than 100k of PC points, the difference more than making up for a free breakfast/internet benefits which can be had at the local Meccas for $7 as a worst case scenario!

SWMBO Doesn't do Maccas!

Plus I want the stay/night credits.

Sounds like i need to start renting out a room on AirBnB... I'm willing to accept the bargain basement price of $100 a night...

Unfortunately I have no loyalty program in place, but maybe i can start working on one...

No real surprises...just like everything else in Perth...a total rip-off! I guess that's the one advantage of living here. I'm not likely to require a hotel room here

I am not a fan of Mecca either
