Forrest Hall- Good Availability
A number of modern self-catering apartments are now available at Forrest Hall to visiting fellows, researchers and academics for short stays for a minimum stay of 5 nights and maximum of two months (60 days).
The serviced studio rooms and two bedroom apartments offer panoramic views of the Swan River, and are complemented by exceptional common spaces that include dedicated study and lounge areas; as well as a library and resource centre.
Forrest Hall offers a one-of-a-kind experience, distinct from conventional hotels / accommodation, as it is deeply rooted in a meticulously curated academic and community-oriented environment. The Forrest Research Foundation team vets each individual booking request, deciding on whether to extend an invitation to you / your proposed guest. The outcome will depend on several elements including a combination of availability, mix of current guests and the range of functions they are coordinating during your requested stay.

Wonil Hotel Perth – Handwritten Collection
Sitting on the banks of the Swan River, the Wonil Hotel Perth offers a variety of spacious accommodation options. Through a unique operating model, net revenue from the hotel will be reinvested back into the Forrest Research Foundation (FRF) to support current and prospective scholars and fellows.
The University of Western Australia (UWA) campus, wonil, a word used by the First Nations Noongar translates to 'Peppermint Tree'. These trees populate the banks of Swan River surrounding the hotel which has traditional medicinal value. The wonil is a symbol of learning that the hotel has embodied where guests and locals come together to live, learn, work and play with sustainable and locally sourced dining, multifunctional spaces and outdoor areas.
