The Spotlight on Best Western Plus Hotel Lord Forrest

Comfort Meets Convenience in the Heart of Bunbury

Modern and welcoming, Best Western Plus Hotel Lord Forrest offers a relaxed stay right in the Bunbury CBD. With a heated indoor pool, on-site dining, and balconies in every room, this hotel provides a mix of comfort and location. It's an easy walk to beaches, cafes, local attractions, and top entertainment venues, making it a favorite base for music lovers visiting the city.

Why Concert-goers love it

This hotel puts you close to the action—just a short stroll from the Bunbury Regional Entertainment Centre, local bars, and restaurants. Whether you're seeing a big show or a local gig, you can walk back to your room in minutes. It’s also centrally located for ride-shares or taxis after a late night. Rooms are well-soundproofed, offering a quiet place to crash after the music ends, and the 2:00 PM check-in makes it easy to arrive and settle in before showtime.

Who this Hotel is great for

  • Groups of friends looking to explore Bunbury and catch a gig
  • Solo travelers ticking a show off their bucket list
  • Couples planning a music-filled weekend getaway
  • Fans wanting a peaceful retreat after a high-energy concert
  • Budget-conscious guests who want value without compromising comfort

Food and Drink Options

The hotel’s on-site restaurant and bar offers convenient dining and drinks before or after a show. While there’s no 24-hour room service, nearby cafes and eateries stay open late, and there’s a minibar in-room for easy snacking. Breakfast is available for those who need a slow start the next morning after a late night out.

Nightlife Options

While there’s no live music in the hotel itself, its central location means you're just minutes from Bunbury’s nightlife. Stroll to nearby bars, pubs, and lounges for a few drinks before the show—or wind down after with a nightcap at the hotel bar, which serves a solid selection of local wines and craft beers.

What People Say

Guests love the spacious rooms, indoor pool, and friendly staff. Reviewers frequently praise the location for being close to entertainment venues, restaurants, and the beach. Many also mention the cleanliness and comfort of the rooms, as well as the bonus of having a balcony to enjoy some fresh air.

Areas for Improvement

Some guests note that the decor could use a modern refresh, and a few mention limited parking during busy weekends. Breakfast isn't always included in the rate, so double-check when booking. But overall, most agree these are minor issues compared to the location perks.

The Bottom Line

Best Western Plus Hotel Lord Forrest is a top pick for concert-goers thanks to its CBD location, walkability to venues, and comfortable post-show atmosphere.

Disappointing - 2.0 out of 5

Dunn Sun, 27 July 2025

Disappointing

Liked: I felt for a Hotel of this nature the room would be a mit more homely and have more than a spoon to use in the kitchen. No mugs for coffee and it was cold.
Disliked: If the air conditioner worked better, and I know it was a Sunday afternoon but the place just felt deserted.

Good stay, would recommend

Liked: Staff were very friendly, rooms clean and tidy, it’s my second time staying there, and I would stay agaim
Disliked: Just a couple of minor things, TV in the bedroom is not a smart TV so can only watch free to air, didn’t seem to be an exhaust fan in the bathroom and the couches were a little uncomfortable and need to be a little bigger

Crap !!!!

Liked: Nothing - the bad stuff overshadowed anything I may have liked.
Disliked: The Air Con didn’t work and a persistent noise kept me awake mostly all night along with the window seal creaking during the wind. The portable heater supplied had the temp and fan control knobs where broken, and finally no WIFI as it wasn’t working for the whole time I was there.

Pleasant

Liked: Good location, serviceable room.
Disliked: Cleaning needs more attention to detail, teabags not replenished and teaspoon left dirty on sink, bathtub not cleaned. You will also hear every word of the neighbours tv through the walls if you attempt sleep before midnight
